In episode 121 of Fintech Chatter Podcast, Dexter Cousins chats to Dan Silver, COO and co-founder of Stake, a global gateway to investing and its culture. 

Stake was launched in July 2017 by Matt Leibowitz and Dan Silver with the ambition to open up Wall St to the world.

Since launching, Stake has amassed over 450,000 customers across Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Brazil by spearheading commission-free brokerage.

Stake now offers investors access to over 8,000 stocks across the US and ASX markets through a sophisticated and seamless platform.

Stake has grown to 135 staff and is booking $20 million in revenue a year. Stake recently completed its $90 million Series A funding from Tiger Global and DST Global Partners.

Dexter chats to Dan about his experience of giving up a corporate career and launching his own business. Dan shares his lessons on scaling, leadership, resilience, global expansion, bootstrapping and capital raising.
