Show notes
In this episode of Money Majlis, I sit down with Chris Skinner, renowned futurist and author, to explore the future of banking and finance. Skinner, known for his influential insights on fintech and digital transformation, shares his views on how technology is reshaping the financial landscape.
We discuss his latest book, “Intelligent Money” and how banking is poised for a “reversal of roles” where money thinks for us. Skinner delves into the rapid growth of fintechs and their potential to acquire traditional banks, as well as the emergence of a hybrid financial system (HyFi) that combines traditional and decentralized finance.
Additionally, Skinner touches on the impact of Generative AI in finance, future jobs in banking, and the importance of purpose-driven strategies in the financial industry. He also shares his predictions for banking in 2050 and the evolving financial landscape in the Middle East.
Join Skinner and me for a fascinating conversation on the future of money.
Listen to Sama and Sarkar debate all these topics and more in this unmissable episode of Money Majlis.
