Is the future of SME banking specialisation? | Fintech Insider Insights podcast | Ep. 732

Benjamin Ensor is joined by some great guests, from Branch, Iwoca, and Treyd, to look at the opportunities and challenges of specialised offerings for small and medium-sized businesses.

This week's guests include:
• Atif Siddiqi, Founder/CEO, Branch
• Lara Gilman, Head of New Ventures, Iwoca
• Peter Beckman, CEO, Treyd

Whether you prefer the abbreviation ‘SME’ or ‘SMB’ - the truth is that there is a vast collection of businesses wrapped up in those three letters.

The World Economic Forum estimates that 90% of businesses globally can be categorised as SMEs. That’s a lot of businesses to cover with the same financial services offerings - so maybe it’s time to specialise!

Our panel discuss: an overview of how SME banking works today, the challenges of serving small business niches, and whether the future will see more niche-focused products.
