Traditional finance is hijacking the future of finance

Emmanuel Daniel, founder of the TAB Global research house, thinks about the effects of digital technology on finance and how the changes it makes possible will impact business and society. In The Great Transition – the personalisation of finance is here, published in September 2022, he predicted that blockchain technology would shift Internet finance from centralised, market-based platforms to a distributed, networked, personalised and democratised model. Today, he is concerned that the future he foresaw is being hijacked by the traditional financial services industry. Future of Finance co-founder Dominic Hobson spoke to Emmanuel Daniel about what went wrong and how it can be put right. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
