Fintech Specialist VC — Investor Reviewer

**Jerome Baptiste** is a Partner at Ribbit Capital, a $1.2B fund focused exclusively on financial services innovation. He covers embedded finance, banking-as-a-service, and payment infrastructure. Before Ribbit, he spent 6 years at Goldman Sachs in the Financial Institutions Group and 3 years at Stripe's financial partnerships team, where he helped launch Stripe Treasury. He grew up in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and moved to New York at 14 — an experience that gave him a visceral understanding of how broken financial infrastructure is for people outside the mainstream system.
