In a recent conversation with Economy Middle East, I shared my thoughts on the rise of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services in the UAE and KSA. With the rise and growth of fintech in the region, BNPL services are part of a broader shift towards a cashless society, enhancing financial transparency. Fintech, including BNPL, is a pathway to a financial services industry that is more accessible to the masses, technology-driven and enabling other industries. Additionally, the shift in consumer habits from cash-on-delivery towards digital payments was significantly enabled through the introduction of BNPL services on to e-commerce platforms, encouraging and enabling the shift. Around 55% of the region's population is under the age of 30 - and BNPL services appeal to a younger, tech-savvy population because it offers an easy, interest-free way to manage payments. Additionally, it contributes to financial inclusion because it provides access to individuals who don't necessarily have way to traditional financial institutions. In a region where many consumers are unbanked or underbanked, offering them the opportunity to make purchases they might otherwise be unable to afford is valuable.

The latest on Sustainability from PwC Middle East: In a recent discussion with local media outlets, we discussed PwC’s recent sustainability survey, PwC Middle East has highlighted a significant shift towards sustainable practices among Middle Eastern companies.

The introduction of top-level sustainability roles is becoming more common. This indicates the region's commitment to tackling sustainability matters as a priority. As we see a wider adoption of sustainability at the C-suite level, the focus is now on making substantial progress. Investments in sustainability are not only seen as responsible but also increasingly viewed as profitable. #Sustainability #MiddleEast #PwC #NetZero
