In today's episode, Kailee Costello hosts David Brear, the CEO and co-founder of 11:FS and one of the hosts of the Fintech Insider podcast. In today's episode, David shares his insights on 3 topics: 1. How digital technologies and fintechs have unleashed innovation in commercial banking. We talk about the unmet needs of SMEs and why David expects to see a transition to more service-based models in the future. 2. The banking battlefield. The competitive landscape is shifting from being about the “number of customers you can acquire” to a landscape where digital is increasingly important. We discussed strategies that incumbent banks can take to stay competitive. 3. How fintech and financial ecosystems differ across different global markets. We spoke about the impact of generational and cultural differences, and why David expects there to be different winners in different regions.

Our expert hosts, David M. Brear and Jason Bates, get together to discuss the concept of fast following. Its something we here from people a lot, but is it always a bad thing? How can you get it right, what are the pitfalls to avoid getting it wrong, and what is the impact on the end customer? Much like our recent episode on how to put the services back into financial services, it's also something we often talk to our clients about, so we thought we'd open up that conversation to you, our listeners. We have something of a fireside chat to unpick what we mean by a fast follower and how, when and why it's an appropriate strategy - but also when it's not.

A staggering 75% of that investment went into fintech, proptech, and e-commerce. Nubank, LATAM's largest fintech, raised $1.15 billion in the region's biggest ever deal – then floated on the NYSE at a valuation of $40 billion. How did LATAM fintech get to this point?

Our expert host, Simon Taylor, is joined by some great guests to get under the skin of the debate into who is currently leading the fintech revolution. With the recent success stories of Chime, Current, Bond, Unit, Ramp, Brex, Persona, Alloy, Plaid, MX, and many many more – there's a velocity to the USA right now. However it has also been argued that the US are late to the party and Europe was having this glut of success 3-5 years ago and the US are just catching up. So with this in mind – we're asking who is currently ahead when it comes to fintech, the USA or Europe?

Welcome to this week's episode of The Mindset Mentor Meets Podcast which hears Angela interviewing David Brear, Group CEO at 11:FS. About our guest David is Group CEO of 11:FS and since his dream of being a sportsperson was crushed (along with the ligaments in his knee!), he has worked in pretty much every angle of the financial services industry, never losing the competitive desire to win. Having pitched, established and run billion-pound transformations for some of the biggest FS companies on the planet, the realisation that digital banking is only 1% finished has spurred the desire to establish an organisation that can actually make it happen. 11:FS is a challenger consultancy building out new propositions and ventures in the UK, US, Europe and Asia for some of the biggest brands on the planet. Alongside this, 11:FS build in-house products from competitor benchmarking tools like 11:FS Pulse, to core banking systems like 11:FS Foundry. Most recently, David has led the creation and market establishment of the challenger business bank Mettle for Natwest in the UK, proving that big banks can fight back against the fintech threat. He is also a host of the global business podcasts, Fintech Insider and Insurtech Insider. About this show David is in a class of his own and is the only person Angela has interviewed that says self-doubt doesn't feature in his world. David grew up around competitive sport and an injury meant he couldn't pursue his dream of being a sportsperson. His Dad advised him to look for an industry that would always be broken and this meant he found a role in Financial Services. He wasn't pleased with his 2.1 result in a computing degree and it was this that made him decide that he would work harder than anyone else around him. He works very hard at everything he does and this has brought him success. He has the ability to do this without trampling on other people. His biggest fear is creating opportunities that he doesn't fulfil and this means he doesn't feel he is in competition with anybody else. An uplifting and inspiring half hour.
