Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What Getting a Trust Bank Charter Does and Doesn’t Change, with Modern Treasury’s Matt Marcus and Sam Aarons
Q: From a technology and an actual product standpoint, how will obtaining and operationalizing that trust bank change or enhance what Modern Treasury is able to deliver to your clients?
Sam Aarons says operating the PSP within one regulated entity could simplify orchestration across providers and make fiat and crypto conversions faster, improve liquidity, and lower conversion spreads.
What Getting a Trust Bank Charter Does and Doesn’t Change, with Modern Treasury’s Matt Marcus and Sam Aarons
Q: Can you explain what a trust bank charter is, like what it entails, and what it is not?
Sam Aarons says trust banks cannot accept deposits or lend, and describes Modern Treasury's proposed charter as focused on the custody and fiduciary management of digital assets, with related cash services.
How Current’s Proprietary Banking Core Powers Its Move Into the AI Era, with Co-Founder & CTO Trevor Marshall
Q: Where do you see AI having the most impact on fintech in the next few years?
Marshall expects AI to change team productivity and software development, enable more personalized customer insights and actions, improve customer-intent recognition and modeling, and support new agentic payment use cases.
How Current’s Proprietary Banking Core Powers Its Move Into the AI Era, with Co-Founder & CTO Trevor Marshall
Q: Why did Current decide early on to build much of its own technology infrastructure rather than rely on legacy third-party providers?
Marshall says Current wanted to create a differentiated consumer product with a technological moat, which it could not achieve by relying on systems banks could buy off the shelf.
Interview: Brooking’s Aaron Klein on Faster Payments, Consumer Credit & the Fed
Q: What do you see as the main regulatory or structural barriers to faster payments in the U.S., and what would a holistic reform look like?
The main barriers are regulatory silos, the Fed's control over funds flow, and ambiguous enforcement of laws like EFAA and Check 21. A holistic reform would involve a broader regulatory lens (potentially through a unified framework like a working bank account concept) that integrates banks and non-banks, moves towards universal real-time access, and reduces extractive fee structures that disproportionately affect lower-income households.
