What we look for
Building the next generation of financial infrastructure.
Fintech Infrastructure
We back founders building mission-critical infrastructure that powers finance. From API’s to data layers to orchestration tools that banks and financial institutions can’t operate without.
Limited Regulatory Exposure
We favour software and data businesses that help financial institutions comply, operate and grow without holding licences or taking balance sheet risk themselves. The most durable fintech businesses sit one step back from regulation.
