This morning in Manila, we kicked off the very first Money20/20 Philippines Roadshow & Summit.

I opened the day - and moderated two book-end conversations that nicely framed where Philippine fintech is heading next.

Opening panel: Fintech Trends 2026 – The Future of Money - Big picture, on purpose.

The conversation with Lito Villanueva was fascinating and the message was clear: Innovation and scale in the Philippines is real being led by conpanies like Gcash but partnerships have never been more important.

Banks and fintechs are now co-building platform ecosystems, AI is embedded into risk and decisioning (not sitting in pilots), and regulators are increasingly acting as enablers rather than gatekeepers.

Later: Cybersecurity and Fraud in the Age of AI and Quantum with Mel Migriño 梅尔 and Moises Ycot  

This wasn’t a “future problem” discussion.

AI-driven fraud is already here. Quantum isn’t tomorrow - it’s a countdown. 

And the uncomfortable truth is that much of today’s security infrastructure won’t survive what’s coming next.

The conversation quickly shifted from fear to preparation: what organisations can start doing now to build quantum-resistant foundations and use AI defensively, not just reactively.

If the opening panel was about where fintech is going, this one was about what could stop it if we don’t prepare.

Strong signals from the Philippines today.

Pragmatic, forward-looking, and very clear-eyed about what matters next.

I’d heard about pickleball for a while. 


One of those things that seemed to be everywhere, yet somehow easy to ignore (always tomorrow).

Over the holiday break, the resort we stayed at had a court. 

I went down one morning with the kids and we ended up playing most mornings. No intention to pick up a new sport - it just found its way into the rhythm. 

Fast, accessible, and surprisingly addictive (in a good way).

When we got back, I could’ve left it there. 

Holiday habit. Nice memory. 

Instead, a few weeks later, I looked up a local pickleball court, packed my bag, and went along last night. 

New people. New sport. Me being the least experienced person (which doesn’t happen often). 

And that was the point. There was something refreshing about starting again, about not needing to be good at something straight away.

A few weeks ago I wrote about saying no more often. This was the opposite. 

Saying yes to something unfamiliar. Saying yes to being the new person.

If your routine is starting to feel like more of the same, it’s rarely about changing everything. 

Sometimes it’s just about choosing one new thing - and being okay with the reset.
