In this episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker welcomes back Mario Cibelli of Marathon Partners for his fifth appearance. This time, they revisit Remitly (RELY), a name Mario originally pitched a year ago on podcast #266. The stock has seen ups and downs since, prompting a fresh look at its fundamentals, growth trajectory, and competitive standing—especially against players like Wise. The duo explores key risks including stablecoin disruption, regulatory dynamics, fraud prevention, and recent product launches like Remitly One and Remitly Business. Mario also explains why he believes the market misunderstands Remitly’s valuation and long-term potential.
