This holistic overview is a real challenge for existing systems, and Harvey blames a common foe: the immobility of data. Many technological systems, he said, advance at a surface level but are frequently building 'band-aids on top', instead of fixing the core issues. He points to custodians as providing good solutions in line with data aggregators, but suggests AI will help with trickier, bottlenecked data. ) [32] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [title] => Superannuation Success: The Educational Impact of Compulsory Saving [link] => https://www.finextra.com/videoarticle/3511/superannuation-success-the-educational-impact-of-compulsory-saving?utm_medium=rssfinextra&utm_source=finextrafeed [guid] => https://www.finextra.com/videoarticle/3511/superannuation-success-the-educational-impact-of-compulsory-saving?utm_medium=rssfinextra&utm_source=finextrafeed [pubDate] => Fri, 22 May 2026 11:00:00 GMT [description] => In this FinextraTV interview from the Communify Intelligence Experience, Geoff Lloyd, Advisory Board Member, Communify discusses the further growth of Australia’s superannuation and what other services can learn from it.

Zimmerman, speaking to forecasting and the use of AI, also explained how vital it is for SME's to get a stronger picture of their longer term finances, in order to make smarter, more informed decisions. Zimmerman suggests that many SME's need to find more sophisticated solutions and treasury processes in order to switch from a one-way road process to a scenario-based forcast. ) [37] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [title] => Rethinking fraud: Where regulation, technology and criminal behaviour are heading [link] => https://www.finextra.com/event-info/614/rethinking-fraud-where-regulation-technology-and-criminal-behaviour-are-heading?utm_medium=rssfinextra&utm_source=finextrafeed [guid] => https://www.finextra.com/event-info/614/rethinking-fraud-where-regulation-technology-and-criminal-behaviour-are-heading?utm_medium=rssfinextra&utm_source=finextrafeed [pubDate] => Tue, 09 Jun 2026 15:00:00 GMT [description] => What governance, controls, and technology investments are required to secure instant payments without compromising customer experience or economic growth?
