French fintech Finary has raised €8m in a Series A financing round to fund its strategic plan to build a modern private bank.
The funding round saw investments from existing shareholders Speedinvest & Y Combinator. They were joined by Qonto founders Alexandre Prot and Steve Anavi, and Bitpanda founder Eric Demuth as new investors.
Founded in 2020, Finary enables investors to track their investments automatically and instantly, regardless of the asset class. It also provides actionable and exclusive insights to the users.
According to Finary, its users can link to more than 10000 platforms, including integrations such as Trade Republic, Interactive Brokers, and eToro.
In the last year, the firm expanded its employee headcount to 12 and onboarded 30000 users.
The latest fundraise, which follows the Finary’s €2.2m round in May last year, comes as the firm seeks to overhaul its platform to build a modern private bank.
