Скачать или смотреть EP6: Jim Brusstar on being early to fintech, how banks work, and founding Treasury Prime

Conversation with Jim Brusstar, co-founder of Treasury Prime, which is building APIs to connect a network of banks to fintechs. They make it easy for fintechs to partner with the right bank, and reduce the time to market for a neo bank or embedded banking product from years to months.

We cover so many interesting topics in this conversation — starting with being early at Sidecar and lessons learnt from competing with Uber and Lyft, being early to fintech with Standard Treasury which built banking APIs and sold to Silicon Valley Bank, how banks work under the covers, and why he decided to found Treasury Prime (with same mission as Standard Treasury).
