This isn't a blog post about us. This is a blog post about a bank that created a podcast. Aside from that being so 2018 it hurts, a quick health warning. This isn't a dig, nor a brag. The podcast thing is a metaphor. How? Read on...

So the 11:FS values are live. It’s official now we’ve bought the swag :). What did you think of them? Make sense? Now let’s get into the details. This week, I’m going to outline how teamwork is crucial to our success. Value number one - Team: success is a team sport.

We’ve sifted through the data to find out what 11:FS Pulse users have been loving and where their focus has been for the last 12 months.

A popular topic among commentators and the media, incumbents have been slow to act on open banking. A recent Tink survey shed further light on the issues.

Each week, Leda Glyptis, CEO of 11:FS Foundry, creates #LedaWrites. This week why if you want something done in a bank you don’t need friends in high places. You need friends in low places.

Billions Spent But Where Is The Benefit? Whenever I start any presentation to banking folk, which I do pretty frequently these days, I start by talking about money.

Each week, Leda Glyptis, CEO of 11:FS Foundry, creates #LedaWrites. This week, she explains why patience is no longer a virtue big banks can reply upon.

Challengers going mainstream, infrastructure, wealth management for the masses and a bunch more in predictions for what 2020 holds for fintech and financial services.

Happy New Year fintech fans! Let’s kick things off in style.

It’s been a fantastic year for fintech and financial services, with so much happening across the world. Partnerships have sprung up between incumbents and fintechs with groundbreaking changes happening both on regulatory and commercial levels. Some we predicted, and some we didn’t. Here’s a quick recap of what we got right, and what we didn’t.

TL;DR: More closures are coming, Libra probably isn’t launching in 2020 (at least not in its current form) and blockchain’s next sleeper hit is already here.

Every Thursday, Leda Glyptis, 11:FS Chief of Staff creates #LedaWrites. This week she turns her attention to bankers behaving badly…and cookies.

It’s that time again – with a new year on the horizon, we’re doing something a little different for 2019 and reviewing our best and most popular podcast episodes.
