It’s the end of the month and these news are not commenting themselves – hence we called a powerhouse duo – Conny and Don, two of the biggest global thought-leaders and part of the #BBE family. In this episode, we will talk on the venture front with the 1bln GBP Fintech Fund backed by Mastercard, Barclays and the London Stock Exchange Group and across the Atlantic an impressive $800 million in the three months for Latin American startups. Then Adyen shares falling 40%, a sign of the general climate? We talk about all things AI #FOMO and addressing bias in algorithms and well as news on the fraud monitoring front. We talk responsive credit and regulation (#DORA).
