Barend Leyts, woordvoerder premier Charles Michel: "Open blik op de wereld" - Maarten leyts


Wij, West-Vlamingen, niet verstaanbaar? Grapjes dat we de 'g' en de 'h' niet uit elkaar kunnen houden? Opmerkingen dat we onze woorden inslikken? Goedkope kritiek lijkt ons, want toppolitici en -bedrijven smeken om West-Vlaamse woordvoerders. En dat is niet toevallig, zeggen ze. 

Barend Leyts is mogelijk de belangrijkste woordvoerder van het land. Immers, de gewezen journalist is de Nederlandstalige spreekbuis van premier Charles Michel, die zelf aandrong op de komst van de Pannenaar. "West-Vlamingen kijken met een open blik naar de wereld, gebruiken hun gezond verstand en staan met beide voeten op de grond. Dit zijn belangrijke troeven voor een woordvoerder", zegt Barend Leyts. "West-Vlaams is trouwens een goede basis om je standaardtaal te verbeteren. Dat weet ik als germanist. Het is een zeer homogeen dialect: je kan het spreken van De Panne tot Knokke-Heist, van Roeselare tot Kortrijk. Dat zorgt voor een sterk gemeenschapsgevoel.

Finance Trend: The value of social value creation | Maarten Leyts

Fintech is about more than convenience. The sector has the opportunity to create social value, and that’s exactly what resonates with Millennials. Fintech is about more than convenience Aaah, Fintech. Making our Western-daily-lives even more easy and more efficient. We don’t need to go to our bank branch around to corner to pay our bills, and why bother leaving your house for some shopping when everything can be ordered and paid for online? Thank God, we’ve got Fintech. But Fintech is about much more than convenience and first world problems . The Indian government has used Fintech on a massive scale to make financial services available for the previously unbanked. Platforms and technology such as Aadhaar (digital identification), Jan Dhan Yojana (payment banks which hold money but don’t do lending) and India Stack (store and share personal data online) allow citizens to open bank accounts, transfer money instantly and lend wisely.

Millennials - Trust - Finance - Blockchain - Maarten Leyts

Blockchain is claimed to be the transparent system that will gain back Millennials’ trust in finance. Blockchain is the means to an end, gaining trust has everything to do with giving back control to the consumer. Do banks dare?   Blockchain is most known as the technology underlying Bitcoin. What makes it special is that it uses a public and fully distributed network of nodes and users to move any digitalized asset from peer to peer, that anyone can access the ledger and see the transactions which are validated without any intermediary. The transparency of the process even extends to the name itself: transactions are recorded in blocks which are cryptographically secured and sequentially chained together from the oldest to the newest, offering a non-refutable and unbreakable record of data . Big banks are now seeing its massive potential to make the existing financial system more efficient , and find cost savings in a landscape that is coming under increasing
