Choose Your Own Fintech Adventure: A New Report from Bank Director Magazine Guides the Way for Banks4/28/2023
Buying new technology can be a real adventure for banks that want to keep up with the times, so the real question is how to avoid the pitfalls that can come when investing in fintech.
In the latest episode of the IPA Payments Pod, Kiah Haslett, the managing editor of Bank Director Magazine and Laura Alix, the magazine’s director of research, discuss their new report “Finding Fintechs” and how it can help banks choose their own adventure when it comes to buying Fintech. Their definition of “Fintech” is a little broader than the common parlance. They talk about the strategic and practical considerations for adding new technology, and why the short-term bottom line may not be the best investment criteria.
