The company’s new ad, called  “Zero Trust with Zero Exceptions” features American-actress Gillian Anderson and reinforces the Palo Alto Networks continued innovation to bring the next generation of comprehensive Zero Trust security solutions to the enterprise.

In today’s digital world, we all deserve the right to work and live without the fear of cyber threats. I’m thrilled to be working with the company leading the charge for a more secure digital world. “

“We are at a critical juncture in cybersecurity and have an opportunity to build the right security architectures for the future. With the world working from anywhere, using applications that are hosted in multiple clouds or data centers, the cyber attack surface has expanded significantly,” said Palo Alto Networks Chairman and CEO Nikesh Arora.  “The first generation of zero trust cybersecurity solutions can’t keep up and are inconsistent. With this campaign we sought to highlight the urgency around cybersecurity and the importance of building a zero trust future with zero exceptions.”

The ad was created with Palo Alto Networks Los-Angeles based agency of record TBWAChiatDay. The agency touts its capabilities to help brands find their soul and place them in culture in unexpected ways. It’s that shared vision for disruption that made Palo Alto Networks tap them to help put cybersecurity front and center for everyone.

Banks risk losing the commercial spend relationship as finance moves beyond traditional banking

Australian fintech Inlogik appoints Charles Crane as CEO to lead its next phase of growth

SYDNEY, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The commercial banking battleground is shifting.

Increasingly, the question is not just who holds the account or processes the transaction. It is who owns the experience around commercial spend, payments, approvals, controls, data and decision-making.

As embedded finance, B2B payments, AI and workflow automation reshape commercial banking, banks need to move beyond standalone portals and products and become part of the everyday systems where businesses manage financial decisions.

Australian fintech Inlogik today announced the appointment of Charles Crane as Chief Executive Officer, with the leadership transition reflecting the company’s next phase of growth and its focus on helping banks compete in this changing market.

“The real risk for banks is not losing the payment,” Crane said. “It is losing the customer relationship around how commercial finance is managed, approved, controlled and understood.”

“Businesses increasingly expect banking to be embedded into the workflows they already use. The banks that deliver connected financial experiences, not just payment infrastructure, will be the ones that strengthen customer relationships over the next decade.”

Fintechs and software platforms are moving quickly into those workflows. Banks still own much of the underlying financial infrastructure, but others are increasingly shaping how customers experience it.

Crane said this is not just a threat for banks. It is also a major opportunity.

“Banks already have what customers value most: trust, capital, treasury expertise, regulatory capability and long-standing relationships,” he said. “The challenge is connecting those strengths into the way businesses now operate, so commercial banking becomes more connected, more intelligent and increasingly autonomous.”

For more than 30 years, Inlogik has partnered with banks, issuers, enterprises and government organisations to modernise commercial finance through commercial card management, B2B payments, expense management, workflow automation and embedded banking capabilities.

Today, the company is expanding its Spend Platform into a connected commercial finance platform that brings together payments, cards, policy controls, approvals, AI-assisted decisioning and financial insights in one ecosystem.

The aim is simple: help banks deliver fintech-quality customer experiences without replacing core banking infrastructure or compromising governance, resilience and trust.

Richard Eskell, who has led Inlogik for more than three decades, will transition to the role of Founder and Board Director.

“Commercial finance has evolved from an operational function into a strategic capability that influences customer experience, governance and financial performance,” Eskell said. “Charlie has played a significant role in shaping our long-term strategy, and I have complete confidence in his leadership as Inlogik enters its next phase of growth.”

Crane said artificial intelligence will accelerate the transformation of commercial banking, but only where it delivers practical outcomes for banks and finance teams.

“AI is not about replacing finance professionals or creating more complexity,” he said. “It is about helping organisations reduce friction, improve compliance and make better financial decisions. Over time, financial systems will move beyond automation towards trusted autonomous decisioning, with clear policy, controls and human oversight.”

Looking ahead, Crane expects commercial finance to become more embedded, connected and workflow-native.

“The question is not whether commercial finance becomes more intelligent,” he said. “It is whether banks remain at the centre of that experience as financial decision-making moves into the business systems their customers already use. The institutions that combine trusted banking infrastructure with intelligent software will define the next era of commercial banking.”

About Inlogik

Inlogik specialises in commercial spend, helping banks, businesses and finance teams, manage card programs and B2B spend with more clarity and less complexity.

Built on more than three decades of experience operating inside real banking infrastructure, Inlogik’s Spend Platform connects card solutions, expense solutions, approvals, analytics, AI-guided automation, and embedded banking experiences into one proven ecosystem.

Designed for financial institutions and the corporates they serve, Inlogik helps organisations strengthen governance, improve visibility, reduce friction, and move forward with confidence.
