I've been on the FInTech side of payments for decades on all sides of the equation, Bank, VISA, Vendor and Donor but basically doing the same thing - helping teams of payment executives design and deploy innovative payment solutions and make them work. In this space, I've got a few world first's under my belt ....- World first P2P/M2M Visa Card2Card payment system (VISA) 2003- World first verified by Visa mobile proxy authentication (PAYM8) 2005- World first and patented card control system (Tranwall) 2007- World first Multi-Service Provider payment system for Social Cash Transfer (World Bank) 2016As is required, I am a functional expert in EMV, P2P, X2X, VbV, HCE, G2P, UEPS, MFS, DFS, GSM, USSD and even some ISO 8583 & 14443b RFID.I am particularly well travelled so have in-field experience in FinTech deployment for G2P, Social Cash Transfers & Financial inclusion from Developing countries in Africa, Southern Asia and Latin America from key markets like India, China, Mexico & Nigeria and my favourites The Bahamas and Mauritius.I have been a Senior FinTech Consultant to The World Bank for over 15 years but have also worked with UNICEF, DFID, CGAP, Concern Worldwide, Opportunity International, IADB, BTCA & UNDP on the review, design and deployment of national scale electronic payment systems.I enjoy public speaking and presenting so normally do it for free, having chaired various international payments and telco conferences;Life Philosophy: I "work to live" not "live to work" ... so in all honesty, I can't wait to get home again to see my Wife and kids and to go Kitesurfing.
