Course programme

  1. 1
    What is fintech
    Payments, digital banks, online lending, insurance and regulatory technology: fintech is with us every day. How do you check that a company operates legally?
  2. Open banking and APIs
    How can one app see your account at another bank? APIs, open banking and consent: what you allow and how to take it back.
  3. Artificial intelligence in finance
    Credit scoring, fraud detection, chatbots and personal tips: what AI can do, where it gets things wrong and why its decision isn't the final word.
  4. Deepfakes and voice cloning
    A voice message in a loved one's voice, a video call with your boss's face: technology can fake both. How to protect yourself and your family with a family code word and the "I'll call you back" rule.
  5. Crypto: a reality check
    Blockchain in a nutshell, sharp price swings, promises of "guaranteed income", pyramid schemes and fake exchanges. The legal status can change, so check the official position.
