    Brief

    Fair4All Finance is developing a new multi-year Technology Fund (approximately £5 million) launching in early 2027 to support financial inclusion in the UK. The Fund will accelerate innovative technology-enabled solutions for financially underserved and excluded consumers. Fair4All Finance seeks external support to inform the Fund's design and prioritisation through evidence-based analysis. Suppliers should provide analysis of: technology trends relevant to financial inclusion; market gaps in current solutions; and priority themes for intervention. This is a horizon scanning exercise to shape the strategic direction of a significant government-backed initiative aligned to the 2025 Financial Inclusion Strategy.
