Lightning talk
Open banking, budgeting and securing the bag!
Automation, transfers and investing. The UK’s fintech industry attracted over $16bn investment in the first half of 2018. Fintech vows to be the solution for the banking industry’s recent complacency regarding customer centricity, money transparency and firm reputation.
This talk is all about utilising the latest technology to develop good personal finance habits, budgeting hacks and ways to invest your money. For instance, using standing orders to save money at the start of every month or open banking apps such as Yolt to manage your money across accounts and review your spending history against your budget.
