About this Gig

Choosing the wrong BaaS partner or core provider can cost you 12 months and hundreds of thousands in sunk costs.

Securing vendor contracts, safeguarding accounts, and regulatory approvals requires speaking the language that banks and supervisors expect.

As a former Bank Managing Director, I have negotiated core banking agreements, managed multi-branch banking operations, and represented an institution directly before the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Greece.

How I support your venture:

BaaS & Core Banking Selection: Unbiased analysis of providers (e.g., Mambu, Thought Machine, modular BaaS players).
Safeguarding Strategy: Structuring your operational workflows to meet Tier-1 bank risk assessments for opening operational and client-fund accounts.
Payment Rail Alternatives: Evaluating SWIFT, SEPA access, and next-gen stablecoin/blockchain settlement mechanisms against traditional correspondent banking costs.
