  • 851. Insights: How to buy a bank - part 2
    May 2 2024
    Our expert host Kate Moody is joined by some great guests in the second of our two part special, 'How to Buy a Bank'. In the previous episode, David Brear and guests covered what actually happens when one bank decides to buy another. So in this episode we are diving deep inside banks, to uncover what really goes on in the organisations themselves during a merger or acquisition, once the ink is dry and the businesses now have to work together. The process of actually combining two banks can take months, even years, as departments, systems, processes, and people are brought together under one group. Not only do banks need to consider the practical things, like which IT system to use, or how to get everyone from one email server to another, but there are also wider cultural challenges. How do you combine two workforces, and two ways of working, into one harmonious company set up for long term success? This week's guests include: Dave Morris, Global Head of Technology at 11:FS Rupy Malizia, Chief Strategic Transformation Officer at HSBC Innovation Banking Mariela Hunter, a Fractional COO Highlights from this episode: How early in a merger should you think about the tech? (04:30) The hardest thing to manage about a transition (09:25) The focus is 90% on tech and data is an afterthought (14:30) What are the dependencies around a bank? (19:20) Taking staff on the journey (24:30) Leveraging feedback loops (28:45) Merging teams in separate locations (34:55) Company culture and benefits (37:20) Integrating tech, combining cultures, streamlining products - acquisitions have plenty of moving parts but here at 11:FS, we've got the in-house expertise to help make that process as smooth as possible.

    Apr 25 2024
    Our expert host David Brear is joined by some great guests in the first of our two part special, 'How to Buy a Bank'. We have already seen headlines on both sides of the pond this year; in the UK, Nationwide have bid £2.9 billion to take over Virgin Money, while in the US, Capital One hope to acquire Discover in a deal worth over $35 billion. Fintech funding may be going down, but big money M&A is here to stay. So in this episode, we want to take a closer look at why and how banks do it. What reasons do banks have to buy or sell? What’s the process, and how long does it take? And after all is said and done, how does this impact the customer? To have this conversation I am joined by an amazing panel of experts, who have themselves been through a merger or reported on them! This week's guests include: Polo Rocha, Reporter at American Banker Virginia Varela, community bank CEO and former federal regulator Highlights from this episode: Why do banks buy banks? (06:10) A different type of M&A dynamic (14:10) Bank partnerships is like dating... is this marriage material? (20:20) Dealing with two sets of parents (26:50) Do banks lose purpose and focus with M&A (30:15) How to protect the consumer from a merger (35:00) When M&A goes wrong (40:40) Measuring the success of a merger (46:00) Integrating tech, combining cultures, streamlining products - acquisitions have plenty of moving parts but here at 11:FS, we've got the in-house expertise to help make that process as smooth as possible.
