Ep. 143. News: O Canada!

In a special news show this week, Sam Maule hosts all the way from Toronto, Canada, where the team have been covering the Sibos conference.

The guys have another chance to discuss open banking and APIs, hot topics at Sibos this year; why value generation is seen as one of the biggest challenges posed; and how partnerships with fintech firms will help banks to find those important new sources of revenue.

Sam also covers the complicated relationship between Swift, the Sibos organisers, and Blockchain at the same time that Ripple was hosting Swell, a competing event right across town.

Sticking with the Blockchain theme, we talk about Bank of Canada’s Sibos announcement that they’re looking into applying Blockchain technology to the securities market.

And in keeping with our location, we cover the launch of Marqeta, a payment processing platform, in Canada next month, and discuss why their Just-in-Time, or JIT, technology is a big draw for firms.

Please note, we do not produce Fintech Insider, we merely are fans and repost it!
