Anand Sambasivan, CEO of PrimaryBid on Boosting Retail Investor Access To Capital Markets

In this episode of the Innovators’ Exchange, Hiten Patel, global head of Financial Infrastructure, Technology, and Services at Oliver Wyman interviews Anand Sambasivan, CEO and co-founder of PrimaryBid. They discuss PrimaryBid’s mission to deliver fairness and inclusion to capital markets, particularly public markets. Anand uses an analogy of a grocery store to explain how the public markets are not fully democratized, with certain opportunities only available to institutional investors and the ultra-wealthy. PrimaryBid aims to change this by providing access to retail investors and individuals. Anand also talks about the importance of authenticity and perseverance in delivering change and making an impact, and underscores the importance of never giving up when pursuing an idea.
