I work in finance and I am not sure if I want to applaud or feel for people starting neobanks. The amount of regulation and infrastructure needed to deal with other people’s or companies’ money is downright insane and requires tons of upfront investment.
Maybe I do not understand what “neobank” is. Is it that they concentrate on a very narrow part of banking functionality that is relatively light on regulation? Or do they try to creatively interpret the regulation, Uber-style?
