More on Fintech
What We Believe
Fintech companies are innovating across broad categories—in banking, lending, insurance, real estate, and investing—both on the customer-facing side and in core infrastructure. We believe the combination of mobile, digital money, AI and machine learning, and new data sources offers startups a unique opportunity to leapfrog outdated infrastructure and compete with incumbent financial institutions to reimagine the way money moves.
