Finanz makes investing simple through a personalized, five-minute daily guided journey. What started as a classroom initiative to make finance easy to understand has now evolved into a user-friendly investing app.

With over €10 trillion sitting idle in bank accounts and 335 million Europeans avoiding investments due to limited financial literacy, Finanz aims to close this gap empowering people to save and invest confidently through technology and education.

We started by bringing financial education into Italian schools, organising over 100 assemblies for students and teachers. Today, we want to directly address a problem that affects millions of Europeans, not just the younger generations, by helping everyone learn how to save and invest, one step at a time, says Lorenzo Perotta, CEO of Finanz.

Founded in November 2024 by Lorenzo Perotta (CEO), Andrea Pasini (CTO), Matteo Spreafico (COO), and Matteo Longoni (CMO), Finanz is powered by a young team with an average age of 23. The company plans to expand its team across tech, product, and design as it builds a leading European platform for financial education and management.

The fresh funding will drive growth in Italy, push the platform beyond 100,000 users, and accelerate product innovation.
