Access to #banking in Central & Eastern Europe is shaped by trust in #institutions, geography & socio-economic factors. Greater trust encourages account ownership, yet rural & lower-income areas remain financially excluded. Excellent presentation by Alexandra Sandu at #RSAWinter

Really interesting presentations in the "Designing the Regions, Cities and Rural Areas of the Future", which I was the chair. Digital skills in the countryside, Cellular Automata for analysing urban expansion, geography matters to financial access, and so on. #RSAWinter
