FinTelegram exposed the secretive Austrian billionaire who controls the UK FinTech unicorn Starling Bank. In June 2015, the reclusive Austrian investor Harald McPike met its founder, Anne Boden, aboard his yacht in the Bahamas to discuss his investment in the then freshly squeezed neobank. McPike allegedly made his first fortune as a professional blackjack player. The former hedge fund manager reportedly invested at least £133m in Starling Bank for nearly two-thirds of the shares and is the controlling person and beneficial owner of Starling Bank says the UK Companies House.
The UK fintech unicorn Starling Bank had a great 2021. In a blog post, the company's CEO Anne Boden shared the bank's milestones. The bank finished last year with more than 2.7 million accounts, including 475,000 business accounts for small and medium-sized enterprises. Starling Bank's UK SME market share now tops seven percent, almost half of Barclays’ share.
The Mark Zuckerberg company Meta is the operator of the two most prominent social media platforms, Facebook and Instagram. It is well-known that Facebook is a fake news platform and happily promotes scams. Facebook puts itself at the service of cybercriminals if they pay! It's all about money. Recently, scammers promoted the fraudulent Meta Token ICO via Facebook ads. Now the Starling Bank boss Anne Boden boycotts the Meta prostitution. Respect!
