Cooperation instead of competition: the Fintech cooperations of the DZ BANK Group

Working with other companies is a daily business for banks. This is also confirmed by the overview of Cooperations between Banks and FinTechs in the specialist blog Payment and Banking.   Incidentally, co-operation only rarely involves participation, as in the case of Architrave ( which owns Union Investment ), Trustbills ( which owns DZ BANK ) or paydirekt (DZ BANK is involved in the cooperative financial group). Incidentally, with VisualVest (also involved the Union Investment) is also a self-founded fintech among the partners.   In addition to the entrepreneurial cooperation, we are also very interested in the early contacts with startups via the Frankfurt Fintech Hub TechQuartier, the Leipzig Accelerator HHL Spinlab and the German Tech Entrepreneur Center (GTEC).
