The problem

Financial activity tells a bigger story than a bank statement.

Traditional financial systems were built around formal banking data. That leaves out a lot of real, verifiable economic activity, the kind that shows how someone actually earns, spends and manages money day to day.

The traditional picture

  • Relies mainly on formal bank records
  • Misses informal and mobile-based income
  • Treats a thin file as no history at all
  • Slow to update as circumstances change

The MEFI identity

  • Draws on broader, real financial activity
  • Recognises informal and everyday income
  • Builds a history from what already exists
  • Reflects activity as it happens
The MEFI concept

One identity. A broader picture.

MEFI brings together the financial and economic signals that matter, income, behaviour, business activity and resilience, into a single identity that stays with the person or business it belongs to.

How it works

A simple, three-step journey

01

Connect

Financial activity is shared securely, from mobile money to everyday transactions, without handing over sensitive personal data.

02

Analyse

MEFI looks at patterns over time, how regularly someone earns, how consistent their activity is, and how long it has been sustained.

03

Build

A signed, tamper-proof identity is produced that individuals and businesses can use with lenders and partners they trust.
