At Serene, we asked 500+ people navigating financial or personal challenges what they need most from their financial service providers. The results? A wake-up call for the industry: ✨ 𝟖𝟔% would share Open Banking data if it led to timely, tailored support 🔄 𝟓𝟔% needed help—but never asked for it 🔐 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐬: Twice as many people would share data with Serene (𝟒𝟐%) than with their provider (𝟐𝟎%) In an age of digital tools and rising expectations, support must be personal, proactive, and built on consent—not assumptions. As Tim Kelleway, MD at D•One by ClearScore Group, so aptly puts it: “𝑶𝒑𝒆𝒏 𝑩𝒂𝒏𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒇𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝒂 𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒆 𝒗𝒊𝒆𝒘 𝒐𝒇 𝒂 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒖𝒎𝒆𝒓’𝒔 𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏, 𝒚𝒆𝒕 𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒔 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓-𝒍𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒅.

Fintech Sandbox reposted this
At Fintech Sandbox, we interview and evaluate multiple startups weekly for inclusion in the Data Access Residency. The number of startups incorporating AI into their solutions continues to grow. This past week, 100% of the startups we reviewed included AI as a core part of their product. I’m fascinated by the speed of this evolution in this corner of fintech. Startups we talk to are no longer just enhancing decision-making with data insights. They’re now pushing the envelope by incorporating Agentic AI, AI that acts autonomously and intelligently on behalf of the user. This week, we interviewed our first startup that incorporated Agentic AI into its platform. We are rapidly moving toward a future where every tech platform will have Agentic AI built in. I can easily envision trading assistants that analyze market trends and make trades, or personal finance tools that manage investments and optimize saving and spending. The possibilities are endlessly exciting for the future of fintech! As these technologies evolve, the questions on my mind are: How will consumers feel about collaborating with AI agents, especially in managing their digital financial accounts? What will it take before they trust AI to make important financial decisions on their behalf? If you are looking to talk about AI or Fintech in Massachusetts join the Mass Fintech Hub for our meetup this Thursday night.
