“The Financial Gourmet” Podcast: From Fax to Blockchain – Stefan Lettmeier on Courage in Banking

He's a man who prefers to get things done rather than push PowerPoint slides. Stefan Lettmeier is a co-founder and board member of V-Bank. A platform bank that was already a platform before anyone even knew the term. In a conversation with Caro Tsalkas and Oliver Morath, the Munich native explains how a rebellious idea became an established address for asset managers.

It's about courage, attitude, and genuine banking culture: that's why V-Bank prefers to turn away customers rather than sacrifice service. Lettmeier doesn't want growth at any price.

In his private life, the banker presents himself as a family man with five children. His passions range from motorcycles and skiing to gold coins – and when toasting, he prefers beer to wine. A conversation about staying grounded, digitalization, and the ability to remain firmly rooted in the present, even when one's eyes are long turned to the future.
