1099. Insights: Subscription banking - Can banks turn customers into subscribers?
About this episode: Subscription banking is growing – but what makes customers willing to pay for something they’ve traditionally expected for free? In this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, host Ross Gallagher is joined by Joe Wilson, Chief Evangelist and Senior Strategist at bunq, and Lukas Hora, Chief Sales Officer at Tapix, to explore the rise of subscription banking and what customers actually value enough to pay for. We look at what makes a paid banking experience feel genuinely premium, whether bigger bundles really mean better value, and if subscriptions can create stronger customer relationships. Plus, we explore what the model means for the economics of banking, the role of data and AI in creating more personalised propositions, and whether banks can ultimately turn customers into subscribers.

1097. Insights: When money moves 24/7, can treasury keep up? With J.P. Morgan
About this episode: Money moves around the clock. But can treasury keep up? In this episode of Fintech Insider, in partnership with J.P. Morgan, host Benjamin Ensor is joined by Amy Eckhoff and Ross Webster from J.P. Morgan, alongside Nium’s Heather O'Gorman, to explore what liquidity management looks like in an increasingly real-time financial system. From navigating liquidity across different markets, currencies and accounts to improving visibility, forecasting and control, our panel looks at what it really takes to build a more connected approach to treasury. We also explore how virtual accounts, automation and evolving liquidity structures can help institutions mobilise cash more effectively — and whether modern treasury can become an enabler of global growth rather than simply an operational function.
