Hey all, Jason here with the latest episode of Fintech Recap, the monthly-ish podcast where Alex Johnson, creator of Fintech Takes newsletter, and I talk through some of the biggest stories in banking and fintech.
This month, we’re talking about:
Citi’s decision to stop charging overdraft and NSF fees.
Chime’s (reported) decision to delay its IPO.
SoFi’s decision to acquire core banking provider Technisys.
Crypto companies advertising blitz in Super Bowl LVI.
And, on a more serious and important note, Alex and I also spent a few minutes at the top of the episode talking about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
If you are looking to learn more about the conflict and ways that you can help, I highly recommend starting with this piece written by Packy McCormick.
If you are looking to understand how the conflict is impacting Ukrainian fintech companies, Nicole Casperson has done some excellent reporting that you should read.
And if you’re curious to learn more about the mechanics of economic sanctions, take a look at Simon Taylor’s latest newsletter.
