1 " The thing that all these businesses [Amazon, Facebook and Google] have in common is they are disruptors. The foundations of their businesses are not unique. They have identified a problem that a large number of people were experiencing with an existing business or service and then found a way to make it more accessible / fast / cheap / efficient. If they pitch it right, in a short space of time, the disruptors become successful enough to replace, or at least displace, the conventional product or service in the sector they've made their own. "

Then, to make matters even more confusing, another colleague chimed in, blaming ‘Central Bank rules’. When I looked into it, though, what I found was astonishing. Most of these ‘rules’ didn’t actually exist. A lot of what my colleagues believed true was mere folklore, no doubt passed down from generation to generation of bankers. "
