Jevgenijs Kazanins - Wise is the modern Citi
I spoke with Jevgenijs Kazanins about Wise plc, exploring his thesis that Wise has built the modern version of Citi: a global platform capable of serving customers locally, through a single sign-up, no matter where they are in the world. Actually, we spent a long time discussing my concerns about the company before I finally grasped what he was saying!
Jev's Substack PopularFintech is a great place to stay abreast of what's happening in Fintech, particularly the convergence of payments companies into software and vice versa. I highly recommend it because the breadth of his coverage allows him to see the wood for the trees.
Jev also posts regularly on X @jevgenijs.
