It’s Valentine’s Day. Obvious opening statement for a blog published on February 14th but on the off chance you forgot, you might want to bookmark this blog, run and buy a card. I’ll be here when you get back.

Big business is dying. But you already know that from my previous discussion with Jeff Tijssen last week. I digged a little deeper into the issue with him to find out how big businesses need to transform to stay alive.

Despite the global fintech boom, a lot of people in the Middle East remain unbanked, and there is plenty of work to do.

Every Thursday, Leda Glyptis, 11:FS Chief of Staff creates #LedaWrites. This week she’s thinking about how fintechs can survive doing business with big banks.

A couple of months ago our 11:FS CEO David Brear was invited to be a judge of Tech City UK’s Fintech for All competition. This was a nationwide competition in 2017 to find fintech startups that make financial services work for everyone. As well as some fantastic entrants and eventual winners, this event got us thinking about the wider implications of financial inclusion. Therefore we felt we really needed to do a podcast to delve into the issues raised and what this competition really highlighted, and how best the problems of financial inclusion and serving the underbanked can be solved in the UK.

Every Thursday, Leda Glyptis, 11:FS Chief of Staff creates #LedaWrites. This week she turns her attention to diversity in financial services.

If you create a service that can be put in an app or on a website then it should be an API.

Every Thursday, Leda Glyptis, 11:FS Chief of Staff creates #LedaWrites. This week she turns her attention to the romance of plumbing and core banking. No, really.

APIs are key to creating a digital ecosystem for customers. In an increasingly digital world, it’s time to bring seamless experiences to personal banking.
