Latin America is ripe for social and economic transformation

The opportunity and why we do it

With its rapidly growing and digitizing middle class of 311 million people, Latin America is facing a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Today, the region's lower and middle-class spend US$4T annually, which is 6.5x more than upper-income consumers in the region and comparable to the US middle-class spend.

Over the last twelve years, Polymath has remained constant in our mission to improve the lives of the emerging middle class in Latin America. Our product expertise and understanding of the lower and middle-class demographics allow Polymath to build scalable and incredibly impactful companies that are game-changers for financial inclusiveness, labor productivity, and gender equity.
