Is the FICO score a relic of the past? ️ In this episode, Navin Shetty talks with Peter Maher, CEO of FLOTE (Ovanti), about how they are bypassing traditional credit checks to provide liquidity to millions of "debit-only" consumers. What we cover: Why the credit score is a "lagging metric" that punishes the wrong people. How FLOTE uses cash flow data to approve users in real-time. The role of Agentic AI in building a world-class risk engine with a tiny team. Navigating the "controlled chaos" of a U.S. fintech launch for an ASX-listed player. The "Affordability for Good" philosophy.
