Finch Helps Millennials Turn Their Checking Account Into An Investment Vehicle

Millennials are jumping into the stock market in greater numbers. However, there’s still a sizable segment of Millennials who are afraid of or do not understand investing, therefore they keep their money out of the market. The missed monetary gains of these uninvolved Millennials could mean the difference between retiring or not retiring at all. Instead, this fearful segment of the Millennial generation keep their money safe in a checking account.

He and his team created Finch. Finch is a consumer fintech company providing financial accounts to invest your checking account balance on your behalf. The startup is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
