We're seeing a fascinating shift: instead of competing head-on with fintechs, established FIs are leveraging API middleware to modernize their digital offerings. From open banking to credit card issuance and spend management - it's all about empowering banks to deliver the seamless digital experience customers expect. Think of it as "The Empire Strikes Back" moment for traditional finance. Watch Partner Laura Lenz explain more about why it's an area of interest for our investment team:

CEO & Founder of FOHLE Finance | Engineer turned problem-solver, on a mission to make crypto as easy as it should be
From Traditional Banks to Neobanks to Decentralized Banks 💳🌐💱 For decades, traditional banks like HSBC, Santander, and BNP Paribas were the backbone of our financial system - offering essential services but often burdened by inefficiencies, high fees, and limited accessibility. Then came neobanks like Revolut, Wise, and N26, modernizing the experience with sleek interfaces, real-time notifications, and global usability. Yet, they still operate within centralized frameworks, constrained by intermediaries. Now imagine all those services - without the middleman. Available 24/7. Cheaper. That’s decentralized banking. 🚨 Spoiler alert: at FOHLE Finance, we’re making it happen. It’s not just about replacing banks; it’s about building a financial system that’s open, inclusive, and truly borderless. Are you ready for the transition? 🚀
