Navigate Today

Welcome to the Curinos Review

Welcome to the Summer 2022 issue of the Curinos Review.

We may be just a few days into summer, but the heat is already on for the global financial-services industry.

This issue of the Curinos Review, titled “Navigate Today,” dives into the implications of higher interest rates as central bankers around the world try to curtail inflation. While it’s unclear if the strategy will be effective, all types of customers are starting to demand higher yields on their accounts and will be increasingly tempted to switch providers. That means institutions will have to make some important decisions in the months to come.
