The U.S. is Lagging in Innovation: Fink

The BlackRock CEO also talked about emerging markets like Brazil, India, and parts of Africa that are seeing advances in payment systems and financial inclusion. In contrast, he argued that developed markets like the United States are lagging in payment innovation.

“In many emerging markets – like India, Brazil, and parts of Africa – we are witnessing dramatic advances in digital payments, bringing down costs and advancing financial inclusion. By contrast, many developed markets, including the U.S., are lagging behind in innovation, leaving the cost of payments much higher,” Fink stated.
