Michael Hsu, CEO and acting comptroller of the currency for the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), recently reiterated his agency's commitment to mitigating any perceived risks in banking — especially those triggered by collaborations with FinTechs. Speaking last week at Vanderbilt University, Hsu said he sees a "blurring of the line between banking and commerce," which for him brings to mind the events of 1929 and 2008 when similar "blurring" preceded market crashes.

Inflation is a rise in prices of goods and services in an economy over a period of time. It can be caused by various factors such as increases in the cost of raw materials, labor, or transportation. Inflation can also be caused by monetary policy, such as when the central bank prints more money. When prices increase, people's real incomes usually decrease because they are able to buy less with the same amount of money. This can lead to problems such as unemployment and stagflation.

"It's something we're going have to really grapple with, because I think the trend in banking, especially on payments, is more and more of this chopping up, if you will, of the different activities," Acting Comptroller of the Currency Michael Hsu told Banking Dive during an interview at the Money20/20 conference Monday.
