The B2B team is responsible for collaborating with banks, fintechs, insurance providers, and online brokers across Europe to expand our customer base. Through strategic partnerships, the team enables these partners' customers to access savings and investment products from the Raisin platform, through a variety of integration models, including a full banking API.

This effort allows classical banks to offer attractive products to their customers, which they cannot provide in-house due to cost or treasury limitations. For non-banking partners, it provides their customers with first-time access to the attractive category of deposit products and their benefits, including the Deposit Guarantee Scheme.
