Jake Blatt: (
Good morning and welcome to day three, the American Banker digital banking conference. My name is Jake Blatt, head of sales at Even Financial. I'm honored to be opening the final day, this great event. Over the past couple of days, we've had the opportunity hear directly from leaders across the banking and FinTech ecosystems. There have been a number of thought provoking panels. I personally really enjoyed hearing from Rahul Wadhavkar in ways banks are rethinking their omnichannel engagement strategies and implementing new operating models. At even, we are always exploring new ways. Our financial partners, such as SoFi TransUnion and Marcus by Goldman Sachs can drive deeper engagement with their customers through embedded financial product marketplaces to create more inclusive and personalized financial experiences for every consumer. Today on the final day of the conference, we look forward to many more insightful discussions and conversations. I'm excited about the Verizon and MasterCard fireside chat on 5g and next generation point of interaction as well as later diving more into our core banking transformation with our morning panel. Access to financial services has long been a challenge for many hardworking Americans. We, those of us in this room and those still eating breakfast outside are at the frontier of creating better access for consumers across their financial life cycle, driving towards a more inclusive financial experience for everyone. Once again, thank you all for being here and I hope you enjoy a great last day at the conference at this time. I'd like to welcome Penny Crosman to the stage.
