Last week, one entrepreneur told me something funny. He said, “I built a grid trading bot, but the bot is doing its own comedy show.” I laughed, but he was serious. His bot was buying at the wrong time, selling at the wrong time, and the market was just playing games with him. At that moment, I understood one thing. A bot is like a small machine wi...

We often describe the financial services industry as being in the midst of a technological revolution, i.e. Open and Embedded Banking, AI, blockchain, stablecoins, CBDCs, you name it.

But what rarely gets mentioned is the hangover that follows. Valuation, in theory, measures promise. In practice, it often becomes pressure. Somewhere along th...

As CEO of one of the fastest-growing fintech lenders in the UK, I’ve helped founders grow through calm and chaos. Right now, growth feels harder than ever. Nearly one million UK SMEs fear closure following April’s rise in employer National Insurance, minimum wage, and capital gains tax. At the same time, the British Chambers of Commerce shows fewe...

Hiring used to be a sign of momentum. Now, it’s become a stress test. A few weeks ago, new data from the British Chambers of Commerce revealed that 13 percent of UK employers have already cut jobs, and another 19 percent are considering it, citing rising employer costs, especially National Insurance, as a key factor.
