About Nico Simko

Nico Simko is the CEO and Co-Founder of Clair, a New York-based  fintech company that is breaking the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle by  offering fee-free on-demand pay to America's workers.

Prior  to co-founding Clair, Simko led the M&A due diligence process for  J.P. Morgan’s payments division. There, he gained insight and expertise  into the lesser-known financial pain points that many Americans face —  including high-interest payday loans — which eventually led to the  conception of Clair.

Since  its founding in 2019, Clair has become accessible to millions of hourly  workers across America. The company closed a $15M Series A earlier this  year that it plans to use to continue fine-tuning its on-demand pay  product, as well as expand its suite of financial tools for America’s  workforce.

Originally from Switzerland and Argentina, Nico holds a B.A in Economics from Harvard University.
