The Vaizey View offers an insider's perspective on the tech and media industry in the UK and Europe. Hosted by Lord Ed Vaizey, who served as the UK'sTech Minister for six years, the show features analysis of the latest happenings in the tech space through interviews with the movers and shakers behind the scenes, with a particular focus on how tech disruption is changing public policy in so many areas. You'll get unfiltered opinions and the characteristic dry wit of someone who's seen it all and wants to help his audience get smarter and more insightful about the issues of the day.
Today Ed sits down with a pair of authors who’ve managed to do the impossible: make the mechanics of financial transactions fascinating. The pair’s recently published book, “The Pay Off: How Changing the Way We Pay Changes Everything,” (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B094F69F8Q/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1), underscores how the explosion of new payment systems around the world is impacting consumers and the broader economy. Leibbrandt, a former McKinsey Partner and the CEO of Swift (as in ‘Swift Code’) for a decade and De Teran, a veteran journalist who served as Corporate Affairs lead at Swift, have a unique perspective on the topic; their chat spans the implications of “programmable money” and why credit card companies should be worried.
