The Human Algorithm - Why proximity still matters in European finance with Annarita Morelli
About this episode
Annarita Morelli discusses the future of European banking and the importance of proximity banking in supporting the real economy.
What does the future of European banking actually look like, in a world of perpetual crisis, heavy regulation, and consolidating institutions? Annarita Morelli, a strategy and governance executive who has worked on the front lines of Italy's financial system, joins Ricardo Silvestre on the Liberal Europe Podcast, to make the case for proximity banking, smarter resilience, and a financial sector that supports the real economy. From the reactive trap that keeps banks running on a treadmill, to the funding gap holding back small businesses, to what she calls the human algorithm of territorial banking, this is a conversation about how Europe can grow without losing the local trust that makes finance work.
