Abstract— The presence of information and communication technologies (ICT) in different productive, economic and social sectors is not unknown to the educational field. ICT have transformed teaching-learning processes and stimulated innovation. In Latin American, the term financial innovation is being implemented to describe integral solutions in processes, products and services, although leaving aside scarce ICT use and financial education. This paper aims to examine the state of ICT use in Latin America, as well as the state of financial literacy and the importance of education based on technology as a strategy for development and inclusion. Linear regression and bibliometric follow-up are used to determine the incidence of the amount of Internet use in poor financial education, due to low coverage, inclusion, public policies and technological infrastructure.

Index Terms— ICT, finantial education, technology.
