Welcome back, fintech enthusiasts! This episode of Fintech Daydreaming takes you into the latest innovations stirring the financial fjords of the Nordics. Join Pål, Ville, and Janne as they round up some intriguing and occasionally perplexing news from the land of the midnight sun. This episode also serves as a warm-up for the upcoming Nordic Fintech Summit in Helsinki, where we look forward to meeting many of you! First, Pål unpacks the new partnership between ResultElf and Aura Cloud, which promises to bring a new spin to the lending landscape. They're rolling out a new toolkit aimed at creating more efficient lending solutions—because, it seems, money really can grow on cloud-based platforms. Next, Janne explores the exciting collaboration between Alisa Bank and Accountor, who are introducing a novel type of business bank account. This isn't just any bank account; it's designed to transform how businesses manage their finances, merging technology with convenience in ways that might even make your accountant crack a smile - all through the power of an embedded design. Wrapping up the discussion, Ville reflects on the somber news of OP Bank discontinuing their Pivo wallet. We say goodbye to a service once celebrated as a fintech favorite, now joining the ranks of discontinued digital services. We'll explore what may have led to Pivo's demise and discuss its implications for the future of digital wallets in the region. Whether these stories are game-changers or just another chapter in the Nordic fintech saga, this episode promises to unpack the innovations, disruptions, and lessons learned along the way. Tune in for a dose of insightful analysis and witty banter as we decipher whether these latest developments are truly reinventing the wheel—or merely spinning it. - Email us on [email protected] - Fintech Daydreaming home page - https://www.FintechDaydreaming.com - Fintech Daydreaming on Twitter - https://twitter.com/FintechDaydream - Fintech Daydreaming on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/fintech-daydreaming - Pål Krogdahl - https://www.linkedin.com/in/krogdahl/ - Ville Sointu - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ville-sointu-54682b/
