£1m London tech startup competition ditched

I can re-start it for London. It just needs a proper process and the right sponsors.  

With a good business case, plan, marketing campaign, and partners, it can bring tens of millions in investment.

A 600 billion financial StartUp

Search for "CitiFi" - Internet only banking from Citi - some 20 years ago.  It was absorbed by Citibank proper eventually.

In my opinion, a financial services world without SWIFT would be like the internet without ICANN, or a country without a Central Bank.

SWIFT is essential to the financial services world, albeit it could try harder to innovate.
