Episode 508: When Does a Fintech Become a Bank - a podcast by Brett King

In This Episode



When does a fintech become what they set out to disrupt? Is it when they start offering bank-like products? 



Get a banking license? Is it when they go all-in and buy an actual bank? 




In this episode sister pod, Breaking Banks Asia Pacific, asks whether this is good, bad, or something else for competition. The Asian Banker founder Emmanuel Daniel says fintechs struggle to maintain their innovative edge when they get sucked into the bid to become a bank, and Wise’s Surendra Chaplot believes you can be bank-like and still forge a path that is sensitive to customer needs.
