Kea Neobanking Group Heads to Consensus 2026 To Bridge the East-West Gap With Its “Human-Touch” Banking Model

Kea, a neobanking group, has announced a strategic expansion into the Asian market, debuting at Consensus 2026. The company aims to address the $2.5 trillion trade finance gap affecting SMEs in the region, which often face exclusion from traditional banking due to rigid, AI-only compliance systems. Kea’s “human-touch” model emphasizes Human Intelligence (HI) to review complex cases, reduce onboarding times to days instead of months, and facilitate seamless cross-border trade through multi-currency IBANs and stablecoin liquidity. CEO Mark Berkovich stated that the gap stems from an “empathy failure” in traditional and digital banking. Kea will showcase its hybrid banking solution at Consensus 2026.
