Our expert host, Kate Moody, is joined by some great guests to ask: 'Do parents need better financial services?'

Our expert host, Kate Moody, is joined by some great guests to ask: "What will define the user experience in financial services this year?" No matter how amazing your financial services product may be, if the UX isn’t up to scratch, then no one is going to find out. But there’s no set-in-stone rules for these journeys and experiences, and there’s many external factors which may shape a product from one year to the next. So what were the successes of 2022, what were the challenges of the last twelve months, and what do we predict will dominate user experiences in 2023?

Our expert host, Nicole Perry, is joined by some great guests to discuss the potential of social media networks becoming banks. At the end of 2022, Elon Musk held a meeting with Twitter employees laying out plans to turn the social network into a bank - complete with a high-yield money market account, debit cards, checks, and loans. Musk is not the first social media mogul to see the power of combining banking and social networks – but, to date, that melding of likes and filters with APIs and KYC has proved difficult in many markets. So how have these two worlds collided so far, what is stopping social media banks from happening, and what could happen in the future?

Our expert host, Benjamin Ensor, is joined by some great guests to ask: "Can financial services ever be sustainable?” From the carbon cost of everyday payment transactions, data servers, plastic credit cards, and investments in polluting industries - not to mention the international conferences that require some serious jet-setting – it’s safe to say that our industry has never looked to put its environmental impact front and centre.
