Which authentication method are people most comfortable with? Biometrics. According to the Fourthline 2026 Fraud and Authentication Report, 34% of people use biometric authentication and 28% say it is the method they prefer. Biometric authentication includes fingerprint, facial recognition and iris scanning. When it comes to use and preference, they nearly match. #Biometrics #Authentication #KYC #Fintech #Compliance

European consumers trust banks more than any other institution. 73% trust their bank to handle their money securely. 60% trust it to act in their best interest. Clear communication keeps that trust strong. 69% say their bank communicates clearly about how it protects their account. When security steps change, 62% want to know why.

By now, we all know we can ship more features, faster than ever. But are we building what matters? I spoke with Matt LeMay about his book Impact-First Product Teams. We got into feature factories, the pressure to “ship faster” with AI, and how leaders can help teams focus on customer and business impact. His point on incentives stayed with me: if we reward output, we get output. We need to reward impact as much. Read the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/eRfvnjCj

Few people have thought harder about what it takes to connect what product teams ship to what businesses truly need than Matt LeMay, the product leader, consultant, and author behind the book, 'Impact-First Product Teams'. With a career that spans acquisitions by Google and Intuit, and strategic advisory work with organisations including Spotify he's got a rare, reality-tested vantage point on why so many product teams stay stuck in process theatre rather than driving meaningful outcomes. In this Big Interview, Ralph Post, CTO of Fourthline, discusses with LeMay what it takes to move a product organisation from a feature factory to a force at the business table. Together, they explore the questions that product leaders at every level should be asking right now. Read the Big Interview here: https://lnkd.in/egAFu4tQ

The second annual Fourthline Fraud & Authentication Report is here. 🚀 We surveyed 6,000 adults across six European markets, and the findings are clear: 78% of consumers would accept a slower, more thorough verification process if it meaningfully reduced their fraud risk. That holds across every country we surveyed — from 72% in the UK to 80% in the Netherlands — and across every age group. Friction isn't the problem. Unexplained friction is. Consumers are asking for verification that is meaningful, transparent and proportionate — not just fast. For banks and fintechs, that distinction matters more than ever. The full report is out now.
