In this episode of Shakin’ Hands, Jack Moran interviews Felipe Echandi, the co-founder and CEO of Cuanto. The conversation dives deep into Latin America’s fragmented digital economy and how Cuanto is building tools to empower small merchants to sell online and through social media. Felipe also shares his experience serving on Panama’s Banking Superintendency, helping reform outdated regulations to match the speed of internet innovation, and describing what it was like to be a Y Combinator recipient in 2019. Together, they explore the challenges of financial inclusion, the dominance of global platforms, and the opportunity to create a localized commerce ecosystem in Latin America.
