Philip Bruno argues that banking needs to catch up to fintech companies, possibly through mergers and acquisitions. He expects increasing consolidation and divestitures in 2026, though more among the regionals and smaller players than the giants. He thinks wealth management and new geographies will be a focus for deals. He discusses how stablecoins and AI could disrupt the industry next year.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

He reflects on the challenges of leading a small credit union, the difficult but member-focused decision to merge, and how West Community Credit Union has embedded “people helping people” into its culture through hands-on community involvement.The conversation explores why traditional marketing tactics often fall flat and how audio storytelling and podcasting can help credit unions emotionally connect with members and communities. Josh breaks down West Community's Banking On You Podcast, a narrative-driven audio series that highlights real community impact rather than products or promotions.Mark and Josh also discuss small credit union survival strategies, the realities of fintech partnerships, and why community engagement must go beyond check-writing and photo ops. This episode is a must-listen for credit union leaders, marketers, and executives looking to strengthen community trust, modernize outreach, and tell their story more effectively.What You Will Learn in This Episode: ✅ How credit unions can use storytelling and podcasting to build trust, emotional connection, and brand relevance beyond traditional financial marketing.✅ What small credit union leaders must consider when facing sustainability challenges, including when a merger may be the most member-focused decision.✅ Why authentic, hands-on community engagement matters more than surface-level philanthropy and how it strengthens long-term relationships.✅ How fintech innovation can coexist with mission-driven values, allowing credit unions to modernize without losing their “people helping people” identity.Subscribe to Credit Union Conversations for the latest credit union trends and insights on loan volume and business lending!

Unlike ads or social posts, podcasts allow credit unions to slow down, go deeper, and engage listeners in meaningful conversations.

At Snowpal, we've spent years building and running production-grade software products across multiple domains.

José Antonio Esteban, CEO de IronIA Fintech, repasa los productos de la compañía y cuáles han sido los mejores en este 2025. “La cartera modelo es una funcionalidad que nuestros clientes están utilizando mucho”, afirma el invitado. Añade también que al usuario le permite “tener una visión de tu cartera actual, sino todos los cambios que ha hecho a lo largo del tiempo, le permite tener esa rentabilidad y esas métricas sin ningún tipo de limitación”. También analiza las particularidades de uno de los productos estrella de la compañía: las carteras modelo. “Tú puedes crear una cartera modelo con los fondos que tú quieras”, afirma el invitado. Destaca también que “esa cartera va a tener un comportamiento como si fuera una cartera real, va a tener una valoración, va a tener un riesgo…” ¿Qué otras características tiene esta cartera modelo? El CEO de IronIA Fintech explica que permite “hacer una aportación periódica a esa cartera modelo, de forma que cada 15 días pongas 100 euros, para que después esa cartera reparta esos porcentajes de manera automática”. ¿Qué se fomenta con este tipo de cartera? José Antonio Esteban añade que lo que se fomenta es “el ahorro periódico y te permite hacer un seguimiento de esas ideas que has tenido y no sabes donde ponerlas, para eso también te vale”. ¿Qué influencia tienen los productos de IronIA Fintech en los clientes? “Nosotros incentivamos que nuestros clientes sean curiosos, que se formen, porque creemos que la única manera de que no te engañen es que no tengas conocimiento”, afirma el invitado. También añade que ellos “incentivan a que sus clientes pasen de saber poco a que vayan sabiendo utilizar estas herramientas poco a poco y vayan conociendo la empresa mucho más”. Para 2026, el entrevistado señala que “siguen con su idea de sacar las ETFs”.

ModernMillions.ai is more than a book—it's a behind-the-scenes blueprint for how real entrepreneurs are using artificial intelligence to win today. In this special episode, R. Kenner French pulls back the curtain on the years-long journey of writing his latest book and explains why AI is no longer optional for business owners who want to stay competitive. The book was built from lived experience, not theory, shaped by working hands-on with over 2,000 entrepreneurs across real estate, law, medicine, and service-based businesses through VastSolutionsGroup.com.At its core, ModernMillions.ai answers three questions every entrepreneur is asking right now: How do you make more money, how do you keep more of it, and how do you protect what you've built—using AI? Kenner explains how artificial intelligence can help businesses grow from six figures to multiple six or seven figures by improving decision-making, operational efficiency, marketing, and strategy. This isn't hype—it's practical, real-world AI deployment designed for business owners who want results.The book also dives deeply into saving millions through smarter tax strategies powered by AI. Instead of spending years learning complex tax law, entrepreneurs can now leverage artificial intelligence to identify deductions, optimize structures, and reduce tax liability faster and more efficiently than ever before. Kenner emphasizes that AI doesn't replace professionals—but it empowers entrepreneurs to ask better questions, move faster, and make smarter financial decisions.Beyond growth and tax savings, ModernMillions.ai tackles a topic many business owners overlook until it's too late: asset protection and estate planning. Kenner explains how AI can assist in drafting strategies, organizing structures, and building a protective “moat” around wealth—helping entrepreneurs safeguard what they've worked so hard to create. From asset protection frameworks to estate planning efficiency, AI becomes a force multiplier for long-term security.What truly sets this book apart is that it's designed as a living, evolving resource. Paired with the continuously updated ModernMillions.ai website, readers gain ongoing access to new AI tools, strategies, and resources as technology rapidly evolves. Kenner invites honest feedback, reviews, and even critiques—because the book is meant to grow alongside the AI landscape. For entrepreneurs, aspiring business owners, and even W-2 professionals considering a leap, ModernMillions.ai offers a clear message: use artificial intelligence to build, protect, and scale—or risk being left behind.Takeaways• The book Modern Millions.ai is aimed at entrepreneurs looking to leverage AI.• AI can help businesses increase revenue and save on taxes.• Continuous updates to the book and website will provide ongoing resources.• Kenner emphasizes the importance of honest feedback on the book.• AI can assist in asset protection strategies.• The book is a culmination of years of effort and learning.• Kenner encourages readers to share the book with others.• AI is not just a trend; it's essential for modern business.• The writing process involved both AI and personal creativity.• Kenner has credibility as a FinTech writer and author.Sound Bites• I want some honest feedback.• It's been a labor of love.• My flavor is put into the book.Listen & Subscribe for More:

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ sits down with Jayesh Kumar, Co-Founder at Aonami. Discover how legacy systems are being disrupted, the challenges of digital transformation, and why true innovation means building solutions that give time back to people. Four Key Takeaways: The Problem with Legacy Systems [6:10]Banks and healthcare institutions are bogged down by dozens of outdated, patchwork systems, making innovation slow and compliance difficult. Meeting Clients Where They Are [14:54]True disruption comes from understanding a client’s current state and building solutions that fit their unique needs, rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach. The Human Side of B2B Sales [20:03]Selling transformative technology to large organizations is about building relationships and convincing multiple teams, not just one decision-maker. The Real Goal of Technology [28:47]The ultimate aim of innovation should be to give people time back, making work more productive, creative, and compassionate. Quote of the Show (34:23):"True disruption really happens not by doing a lot of work, but by doing less in a much smarter way. You should be building systems that start giving time back to people." – Jayesh Kumar Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Sangha Penesetti, founder and CEO of goZeal, who didn't just break the glass ceiling—she installed a flexible skylight. Today we'll dive into the economics of equity, why flexible work is not a perk but a performance driver, and how insurers can win by rethinking who gets a seat at the table—and how that table is set. KEY TAKEAWAYS In my early career, every client meeting I walked into was a room full of men. I was the only woman of colour. When I became a mother in 2010 I felt first-hang how unforgiving the industry was, there was no real flexibility, no empathy around new mums (though that may have just been the company I worked for then), and certainly no system that was designed for working mums. During Covid I found my own community: Brilliant, highly educated women, especially Indian and Asian mums, step out of the workforce to raise kids and never return. Not because they lacked ambition, but because the system simply wasn't build for them. That's the moment I realised it wasn't an individual struggle but a systemic design flaw, that's when goZeal was born. We talk about empowerment a lot, but what is empowerment? It‘s the financial empowerment, the capacity for women to have the money to spend on whatever they want be that a Gucci bag or feeding their kids. The data is clear: When women (and especially women of colour) advance, companies become more innovative and perform better financially.  BEST MOMENTS  ‘My experience taught me that being included isn't the same as being empowered.'  ‘Radical inclusion flips the dynamic. It's not about representation, it's about access to meaningful work decision-making authority and economic mobility.' ‘Remote work is not “flexibility.” Flexibility means flexibility of time. I wanted to hire women directly to give them the autonomy of time. Direct impact comes when you are the employer.' ‘True flexibility allows for peak productivity not proximity. When people work at their best insurers benefit from higher quality work, lower burnout, less attrition, stronger retention, all of that good stuff.' ABOUT THE GUEST Sangha Penesetti is the powerhouse founder and CEO of goZeal, a company rewriting the rules of work by directly hiring skilled women, especially women of colour, for high-impact, flexible roles in insurance and tech. With 18 years of experience in finance and insurance, she's lived the challenges of being the only woman at the table—and decided to build her own. Under her leadership, goZeal is more than a talent platform—it's a movement. One that's tackling systemic inequity, modernizing legacy operations, and showing insurers that flexible work is not a perk but a strategic edge. She's here to talk about the real economics of inclusion, why hybrid isn't enough, and how insurers can close talent gaps while building a future-ready workforce. ABOUT THE HOST Sabine is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur. She is the CEO and Managing Partner of Alchemy Crew a venture lab that accelerates the curation, validation, & commercialization of new tech business models. Sabine is renowned within the insurance sector for building some of the most renowned tech startup accelerators around the world working with over 30 corporate insurers, accelerated over 100 startup ventures.

José Antonio Esteban, Ceo de IronIA Fintech, viene a los micrófonos de Radio Intereconomía para hacer el balance del año, los nuevos productos y funcionalidades que tiene la empresa de cara a 2026, cual ha sido el servicio que mayor impacto ha tenido en los usuarios y cuál va a ser la evolución de los clientes el año que viene. “Hemos superado los cuatrocientos millones de euros en cantidad gestionada para nuestros clientes”, afirma el invitado. También apunta que “han superado los cuatro mil usuarios de pago”. ¿Cuál ha sido el crecimiento de la empresa? El entrevistado explica que “aunque no han llegado a los diez mil usuarios, el crecimiento ha sido mejor de lo esperado”. ¿Cuál es el tipo de perfil de usuario que se acerca a la empresa? “Este año hemos cambiado nuestros porcentajes en los tipos de usuario”, afirma el CEO de IronIA Fintech. Asegura que hasta este año “habían tenido muchos “frikis financieros”, que hasta ahora les habían convencido los servicios de la compañía, pero ahora han virado a otro tipo de perfil”. ¿Cuáles son las características de este nuevo usuario de la empresa? El entrevistado explica que “este nuevo tipo de perfil está menos habituado a utilizar plataformas, pero ha conseguido no tener tantas barreras a la hora de utilizar este tipo de servicios”. ¿Qué productos ha sacado la empresa para la gente más profesional que usa sus servicios? “Nosotros intentamos que para la persona que tiene mucho conocimiento sea sencilla pero que para la persona que no tiene este conocimiento sea sencilla también”, asegura José Antonio Esteban. También apunta que “es muy difícil” y que por eso “no aciertan muchas veces a la primera y en el desarrollo, vemos como es el comportamiento y los clientes nos dicen cómo quieren que se comporten estas aplicaciones”.

Season's Greetings Glocal Citizens! I met this week's guest, Derrick N. Ashong, earlier this year in Nairobi at the Charter Cities Institute, 2025 New Cities Summit (https://youtu.be/d9XUzdxKmzo?si=FbITjI8Git8kEb9Q). At the summit, we connected as storytellers that share Ghanaian heritage and formative years spent in Brooklyn, New York. In a glocal citizenship twist, we later came to find that we met virtually years prior through mutual connections in the media and arts spaces. Derrick's work leverages his international upbringing which informs his company's vision for Turning Culture into Currency for creators and fans worldwide. He does this as founder and CEO of TBTM, a media fintech that uses content to onboard global audiences to inclusive financial solutions, with partners like Mastercard. While still a student at Harvard, he played a supporting role in Steven Spielberg's Amistad, and went on to top charts with his band, winning a Billboard Songwriting Award. As a host and producer, he pioneered multi-platform interactive content with Oprah Winfrey, and major media platforms including ABC-Disney and Univision, earning three Emmy nods and a Royal Television Society Award. His original Take Back the Mic television series has won seven major international awards and achieved 1.1 Billion media impressions worldwide. He has delivered electrifying speeches on issues of Youth Culture and Tech for UK Parliament, the United Nations, and the world's most elite business schools, including Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Wharton, Cambridge and London School of Economics. He has interviewed celebrities and global luminaries ranging from Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Kofi Annan, to Zoe Saldaña, Kevin Hart and Steven Wozniak, among others. Most recently, he has delivered keynote speeches for Mastercard, Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and Kigali, as well as SuperReturn Africa--the continent's top investment forum. In this conversation we get to know even more about the next phase of Derrick's vision for flipping the script on creative industry infrastructure in Africa. #Listenandlearn more!

Welcome to the Tearsheet Podcast, where we explore financial services together with an eye on technology, innovation, emerging models, and changing expectations. I'm Tearsheet's editor in chief, Zack Miller. For fintechs, cracking the credit union market is notoriously difficult. It's relationship-based, insular, and requires a fundamentally different approach than banking. Many try and fail. But when done right, it opens up distribution to institutions serving over 140 million Americans. Today I'm joined by Brian Kaas, president and managing director of TruStage Ventures, the corporate VC arm of TruStage—a $5.5 billion annual revenue insurer that works with 92% of credit unions nationwide. Since 2016, TruStage Ventures has deployed $400 million across 50 portfolio companies and facilitated over 3,000 partnerships between credit unions and fintechs. We first spoke with Brian in 2021 when the fund was just gaining traction. Four years later, the portfolio has matured with companies like Ethos, Current, and SmartAsset, and Brian's team has become essential connective tissue between innovative fintechs and credit union distribution. We'll dig into what makes credit union partnerships different, why so many fintechs struggle to break in, and why stablecoin solutions have become the number one request Brian's hearing from credit union CEOs.

2025 was a rollercoaster year for community banks navigating the talent market. Early optimism gave way to hesitation as uncertainty, M&A activity, and competitive pressure reshaped hiring decisions across the industry. As the year came to a close, momentum began to return.In this year-end conversation, Travillian reflects on what the past year revealed about community bank talent strategy and why optimism is building for 2026. The discussion explores how leadership roles are evolving, why competition for experienced banking talent has intensified, and how storytelling has become a critical differentiator in executive search.As community banks compete with larger institutions, fintechs, and sponsor banks for top talent, the ability to clearly articulate culture, leadership vision, and growth opportunity is no longer optional. Banks that control their narrative are better positioned to attract and retain strong leaders as hiring accelerates.This conversation covers:• The banking talent market in 2025 and why hiring felt volatile• How M&A activity is reshaping the available talent pool• Why storytelling matters in community bank executive search• Shifting expectations for CEO, CFO, and risk leadership roles• What community banks need to do now to win talent in 2026If you're thinking about leadership hiring, succession planning, or talent strategy for your community bank, this conversation offers practical perspective on what's changing and what's ahead.

Fintech went from a full-blown surge to a near standstill in just two years. At its peak, about 25 percent of all venture dollars were pouring into the category. By late 2022, that number had collapsed to almost zero. In this conversation, a16z General Partner David Haber and Plaid cofounder and CEO Zach Perret unpack what actually happened during that cycle and why the market is heating up again.We explore how the industry moved from the explosive growth of 2020 and 2021 into a deep freeze, and why we are now seeing real momentum return. We also dig into the forces reshaping fintech today: AI's outsized impact on fraud and underwriting, incumbents finally embracing external software, the renewed importance of deposits, and the rise of embedded finance across entirely new categories.Zach shares how Plaid has navigated these shifts, what the company is building now, and how he sees the next phase of fintech taking shape. Resources:Find Zach on X: https://x.com/zachperretFind David on X: https://x.com/dhaber Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

The fintech landscape continues to evolve, shaped less by experimentation and more by intelligent execution. From AI-powered decisioning to next-generation payment platforms, financial technology leaders are moving beyond innovation for innovation's sake and toward scalable, revenue-driving systems. At Money2020, one theme stood out clearly: fintech organizations that integrate AI, automation, and data-driven insights into their sales and growth strategies are building trust faster, shortening sales cycles, and delivering measurable value in increasingly complex markets.At INSPIRED Vibe, we view the convergence of AI and fintech as a strategic inflection point—not a distant future. Early adopters are already gaining a competitive advantage through personalized engagement, adaptive go-to-market strategies, and infrastructure built to scale. Organizations that act now will be better positioned to compete, comply, and grow with confidence as the fintech ecosystem continues to evolve.Join us in this second podcast episode as we share key insights gathered from our participation at this year's Money2020 conference.Follow INSPIRED VibeFacebook & LinkedIn: @inspirethevibeTikTok: @inspirethevibeInstagram: @inspirethevibeINSPIRED Vibe's Website: https://inspiredvibe.com/

They're the front door to a decentralized internet.In this episode, Phantom CEO Brandon Millman joins a16z crypto Investment Partner Jay Drain and host Robert Hackett to unpack how crypto wallets are evolving into full-blown consumer finance platforms — and why they may be the most credible candidates to become the internet's next super apps.We explore Phantom's journey from a Solana-first wallet to a multi-chain platform, why wallets are uniquely positioned to win trust around money, and how features like onchain trading, perps, social feeds, prediction markets, and payments are reshaping what people expect from a consumer finance app.The conversation also dives into:Why starting with finance may be a better path to a super app than starting with socialHow Phantom thinks about UX, trust, and security in cryptoThe rise of perpetual futures (perps) and prediction marketsWhat the FTX collapse meant for Solana — and the counterintuitive silver liningWhether AI agents could one day replace apps and browsersIf you're curious about where crypto, fintech, and consumer apps are headed next — and why wallets may become the most important interface on the internet — this episode is for you.Highlights01:32 – The evolution and role of crypto wallets2:42 – Wallets vs. browsers: the right mental model12:03 – Phantom's origin story and the Solana bet19:05 – Perps, trading, and product-market fit26:08 – UX, trust, and consumer finance30:52 – Social feeds, discovery, and network effects35:21 – Crypto as "black hole" absorbing finance37:09 – AI agents and the future of walletsFollow a16z crypto on...XLinkedInSpotifyApple PodcastsYoutube

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Marinela Profi, Global Market Strategy Lead for AI, GenAI and Agentic AI at SAS, about the rise of agentic AI and how we will move from hype to real, reliable AI. In today's episode, we'll discuss: Why LLMs alone don't solve business problems – and what does, how governance is becoming the new frontier of AI trust, and what leaders should expect by 2026, as enterprises shift from experiments to autonomous, explainable intelligence. KEY TAKEAWAYS A generative AI chatbot is really good and answering questions, generating text, or summarising content. But, it typically stops when it comes to conversation. On the other hand, an AI agent goes beyond that, it can take action, it has goals, memory, reasoning capabilities and can orchestrate multi-set workflows using a combination of not just large-language models but also rules, data and analytics. Generative AI talks, and agentic AI does. The 5-step lifecycle of an agent is a framework I put together to help me and my customers understand what an agent actually does step-by-step in practice. 1. Perception 2. Cognition 3. Decisioning 4. Action, and 5. Learning. Governance boards in 2026 will act more like digital oversight committees, they will ensure that agents aren't just smart, but they are safe, explainable and accountable.  BEST MOMENTS  ‘Post action the agent learns from feedback from a human operative. It's important to monitor the learning loops, you cannot allow the agent to “self-update” in ways that are uncontrolled.'  ‘How autonomous should an agent be? 90% of the time it depends on the risk and impact of the task.' ‘Autonomy without accountability is a risk multiplier.' ‘Governance doesn't stop at deployment, performance must be continuously monitored.' ABOUT THE GUEST Marinela Profi helps organizations move from AI hype to trusted impact. As Global Market Strategy Lead for AI, GenAI and Agentic AI at SAS, she works with enterprises in financial services, healthcare, and government to build AI systems that don't just act fast—but act responsibly. With an MBA and a Master's in Statistics and AI, Marinela bridges two worlds: translating complex data science into clear business strategy. Her work focuses on how agentic AI—intelligent systems that perceive, reason, and act autonomously—can deliver governed, explainable decisions instead of black-box predictions. A frequent keynote speaker at international AI and analytics events, she shares insights on the evolution from generative to agentic AI and the new frontier of AI governance, trust, and human-AI collaboration. Marinela is also an Advisory Board Member for Wake Technical Community College's Data Science Program, helping shape future-ready curricula that connect classroom learning with real-world AI innovation. ABOUT THE HOST Sabine is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur.

Financial institutions are rethinking loyalty at a critical moment. Credit card spending sits at record highs, but economic uncertainty looms. For banks aiming to stay relevant, loyalty can no longer be an afterthought – it needs to be embedded into every customer experience from the start. At FIS's Emerald 2025 conference in Orlando, Mladen Vladic, general manager of loyalty services at FIS, sat down to discuss how the loyalty industry is evolving beyond traditional card-based rewards. His central argument: Financial institutions need to shift from chasing share of wallet to capturing share of mind first.

Growth shouldn't stall at the border. We sit down with Peter Dougherty, President of Spreedly, to unpack how an open payments platform helps global brands launch faster, reduce vendor risk, and optimize authorization rates without ripping out their stack. Peter traces the evolution from card‑centric orchestration to a broader layer that now includes tokenization, a secure token vault, fraud and KYC options, and connections to multiple processors and alternative payment methods. The takeaway: best‑of‑breed no longer means complexity and long timelines - it means resilience, data‑driven choices, and faster expansion.Peter also looks ahead to a future where agents become the front end of commerce. Discovery, selection, and purchase compress into milliseconds, and payments infrastructure has to keep up. We dig into how mandates, consent, and spending limits will work when agents transact on our behalf; how liability flows when something goes wrong; and why token management becomes the backbone for secure, delegated payments. He shares why platforms that can safely feed agents with PCI‑sensitive data will win as volumes surge across regions and rails.We ground the hype in reality too. Payments is the fastest moving oil tanker - innovation is constant, but adoption takes time. EMV took decades; stablecoins still trail cards and the fastest‑growing APMs. For leaders, the smart move is to build behind an abstraction layer that lets you A/B test processors, adopt new methods, and swap tools without disruption. If you're pushing into new markets or preparing for agentic commerce, this conversation will help you rethink checkout, time to market, and resilience at scale.

Commercial banks are confronting a rapidly shifting landscape as private credit markets grow toward $3.5 trillion and fintech competitors accelerate their offerings with AI-powered tools. Rather than retreating, traditional institutions are doubling down on technology investments and reimagining their commercial lending strategies to compete in this new environment. "Banks are not short-term thinkers," says Héctor Pagés, SVP and Head of Global Commercial Lending at FIS. "We're not seeing a slowdown in terms of interest or investment from our institutions, in terms of advancing and changing the ways that they're working." The response from banks has been multifaceted, according to Pagés. Some retail-focused institutions are shifting resources toward commercial lending, while smaller commercial banks are expanding into more complex lending products. Others are adopting an "originate to distribute" model, partnering with private credit firms to spread risk while generating fee income. This strategic evolution is happening against a backdrop of regulatory uncertainty, tariff fluctuations, and the continued expansion of non-bank lenders into territory traditionally dominated by banks. Listen to the podcast to learn about how banks are transforming their commercial lending operations through unified technology platforms, the role of AI in automating credit decisions and underwriting processes, and why cloud infrastructure is becoming essential for global scalability.
