EP16 - Samuel Rhee - Founding Partner & CIO of Endowus - Cost is what you should focus on if you invest for the long-term Frontier Fintech Podcast

Samuel Rhee is the Founding Partner & CIO of Endowus, a Singapore-based wealth platform that lets you invest towards your life goals and provides you exclusive access to best-in-class funds from around the world at low costs.

Samuel has been in finance his whole life, 27 years to be exact. He spent most of his time in the public equity market at Morgan Stanley Investment Management - starting as a portfolio manager, then as a CIO, and eventually as a CEO. He found two major gaps in Fintech, particularly in wealth management and capital markets which inspired him to co-found Endowus.
