Our perception of money is changing rapidly, and banks are at the center of all of it. From how we access it to how we buy to how we trust that our money will be there when we need it.
Here on Bank Nerd Corner, Kiah Haslett brings on a rotating cast of expert bankers, economists, academics and more to sit down and talk about the complex dynamics shaping financial services today.
Banks exist at the crossroads between risk and safety, private business and public policy and new technology and some of the oldest laws we have.
If we can understand what is changing and what probably won’t, we’ll be in a better position to respond strategically. And, hopefully, we’ll understand the strange creature that is financial services a little bit better.

Kiah and Alex catch up ahead of the inaugural Fintech Takes: Builders Summit to discuss how to dress for an event that cold as well as potentially plan to play a nerdy board game that could be about banking while they’re there.
They then break down the news. First up is the public (and Alex’s) confusion around the proposed skinny master account from Fed Gov. Christopher Waller, which could either be a potential national money transmitter license or is a narrow fix for a handful of unusual institutions. Kiah then recaps the sad and strange tale of the 2023 failure of Heartland Tri-State Bank, including the recent twist about who is considered a victim that needs restitution.
Finally, Kiah discusses two of her favorite things: banking and travel cards. But this time, it’s not a credit card.
