Fireside Chat with Starling Bank and Revolut on Digital-only Banks at the Hong Kong FinTech Week

During its initial introduction to the market, digital-only banks received a warm reception. However, reports are now indicating that more consumers are moving towards digital channels of incumbent players. Are digital-only banks here to stay or have we drank the kool-aid? If so, how do these business models remain relevant?
Recap on the fireside chat with Chad West, CMO of Revolut and Megan Caywood, Co-Founder & Chief Platform Officer of Starling Bank, moderated by James Lloyd, APAC FinTech Leader and Partner of EY

Starling loans at 11.5% interest yet if you open a bank account with them ur interest earned less than 0.5% speaking of theft.

Poor Starling

[@vongodric]

Starling is absolutely amazing. Been using it for over a year in US, Canada and EU. And this guys is WRONG. I chose Starling BECAUSE it is a proper bank and I have sense of security and know my money is protected even if Starling goes bust.

Revolut does have a banking license as well if that's what you mean
