We know, we know… Prediction episodes are so cliché. And somehow, experts have an incredible way of dramatically overestimating what we, as an industry, can accomplish in the next year while also dramatically underestimating what we can do in the next ten.

So, let’s reframe the way we do predictions; how about that?

Frank Rotman, the Chief Investment Officer at QED Investors who dislikes end-of-year predictions with all of his heart, gamely gives Alex his 10-year estimate of what the fintech landscape will look like… and can we just say — his answers are absolute dynamite!

He maps out what rapidly progressing AI capabilities mean for the stock market, why financial institutions will be forced to completely restructure their costs, and how the intrabank settlement process will, at long last, be modernized.

And one last, final prediction? This episode will age like a glass of fine wine. Hopefully.
