Miguel Armaza interviews Michael Tannenbaum, CEO of Figure, one of the largest US fintech platforms building infrastructure and embedded products. Founded in 2018 by Mike Cagney, also the founder of SoFi and past guest of the show, Figure is now the largest non-bank originator of Home Equity Lines of Credit in the US having done $11 billion in AAA securitizations.

Every time I talk to Michael I’m impressed by his clarity of thought and his skill in sharing valuable insights. He was previously COO of Brex and you can check out our 2023 Fintech Leaders episode for an in-depth conversation about his time there.
We discuss:

  • Bringing fresh energy and founder mode, even as a non-founder CEO
  • The importance of organizational design and aligned priorities for a company’s success
  • How Blockchain helps Figure provide “Truth over Trust” to reduce transaction and origination costs
  • Why standardization is crucial to enable embedded finance services at scale… and a lot more!
