TradeCard re-targets big banks

Kurt Cavano, CEO of TradeCard, talks about banks, cannibalization, and chipping away at age-old attitudes.

Kurt Cavano, chairman and CEO of TradeCard, looks tired รป and for good reason. He's just come from a gruelling early-morning meeting to put in motion the formation of another alliance. I've just had a Chinese breakfast at the meeting, he announces. Not what I usually start my day with, but when in Asia, do what the Asians do.
