Hi everybody.

Did you know the financial services industry is undergoing what my guest expert calls a "third wave"? Even better, did you know that the Fintech revolution that’s driving this is, and will, offer lots of opportunities for those who possess all kinds of skill sets? Sound interesting? If so, you’ll definitely want to hear what Dami Payne, of Canopy Servicing, has to say on this episode of Looking Forward: Opportunities for Job, Career, Business, and Investment Seekers.

Among other things, Dami talks about (1) the first two "waves" of the Fintech revolution, and the "third wave" that will now cause this industry to explode, (2) two areas of the world that have led the Fintech revolution, (3) some businesses that have led the Fintech explosion, (4) what impact AI might have on Fintech, and (4) how the Fintech industry may evolve thru the rest of this decade.

In true Looking Forward fashion, you'll also learn about the myriad opportunities Fintech presents for job and career seekers, entrepreneurs, businesses, and investors. Dami also provides some great tips on how you can capitalize on these opportunities.
