I'm delighted to be in Amsterdam for the private Wealth & Family Office Forum where I've been invited to moderate the panel - Investing in Frontier Tech for Sustainable Impact: Climate, CleanTech, DeepTech, and FinTech, to explore how the convergence of frontier technologies — ranging from Climate, CleanTech and DeepTech to FinTech — is reshaping both industries and investment strategies.

For the next two days, I join the celebrations, keynotes, roundtables, VIP dinner & SAIL fireworks set against the breathtaking backdrop of 10.000+ boats, at the Amsterdam Harbor at a stunning waterfront venue.

[Matt Gubba @MattGubba]

Mainstream lenders are making it harder and more expensive for small businesses and consumers to access affordable borrowing.

This is great for the big banks and large corporations but terrible for the rest of us.

Over the past decade, the profit margins earned by credit card providers have soared.

The average APR charged on cards has increased from 12.9% to 22.8%... an increase of 9.9%

Meanwhile, their own cost of borrowing has only increased from 3.3% to 8.5%... an increase of 5.2%

The net effect?

A 48.96% increase in their profit margin.

This is despite defaults and charge-off rates being lower than 10 years ago.

It's pure profiteering at our expense.

We are being price gouged, and it needs to stop.

@CWI_Podcast @MattGubba Nice photo, Geo. Is that a new jacket? 😜

[Valhalla Network DAO @ValhallaDAO_]

@MattGubba As interest rates rise, the margin increases = increased profits for lenders (in particular banks).

If banks operate with the community in mind, this could actually result in a healthier economy (healthy banks -> healthy economy).
