Financial services must move beyond inertia to cultivate long-term loyalty
Loyalty is defined as “a strong feeling of support or allegiance”. However, in the context of financial services, it is more accurately defined as engineered persistence: a series of subconscious cues that steer customers toward familiar choices.
Phishing-proof by design: The future of banking authentication
For years, banks have relied on OTPs as a second factor for logins and sensitive actions. Sent via SMS, these short codes were designed to add security on top of a password. But they have become one of the weakest and most frustrating parts of the banking experience.
Designing for the human behind the business
The people using business banking tools don’t necessarily have financial backgrounds. Many smaller businesses can't afford a dedicated finance team. Yet banks keep building products that assume expertise their customers don't have, leaving them to figure things out on their own.
The rise of subscription banking and why it needs to fit into customers' lives
As our financial lives become more complex, there is a growing expectation for banks to offer more support, be more relevant, and generate greater everyday value. One of the clearest places this shift is starting to show up is in subscription banking.

Vertical Agentic AI is the next frontier for value creation In financial services
Most AI deployments so far have focused on AI that “talks”, which can search, summarise, and draft content to support employees. The next wave is different: AI agents that “do” are starting to take bounded actions inside workflows, moving cases forward and coordinating steps end-to-end, with humans kept in control where it matters.
Accessibility in finance: Designing a future everyone can use
Financial accessibility has long been framed as a matter of compliance or corporate social responsibility. But today, it’s emerging as something much bigger: a competitive advantage.
The fight to win the salary battle
As the industry adjusts to a new digital landscape, players across the spectrum are fighting to muscle their way into the financial epicentre and ‘win’ the salary battle to become the payday home of their customers.
Personalised payments: enabling the choice and flexibility consumers expect
Consumers are evolving, and so are their expectations and demands. As the purchasing power of the younger, digital-native Gen Z and Gen Alpha grows and older generations become more comfortable with the possibilities that AI and other new technologies enable, businesses have to work harder to keep them happy and retain their business.
Gamification in fintech: Financial literacy or just engagement?
Saving money and paying bills might not sound exciting - but today’s finance apps are borrowing tricks from video games to change that.
Why the future of fintech depends on empowering SMBs
While consumer-focused fintech has seen waves of innovation since the early 2000s, the small and medium-sized business (SMB) sector has remained comparatively underserved.
Agentic AI is reshaping financial services
Unlocking agentic AI’s upside demands rethinking how humans and systems share control, rebuilding data and API foundations, and scaling autonomy in measured steps with rigorous human-style QA
How digital payouts offer a competitive edge to insurers
In the highly competitive insurance sector, customer experience is a critical differentiator. While insurers focus on policy features and premiums, the claims payout process is often overlooked, creating a significant point of friction.
I’ve incentivised innovation, why isn't my team innovating?
At one of our Truly Digital After Dark events, Anne Boden said “if you call yourself digital, you’re not digital”.
