The Fintech and Digital Banking Podcast
In our ever-evolving world, hit by digitalization on all sides, companies are being challenged to keep up with the high pace that competition and evolution demand of them. The banking sector is no exception to that—quite the contrary: It is at the very center of digital evolution. Over the last decade, the financial services industry has undergone more transformation than ever.
The pace is set and advanced by customers and their consumption habits. Digital native customers don’t set foot in branches anymore and instead expect a seamless digital banking experience—mobile first or only. They want financial services to be as easily accessible as watching a series, calling a cab, or ordering food. While incumbent players struggle to deliver on the changing customer needs, a multitude of new technology-driven youngsters have arisen and are on a mission to fulfill all these needs: the fintechs.
But what exactly is it that that successful fintechs do better?
How are they able to develop within months what incumbents can’t in years?
How do they plan to disrupt the financial services industry, both now and in the future?
Who are the people driving these changes?
Find the answers to all these questions in “The Fintech and Digital Banking Podcast by BCG Platinion.”
