New technologies are dramatically changing the banking landscape: thanks to digitalisation it’s now possible to bypass the high street banks and instead use your phone for most of the things you’d traditionally have needed a bricks and mortar bank for – writes Kirstie McDermott, Senior Content Manager, Amply.
Many of the new challengers are free or low-fee, easy to set up and use and intentionally simple and bureaucracy-light. By downloading an app, and undertaking a few quick steps to verify your identity, you can use a digital challenger bank or app to make payments, transfer funds internationally, split a bill, get a loan or set up a savings account.
Fintech has and is changing the world of finance for consumers in a huge number of useful ways – but it’s not just customers who benefit. The job market does too as an increasing number of bright and bold financial institutions of the future hit the market and need highly qualified teams to build them.
