DigFin Vox 06 – Asia’s missing challenger banks

Why has Asia not seen the emergence of a challenger bank seeking to disrupt traditional banks head-on? The U.K. has Atom Bank, Germany has N26, and the U.S. has a variety of neb-banks transforming banking channels. Guest host David Zweifler and DigFin’s Jame DiBiasio discuss how Asian fintech startups such as Baasis and Marvelstone are taking lateral approaches to recreating banking infrastructure or reinventing the financial institution without confronting banks – and why Asian banks could emerge even stronger.
