This week we have some huge stories for you as David and Simon are joined by Tom Blomfield, CEO of Monzo, and Romi Savova, CEO of PensionBee.

We kick off the episode with a story that’ll give you 24 billion reasons to be impressed with the state of the UK’s financial industry. It’s the first time the four biggest lenders have made more than £20BN since 2007 and while it might appear to be a return to the good old days of pre-financial crisis finances, Romi points out that although the numbers are great, they might not be as great as they would have been in 2007 due to balance sheets.

In the latest episode of the What the FinTech? podcast, we’re joined by Marion King, chair and trustee of the Open Banking Implementation Entity (OBIE) and non-executive director at payments company Cashflows, to chat about the current state of play and next steps for open banking in the UK following the much-anticipated release of the Joint Regulatory Oversight Committee’s recommendations.

Marion and FinTech Futures editor Paul Hindle discuss whether the new recommendations can help the UK maintain its position as a leader in the open banking space, whether concerns around the lack of clarity in the country’s vision for open banking have been alleviated, and whether there’s a way to monetise open banking amid concerns from banks about the lack of commercial returns.

We also find out what’s next for the OBIE, dive into some of the trends and developments in the digital payments space, and discuss how the fintech sector should be doing more to reduce the gender pay gap.

And finally, we find out what fintech buzzword Marion wants to throw into our Fintech Jail!
