Why bail-outs fail and people power will succeed ‘Lipstick on a Pig: Why Bail-outs Fail and People Power Will Succeed’ is the first of a new series of books by Zopa co-founder Simon Deane-Johns (aka ‘The Pragmatist’) that take a subversive and irreverent look at how the relationship between society and its institutions is changing, fundamentally and forever - how we, as individuals, are personalising the one-size-fits-all existence traditionally offered by our institutions; and what the impact of this trend will be on our financial system, politics, unions, the church and beyond.

Banking Blog » Finovate Spring 2011 Roundup
Last week I headed out to San Francisco for Finovate Spring . Finovate is my favourite conference of the year for a few reasons. I actually attend the demos and am not in meetings the entire time; the demos are a short 7 minutes – more than enough time for an analyst to make a quick judgement; and finally, it is a true showcase of bank innovation. It’s a mix of companies, some are 2 guys in a garage, others are small companies, and a few are established players. The range of solutions on display is interesting, exciting, and thought provoking.

This post will require some indulgence on your part. Commenting on tweets coming from a conference that I didn't attend may seem as bogus as someone recommending a book based on a book review and not having read the book. It’s just that every day brings news and commentary that underscore the importance of financial marketers stepping up their game and sharpening their awareness of developments in this space. Some input for your consideration today comes from Finovate Fall 2010 , a conference that offers an opportunity for 50-plus fintech companies to present short video demos of their innovations. The goal of this visibility is to gain customers, venture capital funding, partnerships and media coverage.
