“Nick, Ricky and the Prosper team are already making huge waves in the finance industry and we look forward to seeing how they continue to redefine how wealth management services are delivered in 2025.”

Prosper’s platform, currently managing over £200m ($247m) in assets, aims to redefine wealth management by unifying technology with expert advice.

The fresh investment for Prosper follows its initial angel funding round that attracted an array of investors, such as founders of Monzo, Capital One, and Tandem. This round also drew institutional angel investors such as Andreessen Horowitz, Connect Ventures, MMC Ventures, and Portfolio Ventures.

Prosper chairman and co-founder Ricky Knox said: “We are thrilled to close our latest investment round and have the likes of Fuel Ventures join us on this journey to reshape wealth management.

“Their belief in our mission to revolutionise wealth management in favour of the customer is critical at this stage of our growth.”
