We Are Crowdfunding!

Yes but isn’t it potentially a lot of work, without a unified standard. Maintenance for each bank rather than all the large banks running similarly here

It’s a good idea, will this be offered by Emma applying for a banking license or by Emma partnering on a per-country / per-currency basis? For example OakNorth or OSB in the U.K. for a partnership and Soceiété Générale across the EUR zone, Swedbank for Sweden, Denmark…, Norway… etc

I have no doubt Yolt sucks in the U.K., but I mean in the continental European market where ING Groep are very established and have deep pockets and good relationships at least to shill it to their nearly 40m customers as of Feb 2021

Here I think where we do better is that we can move much faster to plug market gaps when the arise. If there is a feature that European users wanted, we could build it much faster - just like we have with Emma in the countries we currently operate in

Yolt is owned and operated by a bank which means things tend to move more slowly and decisions need to go through levels of approval

@edoardomoreni I absolutely love this. All the best and you know I have registered, should be a given by now.

Thanks Vivian, still dreaming about virgin money. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

:fire: :fire: :fire: :eyes:

That’s a good answer, presumably Emma builds on cloud systems? Means rolling out a micro service can be done without screwing any other service

Paired with that, I’m guessing in your offices you’re right next to Mr Founder/Co Founder? That cuts out a lot of needless blocking

Also @edoardomoreni feel free to drop me a message if you ever want interns or graduates :wave::sweat_smile:

Edit: well in the next year anyways I’m about to finish my penultimate year

Exactly. A small team has big perks. When we were in the office he was in the seat next to me so safe to say it was very easy to get stuff done :joy:

Is this when the priority access starts or when it goes live to general public?
Also, is this when the investment deck becomes available or will it be available earlier?

Date to be decided! :slight_smile:

The deck will be available on the day and you’ll have plenty of time.

We are releasing our product roadmap next week. :rocket:

I notice this mentions Emma ‘plus’ and ‘ultimate’ :eyes:. I wonder when we will hear about these - and what they mean for us current pro users?! Would be good to know the direction things are headed before the crowdfunding round
