Rewiring fintech infrastructure — operator-led, globally scaled
Couchonomics with Arjun is once again beaming in from Japan. This time, we're joined by Logan Allin, Founder & Managing Partner at Fin Capital. 
Logan’s journey from SoFi Ventures to building Fin Capital is rooted in one big idea — fintech doesn’t need more flashy consumer apps, it needs better infrastructure.
We unpack:
 💼 Why Fin Capital backs B2B fintech for banks, insurers, and asset managers
 🌍 Fin Capital’s expansion into Asia — why now might be the best time to bring your fintech to Tokyo
 💸 Why banks are spending billions on outdated IT systems — and the urgent need for smarter, cloud-based solutions
 🧩 The challenge of replacing core banking systems without relying on middleware Band-Aids
