Welcome to another episode of SOURCE CODE.
At Finovate, a leading Fintech conference “where you see the future of fintech first”, startups demo their solutions in seven minutes. This series is everything else - the human story behind the innovation. In every great story, there’s a hero on a quest and a guide who’s walked the path before. In b2b fintech, the customer is the hero. Today’s founder? They’re the guide.
We’re going back to the origin - before the demo, before the product - to understand the journey that led here.
This story is about Alex Frankl, founder of Fintrac, a model platform for financial services. The interview was recorded at Finovate Europe 2026.
Alex embodies The Defender archetype - standing guard over what’s most vulnerable in regulated finance: governance, auditability, and compliance. While others optimize for speed and flexibility, he remains resolute in defending the principles that protect financial institutions from risk. Like all great defenders, he’s driven not by glory but by a deep commitment to ensuring nothing sacred is lost in the pursuit of innovation.
