Fold Legal head joins fintech board
The Fold Legal managing director, Claire Wivell Plater, will take up a position on the advisory board of Australian fintech, HashChing.
HashChing, an online platform for home buyers, recently surpassed $1B of home loans in Australia, a feat that chief executive Mandeep Sodhi said confirms the start-ups commitment to the local fintech scene.
Plater said she would use her legal knowledge to assist HashChing moving forward.
"I'm passionate about ensuring the law is applied the way it was intended; to protect and enhance customer experience," she said.
"We've watched HashChing grow from their standing to a billion dollars in loans in less than 12 months. We look forward to continued success."
