Why Bank Boards’ Brilliant Strategies Vanish Inside Their Digital Products

Picture a pristine strategy deck projected in the boardroom: bold growth curves, purpose-driven mantras, and a promise to “re-imagine banking for the digital age.” Now contrast that cinematic vision with the reality on your phone—an app that greets you with a spinning wheel, a five-step login, and a “try again later” toast. Somewhere between the m...

The huge-savings curse. Part II (e-invoicing)

Like in e- and mobile banking the e-invoicing as an interconnecting-customers service was not started off as a good-for-society at large program – but for customer convenience.

Insurance is shifting from a purely B2C model to integrated, accessible protection. Instead of standalone coverage, insurers need to provide solutions that fit naturally into everyday transactions and customer journeys.
