True disruption stems from bravery; and what’s braver than a strategy of radical transparency in an industry where the finer details are often kept far from the public eye? When disruptor bank, Monzo, managed to crowdfund over £20m, the industry was abuzz with news about the new kid on the block, which could potentially take on some of the UK’s biggest banks.
