Are banks and bank branch offices headed to the toilet?
Are we seeing banks running out of fresh ideas for how they interact with their customers?
Banking – it’s a safe bet branch banking no longer need safes!
There’ll come a time when carrying cash into the bank will be cause for a mild-panic attack for branch office tellers.
Industry alignment or industry confusion – what is a financial institution?
How industry labels and market segment boxes are no longer so revealing.
Bankers and retailers – will we see roles switch? Or simply morph into a single discipline?
Technology is having a tremendous impact on the way communities shop so changes are more or less expected as we see these shopping mall operators push back on so many dire predictions being made about them. But can they change and yes, could these changes lead to a greater overlap with banking as it exists today?

Time has proved good for HPE and NonStop; banks everywhere can run networks, 24×7!

I had to make a payment from my business checking account to a local government agency and I was reluctant to use my business debit card. Should I have chosen my credit card the agency charged an […]
All that glitters isn’t just our clothes!
When I first started travelling for my job, it wasn’t too afield. I was working in Australia so it involved trips to New Zealand, Singapore and not much more. However, in only a few years, my travel grew to where it became routine to visit the US, Germany and the UK, but with the aircraft […]
With the acceleration of time, will we run out of cash?
“Youth is wasted on the young,” so said George Bernard Shaw. Only recently I read that this wasn’t exactly the quote he gave. To the question of what is the most beautiful thing, the Irishman responded: “Youth is the most beautiful thing in this world—and what a pity that it has to be wasted on […]
Cash continues as the only option – but hold the phone, don’t you recognise me?
As I waited today for the barista to fill my coffee order I picked up the local newspaper; jumping right off the page was the headline, “9 Businesses that are still cash only”! (This was a reference to an article by Laura Woods on the Go Banking Rates website on 2 April 2016.) Of course, […]
