Listen "Safeguarding at scale: building resilient payments operations"
Episode Synopsis
Payment firms are scaling fast, but many still rely on manual reconciliations and legacy systems that cannot keep up with rising regulatory expectations. In this episode, host Jack Robertson, Data Journalist at The Payments Association, speaks with AutoRek’s Nick Botha, VP Payments & Retail Banking to unpack the FCA’s strengthened safeguarding rules, the operational risks of spreadsheets and fragmented processes, and the steps firms must take to align with CASS-level standards. The discussion shows how investing in automation and robust controls not only protects customer funds but also creates a competitive edge in an increasingly crowded market.
