816. Insights: The current state of open banking
Our expert hosts, 11:FS CEO David M. Brear is joined by some great guests to talk about the current state of open banking, how it is transforming financial services and, as more countries push for formal open banking regimes, what does the future hold?
This week's guests include:
- Kiaan Pillay, CEO & Co-Founder at Stitch
- Andrew Escobar, former Director of Open Finance at MX in Canada
About this episode
Open banking allows financial institutions to share data and have a more globalised, connected banking system. It enables customers to share personal financial information securely, which can broaden the products and services available to them.
For example, personal finance apps help individuals to manage their finances, track spending habits, save and access other financial services, all from one place.
Lenders can better evaluate the borrowing power of applicants if they can access their credit history from other FS providers too.
And have you ever sent a payment to someone without needing to manually input your bank details?
All of this is possible with open banking.
So in today’s podcast we are going to take a look at the countries with an established open banking framework, those in the process of creating the regulation for it, and those who are slipping behind, and really understand the current state of open banking around the world today.

818. Insights: How to build trust in financial services
Our expert host, Ross Gallagher, are joined by some great guests to talk about how to build and keep trust in financial services.
The 2008 financial crisis was a pretty pivotal time, to say the least. Suddenly, big banks could fail and our money just didn’t feel as safe as it once did. Trust in the whole system suffered a hit which many thought was irreparable.
However, the industry has since gone through a transformative period - improved regulation, more effective governance, and a huge exercise rebuilding that trust with the customer.
In a world that now looks so very different from 2008, we want to tackle the tricky matter of trust head on. How do financial services build trust? How do they keep it? And what makes one FS provider more trustworthy than another?
This week's guests include:
- Jordan Sinclair, President at Robinhood UK
- Monica Hovsepian, Head of Financial Services Industry at OpenText
- Aidan Rushby, CEO at Carmoola
