Mick Fennell, Business Line Director, Payments, Temenos Payments by volume have soared, both in domestic markets and cross-border markets but, at the same time, banks margins have come under increasing pressure. Banks simply aren't making the money out of the payments business that they used to make out of it. How do we create a system of payments that is fair, equitable, secure, and that makes sense for banks as well as their customers? Robin Amlôt of IBS Intelligence caught up with Mick Fennell, Business Line Director, Payments at Temenos, at the company's Temenos Community Forum in Madrid.
Dans cette discussion avec les co-fondateurs de Kulipa et Ready (form. Argent) : Axel Cateland et Itamar Lesuisse, nous plongeons dans les coulisses d'un partenariat qui permet aujourd'hui d'utiliser ses cryptos au quotidien, via une carte connectée à un wallet "self-custody". Ready (anciennement Argent) simplifie radicalement l'accès à la crypto pour le grand public, en masquant toute la complexité technique. De son côté, Kullipa apporte l'infrastructure réglementaire et technique qui permet d'interfacer la blockchain avec les rails traditionnels du paiement.On parle de stablecoins comme nouvelle plateforme d'innovation, de la montée en puissance des néo-banques crypto-native, et de la vitesse avec laquelle ce modèle s'impose dans des zones comme l'Amérique latine ou l'Afrique - là où les infrastructures bancaires classiques montrent leurs limites. Itamar partage aussi sa vision d'une néo-banque construite sur les rails de la blockchain, qui pourrait surpasser en efficacité les systèmes actuels. Nous abordons les défis réglementaires en Europe, le rôle des régulateurs et les efforts d'éducation menés pour faire reconnaître des cas d'usage encore mal compris.***************************Finscale, c'est bien plus qu'un podcast.

Immer freitags analysieren wir in unserem „Wochen-Podcast“ aktuelle Entwicklungen in der deutschen Banken-, Fintech- und Payment-Branche. Diesmal haben sich Jochen Siegert und Christian Kirchner den folgenden Themen gewidmet: #1: Warum wird Orcel von der Börse gefeiert? Na, weil bei allen Risiken am Ende halt doch die Perspektive eines paneuropäischen Super-Bank winkt #2: In der Debatte um die Frühstart-Rente ist klar, was die Fintechs und was die Versicherer wollen – aber was wollen die Banken? #3: Einige Asset Manager lobbyieren an der Seite der Fintechs. Aber sind die Versicherer als Absatzkanal für ihre Produkte nicht lukrativer? #4: Die Depot-Offensive der Sparkassen kommt keine Sekunde zu Früh – denn im Kampf gegen Trade Republic bleibt nicht mehr viel Zeit #5: Leiden wirklich die Sparkassen und Volksbanken am stärksten unter den Neobrokern – sind das nicht eher die Direktbanken? #6: Das Chaos bei der Zustimmungspflicht – wann reicht das Schweigen des Kunden und wann reicht es nicht? #7: Dass manche Banker (und Banker!) bei der Zustimmung lieber konservativ vorgehen, hat nicht nur juristische Gründe == Fragen und Feedback zum Podcast: redaktion@finanz-szene.de oder (auch anonym) über Threema: TKUYV5Z6 Redaktion und Host: Christian Kirchner/Finanz-Szene.de Coverdesign: Elida Atelier, Hamburg Postproduction: Podstars Hamburg Musik: Liturgy of the street / Shane Ivers - www.silvermansound.com
Die Themen im heutigen Versicherungsfunk Update sind: Jeder fünfte Versicherungsvertrag wird online abgeschlossen Laut aktueller GDV-Auswertung wurden 2024 rund 22 % der Versicherungsverträge digital abgeschlossen – etwa über Websites, Vergleichsportale oder Apps. Besonders hoch ist der Digitalanteil bei Kfz-Versicherungen (29 %) sowie bei Krankenzusatz- und Auslandsreiseversicherungen (über 27 %). Trotzdem bleibt persönliche Beratung zentral: Rund 80 % der Verträge kommen weiterhin mit persönlicher Unterstützung zustande, insbesondere bei Lebens- und Krankenvollversicherungen. FinTechs fordern Tempo bei Altersvorsorge-Reform Mehr als 30 digitale Finanzunternehmen – darunter N26, Scalable Capital, BlackRock und growney – appellieren an die Politik, die private Altersvorsorge zügig zu reformieren. Gefordert wird eine Kombination aus Frühstart-Rente für Kinder und einem flexiblen Altersvorsorgedepot ohne Garantien. Ziel sei es, Kapitalmärkte besser für den Vermögensaufbau zu nutzen. Der gemeinsame Appell unterstreicht die Dringlichkeit und das Potenzial einer kapitalmarktbasierten Vorsorge in Deutschland. Datenmangel begünstigt Fehlentscheidungen 60 % der befragten Finanzentscheider in Deutschland haben 2024 mindestens eine geschäftliche Fehlentscheidung getroffen – meist ausgelöst durch externe Faktoren, falsche Markteinschätzungen oder unzureichende Datenlage. Das zeigt eine aktuelle Coface-Umfrage unter 204 CFOs. Zwar greifen 82 % inzwischen auf deutlich mehr Daten zurück als vor fünf Jahren, dennoch bleibt der Bedarf an zuverlässigen Wirtschaftsauskünften hoch. Besonders wichtig: Aktualität und Verlässlichkeit. Hypoport InsurTech holt Markus Niederreiner als CEO der Smart InsurTech AG Die Hypoport InsurTech AG verstärkt sich: Ab dem 15. September 2025 wird Markus Niederreiner neuer Vorstand der Hypoport InsurTech AG und übernimmt zugleich die Geschäftsführung der Smart InsurTech AG. Zuvor war Niederreiner CEO von Hiscox Deutschland. Mit der Personalie will Hypoport die nächste Wachstumsphase und die Weiterentwicklung des eigenen B2B-Marktplatzes einleiten. Cyberrisiken unterschätzt: KMU investieren kaum in Schutz Laut einer Studie von Coalition haben 83 % der kleinen Unternehmen in Deutschland in den letzten fünf Jahren einen Cyberangriff erlebt – dennoch widmet mehr als die Hälfte von ihnen der Cybersicherheit weniger als zehn Stunden pro Woche. Die Diskrepanz zwischen Risikobewusstsein und tatsächlicher Absicherung ist groß, warnt Coalition-Manager Martin Swider. Jeder zweite Haushalt besitzt über 100.000 EUR Vermögen Das Medianvermögen deutscher Haushalte lag 2023 bei 103.100 EUR – das zeigt eine neue Studie des Instituts der deutschen Wirtschaft (IW). Besonders hohe Vermögen finden sich bei 55- bis 64-Jährigen (Median: 241.100 EUR). Laut IW-Experte Maximilian Stockhausen sollte die Politik stärker auf Entlastungen beim Arbeitseinkommen setzen, um Vermögensbildung zu erleichtern.
Wenn Euch die Abkürzung BCM nichts sagt, dann habt Ihr ein Problem. Denn mit der DORA-Regulierung wird diese Abkürzung sehr, sehr wichtig. Wir erklären im Podcast, warum das so ist und wie Banken, Fintechs und Zahlungsdienstleister Business Continuity umsetzen müssen.

Im aktuellen BX Morningcalls begrüssen wir Beat Bühlmann, Präsident des Verwaltungsrates von finpension – einem spannenden Fintechs im Schweizer Vorsorgemarkt.

Im Gespräch mit François Bloch und Olivia Hähnel (BX Swiss) erklärt Beat Bühlmann, warum traditionelle Banken unter Druck geraten, wie man mit nur 1 Franken in Private Equity investieren kann – und weshalb Technologie, Transparenz und Unabhängigkeit die Säulen moderner Vorsorge sein müssen.

Interesting news coming out of China's Ant International, a global digital payments and fin tech provider. They have launched a new AI play with Alipay+ GenAI Cockpit. This will be an AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) platform. The strategy is to support fintech companies and nudge super apps to build AI driven financial services with the goal of better security, flexibility and seamless experiences. Making AI work for finance remains the key goal for fin tech companies. Alipay+ GenAI Cockpit is a platform to help entrepreneurs create effective AI-native financial services. These tools will combine automated workflows and task orchestration with a dynamic enterprise context. Key tasks include payment orchestration, customer onboarding, compliance checks, fraud detection, dispute resolution, and evaluation and performance optimisation. New AI Platform for Fintechs launched by Ant International Three-pronged AI strategy focuses on AI security, Vertical Fintech Expertise, and Full-stack AI platform support First fintech clients begin official integration in June 2025 in Southeast Asia and South Asia "The future of finance will be shaped by agentic AI that not only carry out tasks autonomously in real automated workflows and sophisticated financial business and compliance context with reliability, but also interact, evolve and learn rapidly in orchestration with ever-growing precision," said Jiangming Yang, Chief Innovation Officer of Ant International. Alipay+ GenAI Cockpit has been honed on Ant International's four key business units: wallet gateway service (Alipay+), merchant payment service (Antom), cross-border business account service (WorldFirst), and embedded finance service (global treasury management, digital lending and credit tech solutions). Upon successful completion of trial runs, the first external clients in Southeast Asia and South Asia will start officially deploying the Cockpit in June 2025. Three-Pronged AI Strategy: Security, Vertical Fintech Expertise, and Platform-level Support for Agentic FinAI Combining a fintech-specific toolbox and dynamic industry knowledge base alongside business-ready AI innovations, the Cockpit embodies three key directions of Ant International's AI strategy. Security Shield for Trusted AI AI scamming threats using deepfake and other technologies have been growing over 10 folds by the year, with grave implications especially in the financial sector. Statistics show 22% of businesses have encountered AI-generated payment fraud. Ant International invests heavily in AI security solutions to combat external AI scamming attacks and eliminate internal model security risks such as model hallucination or bias. Its AI SHIELD framework manages risks across system architecture designing, data processing, model training, and inferencing. It offers real-time dynamic risk assessment, including detecting adversarial prompts and sensitive data leakage through over 100 recognition models and 600,000 risk lexicons. Today, fraud loss rate in Ant International's merchant payment service is 5% of industry average. Deep Vertical Financial Expertise Alipay+ GenAI Cockpit leverages over 20 leading LLMs, including Ant International's own Falcon Time-Series Transformer FX Model. However, it has focused on integrating fintech knowledge bases, such as bank transfer rules and dispute resolution policies, to help businesses build specialized fintech agents. The Cockpit toolbox supports retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), post-training, evaluation, and benchmarking, taking the combination of general-purpose datasets with industry-specific benchmarks developed from Ant International's financial expertise to help improve model precision.

Ein Blick auf die Landkarte zeigt, warum die Sorge vor einem russischen Übergriff in Litauen zur neuen Normalität zählt: Im Süden ist das Land eingekeilt zwischen der russischen Exklave Kaliningrad und Putins Verbündetem Belarus. Die Menschen in Litauen diskutieren viel über einen Nato-Bündnisfall. Dabei wird klar: Deutschland ist für Litauen als Partner so wichtig wie nie zuvor.Dominic Otto ist stellvertretender Geschäftsführer der Deutsch-Baltischen Handelskammer und lebt seit rund zwei Jahrzehnten in der litauischen Hauptstadt Vilnius. Im Podcast "Wirtschaft Welt & Weit" erinnert er sich an den feierlichen Aufstellungsappell der Panzerbrigade 45, dem ersten Großverband in der Geschichte der Bundeswehr, der fest im Ausland stationiert ist. Als Ende Mai hunderte Bundeswehrsoldaten auf dem Kathedralenplatz in Vilnius in Position gingen, war auch er unter den Zuschauern.Die Reden von Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz und Litauens Präsidenten Gitanas Nausėda haben bleibenden Eindruck bei Otto hinterlassen: "Beide Seiten haben sich gegenseitiges Vertrauen und Unterstützung zugesichert", erinnert sich der Wirtschaftsexperte. Merz habe die Verteidigung Litauens mit der Verteidigung Berlins gleichgesetzt und damit unterstrichen, "dass Deutschland im Ernstfall bereit und auch willens ist, die Nato-Ostflanke hier in Litauen und auch im gesamten Baltikum zu verteidigen".Bis 2027 sollen 4800 Soldatinnen und Soldaten und weitere 200 zivile Kräfte in Litauen im Einsatz sein. Wenn auch deren Familienangehörige dauerhaft im Land leben, ist das "für litauische Verhältnisse eine mittelgroße Kleinstadt, die aus dem Boden gehoben werden muss", erklärt Otto. Sein Eindruck: Die litauische Bevölkerung freut sich auf die Deutschen. Gerade in Zeiten, in denen viele Menschen die Unterstützung der USA als wackelig wahrnehmen, "wird Deutschland eine stärkere Führungsrolle zugesprochen und auch abverlangt."Ganz gleich, ob er mit dem litauischen Wirtschaftsminister spricht oder mit Vertretern der Stadtverwaltung Vilnius: Für Dominic Otto hat die litauische Seite stets großes Interesse daran, wirtschaftliche, freundschaftliche und auch touristische Beziehungen zu stärken. Der Hintergedanke dabei: Mit zunehmender wirtschaftlicher Verflechtung zwischen beiden Ländern steige die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass Deutschland Litauen im Ernstfall verteidige.Litauen ist offen für Investitionen aus dem Ausland, Deutschland ist dabei längst ein "gern gesehener Partner". Neben dem Rüstungsbereich reicht das Spektrum von Maschinenbau über IT, Fintechs und Biotechnologie hin zum Ausbau der Energieinfrastruktur. Beim Thema Energie steht aktuell das Thema Nachhaltigkeit im Fokus. Denn was die Souveränität gegenüber Russland angeht, hat Litauen gerade erst einen wichtigen und lange angestrebten Schritt erfolgreich zurückgelegt: Seit Februar 2025 hängt das Land nicht mehr am russischen Stromnetz, sondern ist an das westeuropäische Kontinentalnetz angedockt.Schreiben Sie Ihre Fragen, Kritik und Anmerkungen gern an www@n-tv.de.

In this episode, Dharmesh sits down with Greta Ranonytė, Head of FinTech Hub LT, to explore what is driving Lithuania's rise as a leading FinTech destination. Greta outlines the country's key advantages, from seamless access to the EU market post-Brexit and progressive, FinTech friendly regulation, to a deep talent pool, especially in compliance and anti-money laundering. They delve into the evolving role of AI in FinTech, recognising its value in streamlining operations, though noting it remains a supporting tool rather than a central focus for most firms. Greta also compares Lithuania's competitive edge to other European FinTech hubs such as the Netherlands and Estonia. The conversation underscores Lithuania's strategic approach to attracting FinTechs through regulatory innovation and robust infrastructure, even as EU wide regulatory pressures mount. The episode closes with Greta's compelling pitch to international start-ups, particularly from the US and Asia, on why Lithuania offers a smart, scalable base for European expansion.

Fintechs have pushed the industry to focus on client experiences, and our show today digs into how traditional banks can collaborate with global banks like Citi to improve experiences like cross border payments for their clients. In our conversation today, Aashish Mishra, Citi's Global Head for Banks sales and North Asia head for Financial Institutions and Fintech Sales, Treasury & Trade Solutions (TTS), dives into how the bank's 24/7 US dollar clearing business, as well as solutions like Worldlink ® Payment Services, are helping the firm's bank clients deliver modern and intuitive experiences to its customers. Aashish Mishra is part of Citi's Services' business based in Hong Kong, and he performs two roles: he's responsible for TTS sales and strategy for all FI client segments in North America, which spans banks, fintechs, insurance, asset managers, and broker dealers. And for the bank segment globally, his focus is on delivering the entire TTS solution set to his clients, including cash clearing, global payments and receivables, Banking as a Service, liquidity solutions and trade solutions. Prior to this role, he spent extensive time in Citi's Security Services business, including as the Head of Custody Product and Head of Direct Custody and Clearing business for Asia. Aashish has extensive experience in the financial institution space, and has worked closely with senior clients, regulators, and financial market infrastructure during his career. Today, he brings that insight from multiple arms of the vast Citi footprint to the show to explore how banks can push their products further without burdening their teams with technical lift, as well as where he expects client expectations to go in the future.

There's a lot of attention being paid to how banks can simultaneously team up with fintechs and best serve SMBs and entrepreneurs on the product side. Trouble is, there hasn't been a whole lot of action. Allan Rayson, Founder and CEO of Finov8r, talks us through the opportunities within “adaptive fintech ecosystems.” The idea is to create modular, flexible solutions that allow banks to remain agile in the face of regulatory and operational challenges — and embed banks into the product development before they sell.
