Wie alles begann, Im Jahr 2009, mitten in der Finanz- und Bankenkrise, erhielt die Fidor Bank AG ihre Vollbank-Lizenz. Die ursprüngliche Gründungsidee war, die sich im Netz vermehrt abzeichnenden Web-2.0-Verhaltensweisen in den Bereich der Finanzdienstleistung zu übertragen. Die Finanzkrise gab der Gründungsidee eine ungewollte aber willkommene Schärfe und Brisanz. Transparenz, Integration, Offenheit und vieles mehr waren nun nicht mehr "nur"​ Beiwerk eines neuartigen Ansatzes, sondern zwingende Notwendigkeit. Das Internet als neues Transaktionsmedium Auch wenn die Welt der Finanzen aufgrund der Krise in einer Schockstarre verharrt, geht das Leben – vor allen Dingen im Internet – weiter. Aus einem Informationsmedium wurde ein Transaktionsmedium. Die nun heranwachsenden Menschen nennen wir "digital natives"​, weil sie ein Leben ohne Internet nicht kennen. Damit einher geht die Entwicklung des sogenannten "digitalen Lebensstils"​. Dieser digitale Lebensstil bricht alte Traditionen auf und verändert ganze Industrien und Nationen nachhaltig. Als Fidor Bank haben wir Respekt vor dieser Entwicklung und sehen auch im Bereich der Finanzdienstleistungen die Notwendigkeit zur Veränderung.
