Glen speaks with author and Finavator CEO Michelle Beyo about
her forthcoming book, her takes on the power of data and “trust as
the new currency,” and her open banking sessions at August’s
Fintech South Conference. Also, US instant payment volumes spike
(relatively speaking) and Samsung/Barclays aim to take a bite of
the Apple.
