Starling flies into banking-as-a-service space

No pun there....It appears to just be a Finextra typo! https://www.quora.com/Is-it-correct-to-write-time-flies-or-time-flys

Atom chief launches ferocious assault on 'dinosaur' banks

Good points Kevin, and I wholeheartedly agree about the issue on trust. As a middle-aged Marketeer, I still like the idea of a place I can go and deposit my savings....talk to some 'real' people, and negotiate on mortgage and fees.

But..I also love the usability of the disruptive taxi app called Uber, and am also addicted to my iPhone!

Can Anthony create the Uber of banking? Delivering what I want, when I want it, and at a cheaper price than the dinosaur competition, and maybe give me a complete financial overview of savings to loans to mortgae to investments?

I met with the founders of the German bank called Fidor...totally online and where the customers can 'vote' on the rate of interest they all receive! Some unheard of cool ideas and completely customer focused.

I don't know who will win out in the end, but I am sure Anthony only needs to convince a small percentage of likeminded Millenials to join his bank and he will be on to a winner.

I can't help thinking what will the 'Bank of the future' look like?

Twitter-based hedge fund launches

This is going to be an interesting story to follow!

At the macro level it may appear to be a good idea....and yet Twitter accounts are uncontrolled and unregulated....with funds and investments at stake, how will the technology stand up to the desire to influence the 'market'?

Methinks I'll be keeping my powder dry for the time being, but watching developments with interest.

We're all thumbs at Finextra

Dirk

A great idea....but it still seems a bit buggy? After logging in, the 'Thumbs Up' seems to no longer be there ??
