Commenting on the successful closing of the funding round, Mirna Sleiman, Founder & CEO, Fintech Galaxy, said: “Fintech Galaxy is driving the development of a much richer, broader financial technology ecosystem that goes well beyond banking to include insurance, asset management, exchanges, and pensions. Our vision is to provide not only the technology infrastructure but rather enabling the whole ecosystem to access data and payment channels via a unified API gateway; and supporting financial institutions in their compliance with international and local Open Banking frameworks.

The company was founded in 2018 with the aim to reimagine the future of inclusive financial services, create stable and secure interoperability channels between financial providers and end-consumers, bringing benefits to all the involved parties.
