Dexter Cousins is joined by Steve Weston CEO and Co-Founder of Volt Bank.

It's been a wild ride for Volt, as it has every neo bank! Volt have carved the path as Australia's first new bank of the millennia and the first 'Neo bank' to be granted a full banking license in Australia.

Tune in for a candid chat with Steve where we talk about the challenges of making the Neo Bank model work. Expect to see Volt hit the market with new consumer products in early 2021 and the Beta savings product is in market now.

The world has changed and the future of banking is uncertain. Steve shares the Volt 2.0 strategy which sees them partner with Microsoft to provide banking as a service to any business wishing to sell financial products.

It's a strategy that will help Volt scale globally and at an exponential rate.

Impressive partnerships with Salesforce and Paypal in place gives Volt bank the opportunity to strike (excuse the pun, totally intended.)
