The financial orthodoxy is predicated on the inequalities created by what is essentially neocolonial, Western-centric thinking. Simply based on geography, people and organisations are designated as ‘low-risk’ (typically this means ‘from somewhere similar and/or deferential to the U.S.’) or ‘high-risk’ (the opposite).
What’s the story behind the founding of the company?
Tintra PLC, in its current guise, was founded in 2021 by our CEO Richard Shearer. Prior to focusing solely on Tintra PLC, Richard advised sovereign funds, high-profile businesses, ruling families, and governments across the emerging world. He has extensive experience and understanding of these emerging markets and the cultures and societies that underpin them. Today, we already have 40 personnel working on the various aspects of our global banking infrastructure and Web3 tech. Our team are world-leading specialists in their respective fields, from AI scientists like myself, to geopolitical experts including Dr Vanessa Neumann and Dr Andrew Bowen.

What can we hope to see from Tintra in the future?
Our overarching goal is to create banking for emerging markets that drives fiscal inclusion and a prejudice-free trade payments system, by eliminating inherent human biases. And we’re rapidly advancing on every front. Regulatorily, our global banking licence strategy is well underway, and we have recently filed patents in both the UK and the United States to protect our technological inventions. These AI/NLP inventions will revolutionise compliance and help us complete our mission to provide a level playing field for businesses regardless of their geography. As it develops, our broader Metaverse infrastructure will enable communication, interaction, and transaction between currently siloed virtual worlds, and from there to traditional and off-chain financial institutions and systems. We are working hard to use artificial intelligence to enact real change; there’s lots more to come.
