Moving money around today can be a frustrating experience. Whether it is remittances from Europe to Asia or simply splitting the rent with a friend in New York, the banking system has in many ways failed to keep pace with the way people increasingly live their lives—on-the-go, always on, and accustomed to simplicity. Taavet Hinrikus (Transferwise) and Leo Mirani (The Economist) discuss how this is going to change, where opportunity lies, and what lessons can be learned from today's successes.
