The Banco del Bienestar, Sociedad Nacional de Crédito, Institución de Banca de Desarrollo, is the main disperser of resources from the federal government's social programs. As a social bank, it promotes and facilitates savings among Mexicans, inside and outside the country, as well as access to first and second floor financing equally for individuals and companies, thus promoting financial inclusion, which is carried out with a gender perspective and taking into account indigenous communities. In addition, it promotes the use, design and promotion of technological innovation in order to provide better financial conditions and payment ecosystems for Mexicans whose access to banking services is non-existent or occurs in unfavorable conditions. For this, the Banco del Bienestar has a presence in the most distant and highly marginalized towns, directly through a wide network of branches, and indirectly through institutional or commercial agreements or alliances with correspondents and private companies, as well as with cooperatives and savings banks that are part of "L @ Red de la Gente". All this in order to be "the bank of Mexicans".
