The Financial Solutions Lab - Apps for Economic

Darin Pastor currently serves as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone Financial Group, Inc. Prior to this, Darin Pastor was at JPMorgan Chase, where he was awarded for #2 Overall Performance in Banking. Besides continuing a noteworthy tradition of investment, JPMorgan Chase supports a wide range of philanthropic initiatives, including the Financial Solutions Lab (FinLab).

As part of JPMorgan Chase's commitment to corporate responsibility, FinLab seeks solutions to global financial insecurities. The group tackles this problem through investing in innovative products and community education initiatives that help people make wiser financial choices.

FinLab recently completed research into software applications that could potentially make consumers much more fiscally savvy. The developments included Digit, which algorithmically tracks a user’s daily spending habits, periodically moving small amounts of money from the user’s checking account into savings. Another app, Even, helps people who have irregular earnings create and maintain a fixed budget, as if they had a steady salary. The group commented that a single app may not be a panacea for financial insecurity, yet technology plays a vital role in the solution.
