If N26 is any indication, challenger banks could supplant their more traditional incumbents in the banking sector. Recent numbers released by N26 show the company already has 3.5 million subscribers spread across 24 markets in Europe. Yet, it\u2019s the company\u2019s transaction volume that has everyone excited.

Self-driving cars could be coming to Europe by 2021. But the advancement in this technology isn\u2019t being driven by any car manufacturer. Chinese tech giant Huawei is developing AI technology to power self-driving cars for the region in as little as two years. QZ reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Chinese telecoms giant is looking to ship a self-driving car using its own AI technology in 2021 or 2022, Huawei\u2019s chief strategy architect Dang Wenshuan told the Financial Times<\/a> (paywall) June 12. Huawei is providing its AI infrastructure to several high-profile carmakers, including Audi, the Japanese-Chinese joint venture GAC Toyota Motor, and China\u2019s state-owned carmakers, Beijing New Energy Automobile and Changan Automobile.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately for Huawei, it is still in the midst of harsh regulatory controls<\/a> put in place by the United States government, which include a ban on the company\u2019s equipment from US networks and increased tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Apple\u2019s announcement of a credit card<\/a> many people were skeptical. But it appears that the folks over at Goldman Sachs are quite excited at the idea, especially after taking the technology for a test drive. The no-fee card which is designed to be linked to the iPhone has an advocate in Goldman Sachs CEO David Solommon. As reported by CNBC<\/a>, Solomon raved about the card:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Apple<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s in beta right now; there are some employees at Goldman Sachs and some employees of Apple that are using the card,\u201d Solomon said. \u201cI\u2019m using the card, I like the way it works. I like the simplicity, the lack of friction when it comes to paying bills, looking at what you\u2019ve spent, ease of use.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Apple Card is just the beginning of what looks to be a trend of tech firms laying the groundwork for more financial services. In fact, it\u2019s estimated that tech giants like Apple, Amazon, and Google could garner up to 40% of the $1.35 trillion financial services market<\/a> in the US alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
