Data from Mexico's financial products watchdog Condusef shows that the accounts would be the highest-yielding ones offered in the local financial sector. Other Latin American fintechs like Brazil's Nubank (NUN.MX) and Argentina's UALA have also launched savings accounts this year in Mexico, where data from the national statistics agency showed less than half of the population has savings accounts. The Mexican arms of Nubank and UALA both offer 9% yields on their savings accounts, already much higher than most banks. Stori expects to reach 3 million savings account holders by the end of next year, said its General Manager of New Products Sergio Duenas.

MEXICO CITY, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Mexican fintech Stori on Thursday announced the acquisition of MasCaja, a financial firm that will provide it a license to broaden its product portfolio in a market where many lack access to financial services. "We want to take the next step to boost financial inclusion," Stori co-founder Marlene Garayzar told Reuters. Stori, which reached unicorn status last year, already offers credit cards with lines starting at 500 Mexican pesos ($28), in a country where government data shows less than 35% of the adult population has formal credit. Earlier this year, Stori said it had reached 2 million users. ($1 = 17.5722 Mexican pesos)Reporting by Valentine Hilaire; Editing by Leslie AdlerOur Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles.
