Rebundling
FinTechs Go Multiline in Act II
The early FinTech mantra was: “We’re focused providers, we do one thing well, better than incumbents who are generalists” In Act II, they’re maturing… adding products, going multiline
Discussion Topics
- What is driving rebundling?
- What is the decision tree to determine which services should be rebundled?
- What lessons can be learned from other industries?
- How will this change Fintech vs. Incumbent competition?
Inclusion
No Customer Left Behind
With 2 billion unbanked + 1.4 billion having limited access to investing/insurance, we can’t claim that finance is working for everyone, including SMEs. Fortunately, smart FinTechs are hard at work to fix this issue
Discussion Topics
- Is Financial Inclusion merely a “feel good” issue, or “a commercially viable” strategy?
- What are the structural challenges?
- How is emerging technology enabling inclusion/wellness?
- What innovative partnerships and strategies can FinTechs employ?
Shared Equity
New Funding/Investing Paradigm

Discussion Topics
- Fractional ownership is nothing new; So what’s different this time?
- What are the different strategies being employed by FinTechs?
- What risks do retail investors face?
- What are some of the regulatory issues for issuers and investors?
