Through Koenigsberg Insights, he works with financial institutions, fintechs and industry leaders on payments strategy, transaction banking, emerging financial infrastructure, and the continuing transformation of commercial banking.
His perspective combines strategic understanding of financial services with practical experience in the systems, processes, controls, and client relationships that support international payments and transaction banking.

More recently, he has focused much of his writing on institutional memory, generational knowledge transfer, and an increasingly important question for international banking: as trade and payment processes become more automated, how do banks preserve the judgment needed to manage exceptions, protect clients, meet regulatory obligations, and respond to unfamiliar risks?
Alan believes that linking commercial, community, and charitable efforts is key to financial, emotional, and societal inclusion.
