Episode #32 - Shaul David, Railsbank

Railsbank was co-founded by Nigel Verdon, who also founded Currencycloud - the most famous FinTech startup that nobody has ever heard of, as its engine powers Revolut, Monzo and Starling Bank, among others. Railsbank is taking a similar trajectory in enabling any company to become a FinTech.  We talk with Shaul David, Head of Growth, and previously in a role as a FinTech Sector Specialist with the Department for International Trade (DIT) of the UK Government, where he also promoted London as a FinTech hub to Japanese financial services players. We define what the "invisibility cloak" implies, how Railsbank as an abstraction of the infrastructure layer could make market entry into Japan so much easier, and the immense opportunities that lie ahead of us, for banks and non-banks alike.  Produced in collaboration with Tokyo FinTech.
