Miguel Armaza interviews Oliver Hughes, Head of International Business at TBC Bank, a Central Asian leading bank that’s publicly traded on the LSE with a $2B market cap. Oliver is also a true fintech leader - in the past, he was the CEO of Russia’s Tinkoff bank, where he built the operations from scratch to become the most profitable digital bank in the world, eventually reaching a market cap of more than $20B. He’s been leading in fintech well before anyone was talking about it.

We discuss:

Leading Tinkoff Bank for 15 years and becoming the most profitable digital bank worldwide
Why global fintech investors should be paying attention to Central Asia and Uzbekistan
A preview of what the future of personal banking might look like
Leaving Russia, why most debit-first neobanks have struggled… lots more!
