About this listen
In this special episode of Humans of Fintech, recorded live at the Fintech Is Femme Leadership Summit 2025, host Nicole Casperson sits down with Angel Rich, Founder and CEO of CreditRich, for a powerful conversation on purpose-driven leadership, strategic disruption, and building a billion-dollar impact in fintech.
Dubbed “the next Steve Jobs” by Forbes and honored with a Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award, Angel is behind the first Black woman-owned neobank and has led CreditRich to groundbreaking partnerships with Experian, Visa, and Equifax. But her path hasn’t been easy. From raising just $200K while competitors raised millions to leveraging what she calls the “Trojan Horse Strategy,” Angel shares how being underestimated became her greatest advantage.
In this fireside chat, Angel opens up about leaving corporate America, designing tools for financial inclusion, and leading CreditRich during a time of deep economic inequality. She also dives into what it means to build a legacy as an underestimated founder and what’s next in her mission to shift power in finance.
If you’re building with purpose, navigating resistance, or looking for real talk on disrupting from the inside out, this episode is for you.
