  • On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, host Benjamin Ensor is joined by Wio Bank CEO Jayesh Patel.

    Profitability is what every fintech strives for, but it took Starling Bank and Revolut over seven years to achieve it, and Monzo has just announced its first annual profit in their 2024 annual report. So how did a digital bank based in the UAE achieve profitability after just one year?

  • On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, host David Barton-Grimley is joined by some great guests to take a look at Australian fintech.

    It’s been a wild couple of years for the whole global fintech industry, and Australia is no exception. We’ve seen a big slowdown in new startups, and a pretty severe drop in investment.

    So, is the optimism still strong with those who are in this space? Well we knew just who to ask… 

    Fintech Australia, the country's fintech advocacy group, exists to promote the interests of Australian fintechs across the country and the globe. Earlier this year they went through a leadership shake up, with previous chair and Australian fintech hero Simone Joyce announcing that she’ll be leaving her full time role there. 

    This week's guests:
    Simone Joyce, CEO/Founder of PayPa Plane & outgoing chair of Fintech Australia
    Sarah Gorman, new Chair of Fintech Australia and Head of Growth & Marketing, at DAS (Digital Agriculture Services)

  • Our expert host Kate Moody is joined by some great guests in the second of our two part special, 'How to Buy a Bank'.
    In the previous episode, David Brear and guests covered what actually happens when one bank decides to buy another. So in this episode we are diving deep inside banks, to uncover what really goes on in the organisations themselves during a merger or acquisition, once the ink is dry and the businesses now have to work together.
    The process of actually combining two banks can take months, even years, as departments, systems, processes, and people are brought together under one group.
    Not only do banks need to consider the practical things, like which IT system to use, or how to get everyone from one email server to another, but there are also wider cultural challenges.
    How do you combine two workforces, and two ways of working, into one harmonious company set up for long term success?

    This week's guests include:

    Dave Morris, Global Head of Technology at 11:FS

    Rupy Malizia, Chief Strategic Transformation Officer at HSBC Innovation Banking

    Mariela Hunter, a Fractional COO


    Highlights from this episode:

    How early in a merger should you think about the tech? (04:30)

    The hardest thing to manage about a transition (09:25)

    The focus is 90% on tech and data is an afterthought (14:30)

    What are the dependencies around a bank? (19:20)

    Taking staff on the journey (24:30)

    Leveraging feedback loops (28:45)

    Merging teams in separate locations (34:55)

    Company culture and benefits (37:20)
