869. Insights: How Wio Bank made a profit in just one year with CEO Jayesh Patel

Fintech Insider Podcast by 11:FS

On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, host Benjamin Ensor is joined by Wio Bank CEO Jayesh Patel.

Profitability is what every fintech strives for, but it took Starling Bank and Revolut over seven years to achieve it, and Monzo has just announced its first annual profit in their 2024 annual report. So how did a digital bank based in the UAE achieve profitability after just one year?

We wanted to get to the bottom of this massive achievement, so we invited Wio Bank CEO Jayesh Patel onto the show to answer all our questions.

This week's guest:

Jayesh Patel - CEO of Wio Bank
