Days 6 and 7 of the of the 2023 Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) UK and Money20/20 FinTech delegation and M2020 days 2 and 3 highlights and key takeaways: B2B FinTech, sustainability, and profitable growth remain key focus areas. Enjoyed listening to and learning from FinTech leaders on building sustainable long term businesses: Ali Niknam, bunq CEO: 👉 bunq have always successfully charged for their products, even when others took a “focus on growth and monetize later approach” 👉 If we can’t build something that people love and are willing to pay a small price for then what are we doing here 👉 Future of NeoBanking is exciting and boring. Future of traditional banking is just boring Alexandre Prot, Qonto CEO, on reconciling growth and profitability in a sustainable way. 👉 With growth comes responsibility 👉 FinTech can be a negative contributor to climate change (e.g. data storage usage and facilitating money flow to non-green investments and purchases) 👉 Qonto measures and considers its carbon footprint on a per employee basis Mastercard on why the future of business payments are virtual: 👉 Reduce potential for fraud 👉 Improve transaction reconciliation 👉 Easier to control and manage spending Finally, thank you to the Austrade team for the opportunity to take part in the Australian delegation across the UK and Money 20/20 and be part of the conversation. For Parpera and me, the benefits from the learnings and connections made have been immense. The opportunities for FinTech to unlock sustainable economic progress remain significant and we look forward to playing a role. On my way back to London now for one more week in the region for follow up meetings and some important Australia launch planning. Hope to share more on this very soon! 🙂 Get in touch if you’re in town and want to catch up 🇬🇧 Austrade Europe, UK and Israel | Australian Trade and Investment Commission FinTech Australia Stuart Keen Anastasia (Ana) Nishnianidze Sagra Clorio-Jessel Paul Webster Investment NSW #fintech #money2020 #money2020eu #parpera #business

Platforms like Money20/20 Asia is invaluable for like-minded industry players to gather, spark ideas and create synergies so it's been nothing short of inspiring to be here with my team! What started as an invitation to represent ANEXT Bank to exchange insights with fellow panelists Dwight Willis and Kaia R. Parv, CFA, led by Micky Tesfaye on "Open Banking and Embedded Finance in Asia" very quickly turned into a learning experience for myself. At ANEXT Bank, we believe strongly that SMEs, especially small and growing businesses, should be able to get accessible and effortless financial services, and the ANEXT Programme for Industry Specialists (APIs) is our way to scale this through Embedded Finance. But there are many roads leading to the same destination as the people I've met during this electrifying event will attest to. #EmFi remains important and pivotal to Asia, where it's not just about access to finance but about tailoring solutions to anticipate and meet the diverse needs of #microbusinesses and #SMEs. There are tremendous opportunities, but the real magic happens when we come together. Collaboration of the #ecosystem is key to unlocking the full potential. Only by pooling insights, capabilities and technology know- how, and with the full participation of FIs, #FinTechs, regulators and the bigger digital ecosystem, we can then drive meaningful impact and shape a more inclusive financial future for Asia and beyond. This trip to the land of smiles and the doors that Money20/20 has opened is much needed - I'm humbled by the hunger of this industry on wanting to make an impact. I'm reinvigorated to do more, to do better for SMEs and to do so with more partners. And I'm definitely enamoured with the locals and their positive attitude and way of life! Thailand, we will be back! Khaawp-khun mak kha! #Money2020 #FinTech #DigitalBanking #bringaboutwhatsnext #financialinclusion

I didn’t know if I could do big industry events any more, so attending my first in SEVEN YEARS gave me mixed feelings of fear and hope, but Money20/20 has kick-started something exciting in me! People do business... not machines. Zoom lets us execute business in a transactional way that we hadn't previously been able to. But our over-reliance on it impacts human connection, the ability to be entirely present and actively listen. I didn’t know it, but being with people who had travelled from every corner of the globe to firm-up existing relationships and start new ones for the greater good of their business was something I had truly missed. I must have met more than 40 people over two days. Sitting down and talking - even for 15-minute meetings - provided more insight into them, their business and their industry, than any video call. Despite the battering of body and mind at times, Money 20/20 has made me grateful for the opportunity to spend this year travelling for WINR. So, what had I (almost) forgotten in those seven years about conferences: • Keep hydrated • Wear comfortable shoes • Don't be afraid to go to ANY stand and talk to ANYONE • Take advantage of the local cuisine and culture • Look up - don't look at your phone when walking around Huge thank you to Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) and FinTech Australia who had a great stand with a brilliant barista who set me up with a mean flat white each day. Australia is ranked 8th in #fintech around the world and it's a joy to see us so well represented on a global stage. #money2020 #identityverification #fraudprevention

In Amsterdam at the RAI for the Money20/20 Europe event, we met with Stuart Keen, Head of Community and Global Engagement at FinTech Australia, to delve into the organisation’s core activities and operations. Fintech Australia is a leading industry association representing and advocating for the Australian fintech ecosystem. Their mission is to support and foster the growth of fintech innovation in the country through collaboration, education, and policy advocacy. “We support about 450 businesses, fintech companies large and small. They’re our members, and we support them in the domestic fintech ecosystem.” “Early on, it was really an education piece for the companies, and then looking at how we can help those companies access the market, educate themselves and then scale from there. So, for me really, it’s about, now that they’re educated, the businesses know a lot, they’re capable of doing really well back home in Australia: How can we help them to succeed in new markets?” “I like connecting with the companies that are doing really innovative things, because they’re the ones who are the most unique, cutting-edge and exciting. It’s not about me, it’s not about us, it’s about those companies and how they’re really doing.” #money2020europe #fintechaustralia #fintech #fintechcompanies
