This Week in Fintech (9/4)
Hello Fintech Friends,
I hope our US readers are taking some downtime this Labor Day. Nobody needs news going into a holiday weekend, so today will feature a shorter TWIF with only deeper reads. We’ll resume with the news (including this past week’s) on Tuesday 9/8.
Separately, I’m hosting a series of fintech geo deep-dives to break down specific markets. Each country will be covered in a 1-hour session with Q&A. We’ll try to schedule them over the course of one Friday, so that people who are interested can join for any or all. If you’d be interested in listening in or presenting, please fill out this form.
Have a great weekend,
Nik
