Together with host Matteo Rizzi alongside esteemed guests Jas Shah and Helen Yu, the conversation traverses the buzzing fintech sphere, exploring rumors (or not so much of a rumor?) of Alphabet Inc.'s potential investment in Monzo and the unwinding of Apple's partnership with Goldman Sachs for its credit card. The dialogue expands to discuss Intuit's decision to shut down its popular Mint budgeting tool, sparking reflections on the broader landscape of Personal Finance Management (PFM). The hosts dissect Binance's CZ and SBF trials, pondering the future of crypto amidst rising trends and the importance of trust. The episode takes a closer look at the UK Government's ambitious smart data expansion, questioning the magnitude of its impact.
