Show Notes
In this episode, we're going Under the Hood of banking licences!
We look at the challenges of getting a banking licence and why it’s so tough (especially in the US) , but also how not having a licence of your own is no longer a drawback, and through the beauty of Banking as a Service and partnerships, you don’t necessarily need your own licence any more to be able to offer successful financial services product.
To join Simon Taylor and Sankaet Pathak on this journey, we’re joined by some excellent guests.
Siddharth Verma, Co-founder OnJuno
Joanne Dewar, CEO, Global Processing Services
