FinTech is Eating the World, 8 April

Hey Everyone,

Good morning! We’re starting a new FinTech week on Tuesday but it’s more than worth the wait 🫡 Today we’re looking at two FinTech giants joining forces as Nubank launches global account with Wise (why it’s a match made in heaven + deep dives into both NU & Wise and why I’m super bullish), and Klarna that launched 'Wikipink' in a bid to promote transparency and challenge traditional credit models (what it’s all about & why it makes sense + some solid deep dives into Klarna and their possible 2024 IPO). Let’s just jump straight into the interesting stuff 🌶
