Temenos Is Betting that Digital Banking Needs Better Wealth Management

Hey Digital Banking Fanatic!

For years, digital banking has largely been about making everyday banking faster and simpler.

Now the competition is shifting higher up the value chain.

Temenos has completed its acquisition of Swiss FinTech additiv, bringing AI-powered wealth management technology into its banking platform. It's a move that reflects where many banks are heading next: beyond payments and current accounts, toward helping customers save, invest, and grow their wealth through the same digital experience.

As digital banking matures, offering a great app is no longer enough. The next differentiator may be how seamlessly banks can integrate banking, investing, and financial advice into a single platform.

There's much more waiting below.

As always, you'll also find How Digital Banking Performed Last Week, with the biggest launches, partnerships, funding rounds, and market developments from across the industry.
