About this episode:

Host Laura Watkins (Director of Media and Marketing at 11:FS) is joined by a brilliant panel to unpack these topics before diving into some of the biggest fintech stories of the week.

Sunday 8th March marked International Women’s Day, celebrating the social, political and economic achievements of women around the world. This year’s theme, “Give to Gain,” highlights the power of reciprocity and support - the idea that when individuals, organisations and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women grow.

In this week’s Fintech Insider News, we dedicate the first half of the show to two important conversations shaping the industry: the fraud gender gap and women in wealth management.

This week's guests:

Ruth Foxe Blader - Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Citrine Venture Partners

Rebecca Owers - UK Head of Wealth and specialists at HSBC

Denise Johansson - Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Enfuce
