Based on the amount of drama around our podcast hosts catching covid-19 one after the other there might just be a Fintech Daydreaming Netflix series in development sooner than we think. Against the odds we do however have the full crew onboard to hit another first ever for Fintech Daydreaming: we had our first ever guest joining us in two consecutive episodes!  

Jaakko Vilen from nCino joined Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu to give us a (re-)visit to our discussion around the hottest topics in fintech right now: sustainability, cloud and lending transformation. And yes, you will find out how nCino got the name it has today. This involves a movie with a 15% rating in Rotten Tomatoes. You really should hear it.

The myth, the legend, the Nordic digital identity in the fintech world is a fabled story of a utopian world where everything is digital and cash is obsolete. Is it true? If it is, how does it all work and how did it come to be?

Fintech Daydreaming is a Nordic based podcast so of course Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu had to find out, and who better to tell us all about it than the lead of ID solutions in the largest financial institution in the Nordics: Mikko Hiekkataipale from Nordea Bank.

Tune in to hear everything you ever wanted to know about the history and future of Nordic and European digital identity, and while you’re at it: try to count the times one of the hosts mixes customers with listeners.

The fintechs are coming! The fintechs are coming!

Or are they? If you listen to the media it would seem banks have been on the verge of going extinct for as long as we've had online commerce but today in 2021 it would seem not much has changed in the big picture.

We had the privilege of having Likhit Wagle join Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu on this episode of Fintech Daydreaming to discuss the global perspective on the dynamics between banks, fintechs and bigtechs. Perhaps the future is here after all - just not evenly distributed?
