‘Everyone must now have a global view, no one can stay confined in his/her geographical space.’
‘The pandemic has shown us the inadequacies for some banks’ desktops, platforms and apps. Consumers are now using those apps, including the non-digital natives who used to visit banking branches in person and weren’t used to digital engagements.’
‘If you’ve created a startup bank, you need to remember that you’re operating In a regulated industry and if you ‘colour outside of the lines’ the regulator is going to come down on you. So, make sure to bring in experienced people to your C-Suite or Board.’
‘Everyone knows how to innovate, but everyone does not know how to execute. You need to be given space and the finance to fail. It needs to be OK and not damaging to your growth path or career prospects if you’re going to fail too. Acceptance of different growth paths need to be accepted from the top, if that openness doesn’t permeate from the top-down then nobody’s going to try to grow smartly or differently.’
