Big Data, Alt Payments Top Fintech Predictions

November 12, 2015 by JP Nicols

  Capital One has released a survey of 151 fintech and payments innovators which they conduced at Money 20/20 a couple of weeks ago. Given this non-random sample of participants, it is probably not surprising that Big Data Analytics and Alternative Payments Platforms were the top two answers (at 27% and 26%, respectively) to the question “Which technology innovation will […]

Bridging the Customer Experience Gap

The prevailing view of most financial industry leaders over the past decade has been that internal innovation was optional at best, and probably harmful to the way they’ve been used to doing things for so long.

Personalized Service in the Digital World

October 16, 2013 by JP Nicols

Since my Sept. 18 post in the Investment News techconnect blog, “Financial technology trends advisers can’t afford to ignore”, I have been in a number of conversations about how a new crop of web-based investment management/financial planning services are affecting the industry.

Scaling Financial Advice and Collaboration in a GPS World

July 17, 2013 by JP Nicols

We live in a real-time traffic, turn-by-turn directions, GPS world. Why do financial institutions still hand out the equivalent of gas station maps? I hear from many financial institutions that creating financial plans for their clients is an important goal, in fact some have goals to provide financial plans to all or a significant percentage […]
