Mr. Sam Tanskul  MD at Krungsri Finnovate, made an interesting comment about what the future of Thailand's finances will look like in 2030?
.
Even in an era where the economy may not be good enough, We have to admit that Thailand's financial technology is developing as fast as anywhere. In the next 10 years, 4 things of financial technology will help reduce more space in the global economy.
.
1. #PaymentTechnology 💳
Now we shifted the payment methods from cash to credit cards, debit cards, smartphones, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Android Pay, smartwatches, and QR payments, especially during COVID-19. And in around the next 10 years, technology may evolve to make it easier for all of us to pay by using our face, eyesight, or fingerprint to veins. In addition, the #BuyNowPayLater product itself will be more popular.
.
2. #LendingTechnology 💸
Typically, Lending takes a minimum of 30 minutes, but in the future, startups will use AI to efficiently collect credit and credit data and approve loans in as little as 3 minutes.
.
3. #RemittanceTechnology 🌍
International sum transfers usually take 1-2 days with exorbitant fees. But now, Block Chain technology is breaking down this barrier by allowing international and money transfers to happen in fractions of a second.
.
4. #WealthTechnology 🤖
AI or Robo-advisors are now being introduced to help trade stocks, fund, and provide financial advice. For example, #Finnomena helps assess investments in funds. In the coming years, AI will take care of the portfolio of new assets such as "Crypto." This will enable everyone to invest appropriately and get the most out of it.
.
The financial technology trends Mr. Sam Tanskul  has told It's something to watch out for, and of course, these things will come true very soon, so we need to learn and understand them to take advantage of these technologies before anyone else. 👍🏻
thanks for the excellent information and pictures from GM magazine
