Fintechs increasingly selling their loans to private credit investors, largely due to rising costs of capital & interest rate hikes. This may increase integration of #fintech and traditional finance but also heighten risks in the private #credit market ft.com/content/206e07…
Kenyan diaspora #remittances hit a record high in a single month in August at US$427 million. The United States continues to be the largest source of remittances to #Kenya, while #Tanzania stands out as the leading African contributor. kenyanwallstreet.com/diaspora-inflo…

This fantastic special issue is now fully published! 🙏 @BernardsNick @MalcolmCV @DaiviRTaylor for an excellent coordination. Glad to have contributed a piece on how the institutional design of digital humanitarian projects shapes power asymmetries

As promised, short thread on the articles in this SI: Our intro (link👇), shows how efforts to resolve myriad sustainability challenges with new tech are depoliticising, and argues for a research agenda challenging these dynamics. 1/
At very long last, @DaiviRTaylor, @MalcolmCV and my special issue of @envplanc on ‘repoliticizing the technological turn in sustainability governance’ is out! Will do a proper thread on all the articles later, but for now here’s the intro (open access): journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
