Epidemic Exposure, Financial Technology, and the Digital Divide

Epidemic Exposure, Financial Technology, and the Digital Divide

We ask whether epidemic exposure leads to a shift in financial technology usage and who participates in this shift. We exploit a dataset combining Gallup World Polls and Global Findex surveys for some 250,000 individuals in 140 countries, merging them with information on the incidence of epidemics and local 3G internet infrastructure.
