About this episode:
Today, we're zooming in on one of the hottest buzzwords in financial services: personalisation. But we're not just talking about your bank app greeting you by name - we're asking the big questions:
đ What really makes an experience feel personal?
đ Is it smarter product suggestions, or a full-on redesign of how value is delivered to you?
In this episode, David Barton-Grimley breaks down how banks and fintechs are using personalisation to win hearts (and market share). From AI and chatbots to data-driven insights, weâll explore how emerging tech is transforming static financial tools into dynamic digital companions.
Weâll also tackle the trust factor: how much data are people actually willing to share, and what do they expect in return?
With 91% of consumers saying personalised recommendations boost their engagement, this episode is your cheat sheet for building loyalty, staying relevant, and standing out in a crowded market.
Tune in - because when it comes to the future of finance, itâs personal.
This week's guests:
