On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, host David Barton-Grimley is joined by some great guests to take a look at Australian fintech.
It’s been a wild couple of years for the whole global fintech industry, and Australia is no exception. We’ve seen a big slowdown in new startups, and a pretty severe drop in investment.
So, is the optimism still strong with those who are in this space? Well we knew just who to ask…
Fintech Australia, the country's fintech advocacy group, exists to promote the interests of Australian fintechs across the country and the globe. Earlier this year they went through a leadership shake up, with previous chair and Australian fintech hero Simone Joyce announcing that she’ll be leaving her full time role there.
This week's guests:
Simone Joyce, CEO/Founder of PayPa Plane & outgoing chair of Fintech Australia
Sarah Gorman, new Chair of Fintech Australia and Head of Growth & Marketing, at DAS (Digital Agriculture Services)

Our expert host Kate Moody is joined by some great guests in the second of our two part special, 'How to Buy a Bank'.
In the previous episode, David Brear and guests covered what actually happens when one bank decides to buy another. So in this episode we are diving deep inside banks, to uncover what really goes on in the organisations themselves during a merger or acquisition, once the ink is dry and the businesses now have to work together.
The process of actually combining two banks can take months, even years, as departments, systems, processes, and people are brought together under one group.
Not only do banks need to consider the practical things, like which IT system to use, or how to get everyone from one email server to another, but there are also wider cultural challenges.
How do you combine two workforces, and two ways of working, into one harmonious company set up for long term success?
This week's guests include:
Dave Morris, Global Head of Technology at 11:FS
Rupy Malizia, Chief Strategic Transformation Officer at HSBC Innovation Banking
Mariela Hunter, a Fractional COO
Highlights from this episode:
How early in a merger should you think about the tech? (04:30)
The hardest thing to manage about a transition (09:25)
The focus is 90% on tech and data is an afterthought (14:30)
What are the dependencies around a bank? (19:20)
Taking staff on the journey (24:30)
Leveraging feedback loops (28:45)
Merging teams in separate locations (34:55)
Company culture and benefits (37:20)
Integrating tech, combining cultures, streamlining products - acquisitions have plenty of moving parts but here at 11:FS, we've got the in-house expertise to help make that process as smooth as possible. Whether you're laying the foundations for a big move or trying to break free of ongoing legacy tech issues, 11:FS Ventures is here to help. Get in touch at 11fs.com/ventures and let's chat.

In season two of Fintech Insider Focus, in collaboration with Visa, our expert hosts, 11:FS' Benjamin Ensor alongside Visa's Hasan Kazmi, shine a light on fintech in different parts of the world. In the first part of this season we hone in on the Middle East’s booming financial sector, and speak to the people right at the heart of it.
In this episode they take a closer look at Bahrain, a country which has championed open banking in the Middle East. They explore the fintech landscape in Bahrain and the impact open banking has had on it to date, the potential challenges they’ve had along the way, and what this tells us about how regulation and innovation can co-exist super effectively, and can foster a thriving financial ecosystem.
This week's guests include
Hasan Kazmi, Head of Digital Partnerships for CEMEA at Visa
Abdulla Almoayed, Founder and CEO of Tarabut

Our expert hosts Rachel Pandyan is joined by some great guests to talk about how ESG is being championed by financial services to create meaningful change, not just for our industry, but for the whole world.
ESG is a term most of us have heard, and it became a buzz word, a catch-all term to represent climate-conscious action and social responsibility. However, it's not just a cultural zeitgeist. Issues around climate change, gender parity, and corporate culture have also become key political battlegrounds around the world. These issues matter, and they resonate with huge numbers of people.
But what have we actually done to move the dial in making our industry, and our world, a more sustainable and equitable place?
As banks and other financial services providers invest more and more into ESG programmes, we want to take a look at what our industry has done, and what it continues to do, as ESG becomes evermore important to customers.
From new banks targeting environmentally-conscious Gen Z-ers, to how more established banks might implement the changes needed to build ESG into their culture, we are going to discuss how financial service providers are driving meaningful change, and the challenges they still face in doing so.
This week's guests include:
Lisa Stanley, co-founder at Good With Money and chief sustainability officer at Zero
Gail Gallie, Co-Founder at Project Everyone
Highlights from this episode:
How far has ESG come in financial services? (04:08)
"An ongoing inability at leadership level" (06:20)
The long term impact of staying as we are (10:17)
ESG is so much bigger than climate (13:00)
ESG in investment landscape (17:13)
Consumer-driven change (20:05)
The impact of not caring about ESG (24:05)
The tangible benefit to customers (28:00)
The UN sustainable development goals (31:38)
"The strength is in the collective" (36:22)
What can we do? (38:33)
