Valley Bank and Bluevine executives have opened up about how they plan to integrate the fintech following their deal. Valley COO Russ Barrett said bank mergers and acquisitions follow 'a rhythm and a routine that's very well known,' but the Bluevine deal carries 'unique dimensions that are very different than a bank acquisition,' pointing to the challenges of folding a digital lending platform into a traditional bank.

Why now: The interview offers rare detail on how a traditional bank plans to absorb a fintech, a live issue in banking M&A.
