Arta Abasina

Global Shaper, Riga Hub

Passionate, inquisitive and driven - I am committed to forging connections across digital communities so that we can all share the benefits.

In recent years, I've been involved in the startup, technology and financial world. My journey into finance started by joining a venture capital firm Overkill VC as the Investment and Ops Director. In order to understand the specifics of startups and the work within them, I joined a fintech startup Nordigen as the Head of Operations.

My work has led me to become interested in financial well-being and equality topics. Almost one in three Latvians have no savings whatsoever. The pandemic has made the matters worse, with recent surveys showing a drop in financial literacy amongst all ages, especially students. To tackle this, I commenced a project named FinLit, aimed at increasing the financial literacy rate of Latvia.

We hope that our actions will serve as a strong stepping stone for Latvia and its citizens to reach a swift economic recovery and strive towards a financially-balanced future.
