On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights our expert hosts, Ross Gallagher and Kate Moody, are joined by some great guests to talk about the ever-growing overlap between big tech and finance. We’ve seen no shortage of companies like Google, Apple, and Facebook in the news over the last year, and as technology becomes more central in our relationship with financial services, big tech will only have a more critical role to play in the future of our industry. So we want to take a step back and understand exactly what big tech’s role in finance currently is, and where they sit on the banking battlefield. What are the use cases? What are the risks? And will we eventually have to do our banking through a VR headset? To discuss this I am joined by a mighty panel of industry experts.

Our expert host, Kate Moody, is joined by some great guests to talk about how personalisation in banking. Personalisation was one of the key themes that emerged from this year's annual 11:FS Pulse report, which is out now at 11fs.com/report  In the report, our experts, along with others from Monzo, JPMorgan and Nationwide, emphasised the importance of tailored financial services and how customer-centricity will win the day in 2024. But this personalisation is only possible through real-time data, AI & machine learning, by harnessing behavioural data, and many other recent technological advances which are transforming the financial services landscape. So we want to dive deeper into this. What does personalisation in banking even mean? How can it really improve the products or services being offered? And what are the consequences when it goes wrong? This week's guests include: Joe Colchester, Head of Product at 11:FS Pulse Ross Logan, Chief Product Officer at Snoop Megan Cooper, Chief Product Officer at Cle

Our expert host, Ross Gallagher, are joined by some great guests to talk about how to build and keep trust in financial services. The 2008 financial crisis was a pretty pivotal time, to say the least. Suddenly, big banks could fail and our money just didn’t feel as safe as it once did. Trust in the whole system suffered a hit which many thought was irreparable. However, the industry has since gone through a transformative period - improved regulation, more effective governance, and a huge exercise rebuilding that trust with the customer. In a world that now looks so very different from 2008, we want to tackle the tricky matter of trust head on. How do financial services build trust? How do they keep it? And what makes one FS provider more trustworthy than another? This week's guests include: Jordan Sinclair, President at Robinhood UK Monica Hovsepian, Head of Financial Services Industry at OpenText Aidan Rushby, CEO at Carmoola --------------------------------------- Fintech Insider by 11:FS is a bi-we

Our expert hosts, 11:FS CEO David M.

This week's guests include: Kiaan Pillay, CEO & Co-Founder at Stitch Andrew Escobar, former Director of Open Finance at MX in Canada About this episode Open banking allows financial institutions to share data and have a more globalised, connected banking system. It enables customers to share personal financial information securely, which can broaden the products and services available to them. For example, personal finance apps help individuals to manage their finances, track spending habits, save and access other financial services, all from one place.
