Welcome back to This Week in Fintech and another episode of Fintech OGs. Season four kicks off with a look at how behavioral economics shows up in real fintech product decisions, and the gap between how fast money moves and how well users actually understand it.
This episode features Angela Hung and Dan Egan, two builders and researchers whose careers span policy research, Robinhood, Earnin, and Betterment. Together, they have helped shape how modern wealth and financial tools are designed and experienced.
The conversation takes a deep dive into how behavioral economics collides with real fintech product decisions, from robo-advisors to earned wage access. We explore why AI will reshape finance unevenly, making some experiences smarter behind the scenes while forcing hard lines around trust, accuracy, and user control.Â
