Our main take aways? The future is collaborative and "specific"...
To thrive in nowadays FS industry, FS need to listen to the customers, put the customer at the centre of their business plan and priorities: transparency, speed, user-friendliness, safety, data protection, climate change, ...
Their needs are more and more specific, mixed with the ever-increasing load of regulations, this leads to more and more niche products and innovative solutions. Traditional players need Fintechs for more agility, and fintechs need traditional players for many obvious reasons... Collaboration will be crucial and central in tomorrow's FS industry.
A big thank you to Kjeld Herreman, Martin Haegheman and Ann Vanlommel for welcoming us and giving us the opportunity to connect, inspire and hopefully create further collaborations in our ecosystem.
