United Fintech has appointed three new partners and established a senior leadership team, putting in place a partnership model as the company enters its next phase of growth.
The company welcomes Guy Hopkins, Rasmus Bagger, and Darren Coote, as new partners.
Each partner has played a role in building United Fintech’s first chapter.
Hopkins, founder and CEO of FairXchange, has been instrumental in shaping United Fintech’s AI-first product strategy. He will now join the firm’s senior leadership team as chief product officer
Bagger built the company’s global commercial organisation and helped to transform individual product sales efforts into a unified platform approach serving institutions globally. He now joins the leadership team as chief commercial officer.
Coote, CEO of CobaltFX, has helped to strengthen United Fintech’s position within capital markets infrastructure.
Christian Frahm, founder and CEO at United Fintech, says: “Together, we proved that financial institutions are willing to build and share technology through a neutral platform.
“This partnership recognises the people who built this with me and gives them the opportunity to help build what comes next. Infrastructure is a long-term business.
“The people who build it should have the opportunity to own it for the long term. We built United Fintech 1.0 together. Now we are building the infrastructure layer for the future of wholesale finance.”
More than 250 financial institutions use United Fintech technology. Barclays, BNP Paribas, Citi, Danske Bank, and Standard Chartered, five wholesale banks representing five regions globally, are shareholders in the company, alongside growth investor Danske Growth Capital.
