Many exceptional senior professionals are ready for a board seat but unsure how to get there. The CISI Chartered designation signals the integrity and governance standards every board expects. FINTECH Circle’s Flagship Board Programme adds what is missing: the world’s first fintech-specific board curriculum. It includes Pop-Up Boards where members observe and role-play live board sessions with Fintech CEOs, in depth seminars on new technologies such as artificial intelligence and agentic AI governance applied to financial services and direct introductions to leading executive search firms and fintech companies.

Together, we give CISI’s Chartered Members and Fellows a credible, practical route into non-executive, chair and portfolio careers to further empower the growth of the booming fintech sector globally, Our CEO Susanne Chishti is delighted to be working with Tracy Vegro, OBE, CEO of The CISI

FINTECH Circle’s Chair and Founder, Susanne Chishti, has been named to Computer Weekly’s Most Influential Women in UK Tech 2026 Longlist.

The timing matters. On 31 March 2026, Susanne launched the FINTECH Circle Board Programme - billed as the world’s first fintech-specific board programme - to prepare senior leaders for chair, NED and board advisor roles across the sector. Her recognition and the Programme point to the same goal: more experienced women in the rooms where fintech governance decisions get made.

FINTECH Circle’s global community now spans 260,000+ senior fintech professionals. If you’re ready to move into a board-level role, the next cohort of the Board Programme is open.

After 20+ years in financial services, many senior bankers start asking the same question:

“What comes after my executive career?”

One of the fastest growing opportunities today is serving as a Non-Executive Director, Advisor or Fractional CXO in fintech companies.

Fintech boards are actively looking for experienced professionals with backgrounds in:

• banking
• risk & compliance
• payments
• capital markets
• asset management
• insurance

However, most senior executives underestimate:

• the regulatory exposure
• how fintech boards actually operate
• how board roles are sourced

On 27th March, we are hosting a FINTECH Circle Board Webinar where we will discuss how senior finance professionals can transition into paid fintech board roles.

If you are considering a portfolio career, this session may be useful.

Going overground: London’s next Fintech Leap” was the title of our Panel at SXSW London showcasing outstanding fintech leaders whose hard work, creativity & passion and ability to execute has created globally successful fintech companies. Our CEO moderated the panel with:

* Mark Lenhard CEO Zepz
* Peter Briffett CEO & Co-Founder Wagestream
* Harriet Rees Rees, CIO Starling Bank
* Sean Hederman CTO Zilch

We learned more about new technologies (including AI & cybersecurity), new product launches in 2025 and the strong purpose of each company:

* Zepz, a global leader in remittance payments, whose WorldRemit and Sendwave brands send money to 130 countries across 5,000 corridors
* Wagestream, helping employees manage their finances by allowing them to access their wages in real-time before payday
* Starling Bank, Britain’s first digital bank for personal and business accounts and their Engine platform which can be licensed by international banks
* Zilch offering a credit card and flexible payment options to split purchases into installments or pay immediately with a chance to earn rewards

We also discussed how the UK can continue to be a leading fintech nation and the power of our strong and diverse fintech ecosystem which we represented ourselves on stage with Mark coming from the USA, Sean from South Africa and I from Austria. So diversity of thought is key combined with the capital to successfully grow companies globally.

SXSW is an annual conference and festivals that celebrate the convergence of music, film, interactive media, and tech. The event, which started in Austin, Texas in 1987, has grown to become a global cultural movement. SXSW London campus stretched across 25+ venues in Shoreditch and was lots of inspiration!
