It’s easy to lose hope in times of darkness, and the past 12 months have without doubt given us our fair share of that feeling. Our truest challenge now is to remember, in the words of the poet Amanda Gorman: “There is always light. If only we’re brave enough to see it. If only we’re brave enough to be it.”
Fintech has always been brave. From artificial intelligence to biometric account authentication, the sector brought unlikely suspects together with the aim of connecting to create better impact. As our worlds increasingly merge and overlap, it continues to empower and bolster the millions who use it, delivering better financial outcomes and driving change. Creating freedom and sparking partnership, growth and competition. Being a force for good.
