Join Iyi Ogiehor as he explores the dynamic world of modern banking and finance. He begins by introducing you to what banking and finance actually are, why it is important to study them together, and the current trends shaping modern banking and finance. Iyi then takes a deep dive into digital banking, exploring what it is, how it has developed and the key technologies that enable it. He also considers the impacts - both good and bad - of digital banking, and the role of regulation in this area. He then turns the focus to globalised finance, exploring how globalisation shapes banking and finance today, where it originates from, and the core principles that underpin it. He also analyses the positive impacts, challenges and need for regulation that it has caused. Finally, Iyi sets you a research task that will get you to pull all of your new knowledge about modern banking and finance together. You will investigate decentralised finance and what it involves, to understand how it is shaking up the future of banking and finance as we know it!
