What’s Next: Co-Founded by CEO Matthew Watson, Origin is mending the knowledge gap between finance professionals and novices.

“Most people are simply priced out of financial planning tools, and financial advisors traditionally only work with high-income individuals,” Watson explained. “This leaves tens of millions of Americans in the dark, left with unnecessary fees as well as missed investment and tax opportunities that can cost them thousands of dollars a year.”

With Finny, Origin will become a complete toolkit for more thoughtful financial planning.

"Origin's commitment to simplifying money management for employees aligns with Finny's mission to improve global financial literacy," said Chihee Kim, co-founder of Finny.

"Together, we share a common goal of helping individuals achieve a secure financial future, and we're excited to join forces to further expand our reach and impact," Kovacevic added.
