Another crucial insight. Economics isn't just a soft science, it is a soft science that pretends to and is granted hard, objective science status. This is what makes it so dangerous. George Washington died because his doctors really believed that bloodletting was the right idea. And because he believed them.

4) @Sibos @Innotribe: How China's #FinTechm will change how the world thinks about banking innotribe.com/wp-content/upl… by @haydn1701 #a3r
This is the backdrop to China’s growth and influence: platforms that make it their mission to enable small businesses to function globally.15
China, the dominant economy, is the land of business platforms for small business enablement and has taken the model further and faster than even the US companies responsible for inventing it.
In terms of overall disruptive power, Alibaba, and its peers, are helping to turbocharge the small business sector, through a unique business model, in which Chinese tech companies treat finance as one aspect of an overall business-enabling environment. It currently consists of adjacencies that few western companies can match and which arguably will over-stretch these young giants.
[..]
These examples are both relatively simplistic and are limited to just commercial banking, but point to the underlying challenge that western financial institutions need to address: by failing to anticipate the future shape of trade and the power of platforms to deliver solutions, western banks are exposing themselves to the erosion of confidence and revenues. They are not innovating fast enough to work alongside enterprises that are under pressure to deliver growth.
Banks have many ways of responding to putative disruption: FinTech, distributed ledger technology, mobile payments or any one of a myriad of hot solutions. However, these threats require little in the way of change to a bank’s core operations. They fit within the existing remit and decision lines. Even where the decision is taken to renew core technology, this fits within a vendor-led consensus that banks have to buy their way out of legacy and silos.

not to mention totally embedded in man made idea f money... of consumerism...
p 19
Finally, reflecting on disruption, it always happens in ways that are not anticipated. Earlier we quoted Deloitte, who believe that banks are doing well in anticipating innovation and disruption. The mere illusion that the disruption points can be anticipated is where the problems of the banks begin. In order to counter potential future challenges, banks need sophisticated planning with well-thought out options. This may take them far from their comfort zone into fast moving, agile platforms where the business is boss and the customer is served across a much wider array of needs.
It is heresy to banks which are retreating to their core, but the future lies with a radical approach to adjacency.

saying bat (a for alibaba) are leading the way
but what if money becomes irrelevant...

"There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!"
The problem is, the machine really needs to work
perhaps not this machine..
