Hey all, Jason here.
Alex Johnson, creator of the Fintech Takes newsletter, and I are happy to bring you the latest episode of our monthly podcast, Fintech Recap, where we unpack some of the biggest stories in fintech, banking, and crypto.
This episode is brought to you by Limited. Limited gives your business bank accounts in the US, Europe, Latin America, Africa, and MENA from one platform.
Issue expense cards, manage team spending, and pay out to vendors and contractors through 300+ local payment rails in 80+ currencies, not just SWIFT. That means faster settlement, lower fees, and no more waiting days for a cross-border wire to land. Your funds are held in your own custody, never pooled, never exposed to someone else’s risk.
In this episode, Alex and I had the chance to discuss:
Why seemingly every fintech, crypto, and stablecoin company wants to become a bank (and what it could mean for their valuations)
A return to BaaS Island: CFSB’s consent order, and how it compares to those of other fintech partner banks
President Trump’s fintech- and banking-related executive orders
And, as always, what Alex and I just can’t let go of
