Scalable Capital appoints former Goldman Sachs banker as Country Manager for Italy

Munich, 16th March 2022 Scalable Capital, a leading fintech company in Europe, introduces Alessandro Saldutti in the role of Country Manager for Italy. Alessandro worked at the US investment bank Goldman Sachs, in their Zurich offices, managing wealth for highly affluent private clients, family offices, foundations and trusts. Born in Rome, Alessandro studied in Milan, Nice and Sao Paulo and graduated in Finance at Bocconi University. As Country Manager of Scalable Capital he will be responsible for the growth and management of the fintech company in the Italian market.

"Financial markets have always been an important instrument for wealth creation, but several barriers have meant that until now only a few could benefit from them. Scalable Capital was founded with the aim of breaking down these barriers, enabling anyone to become an investor. It is for this reason that I am so excited to embark on this new path," commented Alessandro Saldutti, Country Manager Italy Scalable Capital.

Scalable Capital uses technology to facilitate access to the world of investment. The Broker allows clients to invest autonomously in stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies and funds and to set up programmable savings plans. While wealth management, which will be available in Italy later this year, will allow people to entrust their savings to Scalable professionals who, based on the financial goals specified by clients, will invest in diversified, cost-effective ETF portfolios and, if desired, according to sustainability criteria.

"With Alessandro's appointment at the helm of Scalable Capital Italia we are continuing our mission to democratise access to financial markets and become the leading investment platform in Europe.
