The financial system has become so much more complex over the last couple of decades that it is difficult to know what current trends will have staying power. How will the future financial system organize itself and will it look that much different to what we have today? I put these questions to one of the global thought leaders in fintech.

My next guest on the Fintech One-on-One podcast is Emmanuel Daniel, the founder of The Asian Banker (now part of TAB Global) and one of the most interesting people in fintech today. He talks about the Great Transition, the title of his recent book, and details what is going to be important for the success of the financial institution of the future.

In this podcast you will learn:

• How starting The Asian Banker launched a global platform.
• A short history on the rise of fintech in China.
• Why the Chinese regulators found the rise of fintech so challenging.
• Why China will struggle to be leaders in the AI revolution.
• Why Emmanuel decided to write a book on the personalization of finance.
• What the U.S. needs to do to ensure the dollar remains the reserve currency of the world.
• What is to become of platforms and the whole of idea of intermediation.
• Emmanuel's advice to innovators when it comes to regulation.
• How the next banking crisis will unfold.
• What could precipitate a change away from the dominance of the large banks.
• What is needed for the safety and soundness of the financial system of the future.
• Why the most important thing in the future is to be networked rather than large.
