It’s not been uncommon for fintech startups and other disruptors to take a totally disruptive attitude toward financial institutions and the established financial system. But these digital entities supposedly poised to gobble up bank customers are finally seeing the mutual benefit of collaboration.

Technologies that can lower costs and increase competition by making business connections more direct, and satisfy consumers’ increasing appetite for newer banking platforms, will continue to strengthen their hold. At the same time, the financial instituions’ deep and specialized experience in global markets and security are needed by these newer players. A working relationship from both sides of the fintech-FI aisle will open up vast opportunity.
It’s an opportunity that’s unstoppable. According to CB Insight, investment dollars in fintech will double by 2018 (from 2013 rates), with last year’s global total investment totaling more than $12 billion.
That’s a lot of incentive to work together. Join us for this not-to-be-missed webinar that will spell out the forces at work that brought us to this point, and the massive opportunities for both digital startups and traditional financial institutions going forward.
