Welcome back to another episode of the FinTech Focus Podcast where Toby welcomes Kenny Eon, GM & SVP, International Sales at Emburse.On this episode, Kenny talks about how to streamline a business’ spending strategy and identified the out-dated, traditional systems that businesses still adopt today which stump growth in a post-pandemic world. The pair discussed how travel changed during the pandemic and how that impacted businesses’ views on whether certain travel is a necessity in an age where many more conferences are being held digitally. Kenny talks about the introduction of temporary spending cards for individuals travelling on behalf of a company which ultimately allows for better reporting, monitoring and responsibility on the individual. This was a direct response to the change in travel behaviour across the globe and has helped businesses have more control over a sometimes chaotic financial strategy.FinTech Focus TV is powered by Harrington Starr, global leaders in Financial Tech Recruitment.
