Arjun Singh
About this episode

Neobanks are emerging rapidly across the world, all of them trying to solve many challenges that are preventing a seamless and safe digital banking experience. 

From government regulation to data confidentiality, multiple issues need to be solved so we can enter a new era of fully digital banking.

That is why we invited Amir Nooriala on the couch - Chief Commercial Officer at Callsign, the global leading artificial intelligence-based authentication platform for enterprises, financial institutions and consumer-facing digital services.

Our host Arjun Singh asked him about his previous experience as CSO at OakNorth and the unique authentication system that he is implementing into the digital banking sector with Callsign.

In this great conversation with Amir find out more about:
-Callsign’s mission and vision between UX, fraud prevention and compliance
-The new era of authentication
-Government’s regulations of digital banking.
