Are Big Banks Hurting Competition, Innovation and Equality?

Competition in banking has expanded in the past twenty years, yet banking and technology giants are increasingly using proprietary technology and data-driven insights to tilt the playing field.

When smaller financial firms can’t reach the scale needed to compete effectively, there is potential for economic inequality, reduced social responsiveness, and less innovation.

My guest on the Banking Transformed podcast is James Bessen, lecturer at Boston University School of Law and author of the book, ‘The New Goliaths’. Jim shares his perspective that the largest firms have a major competitive advantage, and how democratizing technology, insights and innovation can level the playing field.
