PODCAST: The pros and cons of financial fragmentation

Lee Wetherington’s job is to connect dots, forecast the future, and shape Jack Henry’s strategy. The senior director of corporate strategy brings that insight to the Jack Henry-sponsored episode of the CUNA News Podcast.

Wetherington tells CUNA Digital Media Design Specialist Yeekeng Yang that credit unions have never faced more competition, as the average American consumer uses between 15 and 20 different financial service providers and apps.

With that as a backdrop, Wetherington discusses the effect of payment apps on credit unions, the pros and cons of financial fragmentation, and what credit unions can do to promote financial health in a fragmented environment.

You can listen to the CUNA News Podcast in Apple’s iTunes Store, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and Stitcher Radio.
