On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, in partnership with Alloy, host David M. Brear is joined by some great guests live at Money2020 Europe in Amsterdam to discuss embedded finance and compliance.

We’re talking about the growth of embedded finance use cases, the huge opportunity space it provides, but also the critical importance of getting it right on the compliance and data security side so you don’t fall foul of regulation.

Recently, we’ve seen more and more headlines of companies who haven’t gotten this right, so today we want to give a masterclass on what to avoid and how to get this right for the license holders and the licensees of banking services.

This week's guests:


Laura Spiekerman, President and Co-founder at Alloy

Charles McManus, CEO ClearBank

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)

In season two of Fintech Insider Focus, in collaboration with Visa, our expert hosts. continue to shine a light on fintech in different parts of the world. In this episode we are continuing our deep dive into the European payments space.

11:FS host David Barton-Grimley, alongside Lynsey Verrillo, Visa Europe's Head of Enabler & Small Business Growth, is taking a look at Cross Border payments in Southern Europe.

This is a growing area of innovation but it’s still ripe for disruption and improvement, particularly for businesses, for whom cross border payments are still quite complex and often costly. Couple that with Southern Europe, which is still an up and coming region in terms of fintech adoption and innovation, and we have a recipe for a perfect opportunity space.

Enrico Causero, General Manager cloud Microbusiness & Digital Finance Solutions at TeamSystem

Harry Xenophontos, Chief Partnerships Officer at Viva.com
