The FinTech company and licensed bank made the move after operating in stealth mode with invited customers for two years, it said in a Monday (Sept. 15) press release.
Yuval Aloni, co-founder and CEO of the esh Group, said in the release that the financial institution aims to offer “the first fully transparent banking experience.”
“We’ve built a model designed to empower customers with clarity, efficiency and confidence in their finances,” Aloni said. “By making banking simpler and more transparent, we’re creating a foundation where both our customers and the bank can thrive together.”
Esh Bank’s offerings are powered by its eOS technology platform, an artificial intelligence-native, full-stack core banking platform that boosts operational efficiency by eliminating data silos and manual processes, according to the release.
By automating manual back-office processes, the bank has achieved efficiency that enables it to offer the revenue-sharing model while also maintaining “robust profitability,” the release said.
