#422: Shmulik Fishman of Argyle
The most important type of financial data in our lives is our income data. This one factor can determine whether we get approved for a loan or to rent an apartment. And yet the majority of people today do not have a traditional salary providing 100% of their income. They often have disparate sources of income that until now has made it very difficult for financial institutions to process.
My next guest on the Fintech One-on-One podcast is Shmulik Fishman, the CEO and Co-Founder of Argyle. Argyle is all about solving this problem by working with a huge number of sources to provide a complete and accurate picture of income. This process is embedded into a loan or rental application to help make more informed decisions.
