The underserved are having a moment. And it is about time. There are more fintech companies targeting the non-prime community than ever before with better and less expensive products. The revolution in technology and data access is enabling fintech companies to go deeper into the underserved population than ever before. Our next guest on the Fintech One•On•One podcast is Ken Rees, the co-founder and CEO of Covered Care, a patient financing provider for the non-prime. Ken has spent the past two decades focused on this population and he has gathered his thoughts in the new book, Teetering. His insights paint a clear picture of the challenges of those living paycheck to paycheck and what we can do about it.Connect with Fintech One-on-One:Tweet me @PeterRentonConnect with me on LinkedInFind previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

You have probably heard the terms DeFi, which is an abbreviation for Decentralized Finance and NFTs, meaning Non-Fungible Tokens. They have been covered in the news a great deal in the past month or more. So, I wanted to do an episode where we do a deep dive into these topics to find out not just what they are but what they might mean for the future of finance. My next guest on the Fintech One•On•One podcast has a front row seat to this the changes we are seeing with DeFi and NFTs.

The biggest decision in anyone's life is the decision to start a family. For the growing segment of the population that can't do so naturally there is, of course, fertility treatments. Now, this is an exciting, scary and often heart wrenching time. And for many people the financial burden for these treatments is too much and they have to turn elsewhere for support. Our next guest on the Fintech One•On•One podcast is Claire Tomkins, the CEO and Founder of Future Family. Claire knows firsthand the joy and the devastation that this journey can entail but she when she saw how backward the whole process was and how no lender was focused on this segment she decided to do something about it. While Future Family provides financing for fertility treatments her vision goes way beyond being just a financial partner for this important segment of the population.Connect with Fintech One-on-One:Tweet me @PeterRentonConnect with me on LinkedInFind previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

We have heard many times on this show and in the media that last year was a good one when it comes to savings rates and loan delinquencies. People were not spending as much and they received government stimulus to help with their savings. So, when I received a survey last month that showed the exact opposite of this consensus, I wanted to learn more. So, while those generalizations are true, there is a segment of the population that has been hit brutally hard by the pandemic and in this episode we find out more about them. Our next guest on the Fintech One•On•One podcast is Leigh Phillips, the CEO of SaverLife. SaverLife is a non-profit dedicated to helping build financial security for those people who need help saving money. They do this in a number of ways, including a gamification approach that makes saving fun.Connect with Fintech One-on-One:Tweet me @PeterRentonConnect with me on LinkedInFind previous Fintech One-on-One episodes
