WHAT are the Implications ?
ECONOMY
Move To A Trustless Transaction Economy & Society i.e. Mobile, Frictionless Products and Services
Merging of Tech and Financial Services Companies: Ultimately Banks become “service nodes on the
network”, Markets and Business Models disrupted and redefined e.g. Funding, Lending …
Human Capital Still Key. Wave of Creative Destruction, Education / Demographics will drive Talent
Acquisition / Retention e.g. Work/Life Balance, JIT work force, Corporate Structure Evolution - DAOs ?
TECHNOLOGY
The Internet Of Value: Blockchain, Mobile, Big Data, IoT and AI:
● Transition from Username/Password (“Shared Secret”) Security Model, to new unified,
digital and device identity model
● Cryptocurrencies and Fiat currencies converge to fully enable P2P economy
● Programmable Assets, Trust, Ownership, Money, Identity, Contracts
● Smart Contracts & Applications utilize Blockchain, Big Data, AI etc. to remove latencies, include
billions of IoT devices, automate business processes and move up the Intelligence curve.
→ Shorter Settlement Cycles, → New Products and Services → The Rise of Robo Advice !

WHEN will impact reach the tipping point ?
The disruption of the financial sector is underway. FinTech / Financial Services Collaboration
and Convergence are reshaping the value proposition of existing products and services.
Banking and Payments are ripe in the short to mid term, followed by Insurance and Asset
Management.
The “Tipping Point” may be driven by some of these facts, surveys, estimates and needs:
» Over 20% of Financial Service business at risk to Fin Techs
» Up to 28% of Banking and Payments business at risk by 2020
» Up to 22% of Insurance, Asset / Wealth Management business at risk by 2020
» 25% of Financial Services firms do not liaise with FinTech companies at all. They will
underestimate the potential benefits and threats of the convergence.
» Mobile only accounts for 16% of Advertisement Revenue Today, within 5 years,
expectations are that 60% of clients will be using mobile applications (at least once a
month) to access financial services
» Large scale Digital Wallet adoption is critical and requires simplified key management
(FYI: Apple Iphone App store now supports 9 cryptocurrencies … )
» Must solve the Millennial Problem
