…Why 7 out of 10 can’t afford a CedisPay Loan and how CedisPay Budget App can change that
A recent discovery by CedisPay has revealed that 7 out of 10 or 70 per cent of Ghanaians are unable to afford a loan due to financial constraints.
According to the research, poor expense tracking, lack of financial literacy, and inaccessible financial tools are the primary culprits. This alarming truth has prompted CedisPay to take action, developing the Financial Wellbeing Budget App to empower individuals to take control of their finances and improve their financial health.
The CedisPay Financial Wellbeing Budget App addresses these issues by providing a personalized dashboard, budget management features, insights and learning tools, and a financial wellbeing calculator.
“This is about a significant challenge we’ve identified: the inability of 70% of Ghanaians to afford a CedisPay loan due to financial constraints. But it’s also about the solution we’ve created to help you overcome this challenge—the CedisPay Financial Wellbeing Budget App. This powerful tool is designed to address the root causes of financial vulnerability and provide you with the resources you need to achieve financial stability and freedom,” the research revealed.
By using the app, individuals can break the cycle of debt, build financial resilience, achieve financial independence, and access loans with confidence. A 10-step personal finance blueprint is also provided to help users maximize the benefits of the app.
According to the CedisPay team, they embarked on a journey to understand why so many Ghanaians are financially vulnerable and they discovered that many Ghanaians struggle with tracking their expenses, leading to overspending and financial stress. Also, the absence of financial planning skills prevents individuals from reaching their long-term goals.
They also uncovered that existing financial management tools are often too complex, expensive, or simply out of reach for the average Ghanaian.
