Aris Allegos, Moula

By Dexter Cousins on 01/10/2020

In episode 46 Dexter Cousins chats Fintech with Aris Allegos , CEO and co-founder of Moula.

Aris is driven by the desire to provide Australian SMEs with a better way to access finance. Growing up around a family business, he experienced first-hand the challenges faced by SMEs. Before Moula, Aris spent over 15 years working in banking in London and Hong Kong, including roles with Credit Suisse and Nomura.

Moula is one of Australia's most successful Fintech and part of the Governments SME lending scheme. An initiative between banks, government and Fintech to provide business loans to companies impacted by Covid.

Aris talks about the fast maturing Fintech sector in Australia, collaboration with govt and big banks and how Moula continues to innovate. It turns out you have to work really hard to keep innovating and it isn't something that happens just because you are small and agile.
