Susanne Krehl Joins wealthAPI Management Team as Chief Growth Officer
wealthAPI GmbH, a leading German provider of wealth management interfaces, is appointing Susanne Krehl as Chief Growth Officer (CGO), effective September 1st, 2025. As part of the management team alongside founders André Rabenstein and Wolfram Stacklies, Krehl will focus on the growth and European expansion of the Berlin-based WealthTech company.
wealthAPI enables companies to offer their customers personalised financial products at the right time. With the upcoming implementation of the FiDA (Financial Data Access) regulation and standardised data exchange, wealthAPI, as a BaFin-regulated account information service provider, is opening up new Open Banking use cases that go far beyond just account data.
Susanne Krehl brings over fifteen years of experience in the financial technology sector and was honoured as a Woman in Banking and FinTech 2023 by the German Handelsblatt newspaper. Most recently, she founded the personal finance startup Fabit. Previously, as Managing Director of payment infrastructure provider Barzahlen / viafintech, she was responsible for their expansion. Her expertise in scaling FinTech business models will contribute to achieving wealthAPI’s ambitious growth targets and its strategic positioning in light of the FiDA regulation.
Susanne Krehl: “For me, wealthAPI offers the unique challenge of both developing new business areas and driving expansion fuelled by regulatory changes. The opportunity to join such a talented, international team and lead wealthAPI into its next growth phase is a challenge I am passionate about tackling.”
André Rabenstein, CEO wealthAPI: “We are thrilled to gain such an accomplished and well-connected FinTech personality for our company. With a great deal of creative freedom, Susanne Krehl will significantly drive wealthAPI’s growth. We have known each other for many years, and now is the right time to start a new chapter together.”
wealthAPI and Susanne Krehl are pursuing a joint mission to make transparent financial decisions and financial education more widely accessible and to democratise the use of personal financial data for consumers. These efforts are closely tied to the vision of establishing a uniform standard for the quality of wealth data.
