German Fintech Savings Platform Raisin Expanding to the US

Raisin is one of the most successful European fintech platforms having raised more than $200 million in equity capital from several A-list VC firms; they provide a cross border savings platform available in 31 European countries and have 175,000 customers there; today, they have announced that they are expanding to the US market and have already hired a US CEO; Raisin partners with as many as 75 banks in Europe offering a “deposit as a service” product and they no doubt try to duplicate that success in the US.
