In this episode you will hear more on:

• How is utility playing a role in the financial space? For consumers or for employees?
• In a seemingly ever-expanding field of consumer finance apps – roboadvisors, neo-banks, savings enhancers, credit managers – how does a consumer (or an investor) decide which one(s) will win out?
• What are the most important UX and UI considerations when designing for financial services customers? What are some of the tradeoffs between additional security and usability?
• Regulations are a big part of any industry, but especially so within Financial Services. How do companies look at potential Mobile Solutions in such a heavily regulated industry?
• When should financial institutions build their own digital solutions vs. leverage partners solutions or acquiring a startup tech?
• What is the big disrupter in finance? What will be the thing to make the big shift in financial services?
