So what’s at the top of the trends list for this year’s event?

APIs

Europe isn’t the only country with its eye on open banking. Because of the efficiencies they stand to gain, banks across the globe are considering how they can get ahead by creating a more open ecosystem. Additionally, many banks are finding value in buying and integrating white-label technology over building new technology in-house, which is creating a larger market for open APIs and SDKs across fintech.

AI and machine learning

While they’re not the same, these two enabling technologies go hand-in-hand. And it’s no wonder they came out on the top of the trends list at FinovateSpring– AI and machine learning have empowered banks to create technologies that help with everything from automating investing, enhancing marketing efforts, and improving customer service.

Lending

This is always a space worth paying attention to, because there is a lot of money to be made for both banks and fintechs if they do it right, and there’s a lot of money to be lost if they do it wrong. Additionally, with the increasing prevalence of enabling technologies such as the blockchain, AI, and cognitive computing, lenders are discovering improved underwriting, loan issuance, and debt recovery options.
