In the latest Shared Accounts With CU Times podcast, Amber Harsin, Vice President of Credit Unions at Mambu, joined us for a candid conversation on leadership, innovation, and the future of cooperative finance. Drawing on her experience leading a CUSO and now at a global fintech with offices in Amsterdam, Dubai, Singapore, and Romania, Harsin shared how credit unions can thrive at what she calls the “intersection of ambition and architecture.”
She urged credit union leaders to “be bold and break up with anyone you don’t trust,” underscoring the importance of partnerships rooted in transparency and impact. International case studies, from open banking growth in Brazil to initiatives supporting low-income women entrepreneurs, highlighted Mambu’s global reach and practical lessons for U.S. credit unions.
Harsin also discussed composable banking, emerging technologies like AI and open banking, and how smaller credit unions can leverage collaboration to unlock scale.
