Finleap reduces its lead

According to a media report, Birte Sewing and Florian Resatsch have to leave the company builder. The reason is a new strategy.

Fintech company builder Finleap has recorded two departures. Birte Sewing is leaving the company, reports Finance Forward. Sewing had been COO since 2019 and was responsible for the two start-ups Solarisbank and the insurance provider Element, among others. Finleap CEO Ramin Niroumand now wants to personally take care of the two companies. He will also take over the chairmanship of the supervisory board from Sewing at Solarisbank. Florian Resatsch, who joined Finleap last year and is responsible for new investments, will also be leaving in the summer.

The departures of the two managers are intended to reflect the new strategy, reports Finance Forward. Accordingly, Finleap already announced at the end of last year that it would only focus on existing cooperations and not acquire any new start-ups. Following the departure of Sewing and Resatsch, the Finleap management team now only consists of CEO Niroumand, Michael Hock and Max Schoppen. The realignment has already led to a number of departures. Around 15 employees are currently still working for Finleap, writes Finance Forward.
