Since her regular visits to her grandmother, who was an active trader, she is fascinated with the fast pace of trading in capital markets. She studied at Georgetown University in the US, Tongji University in China, as well as Mannheim Business School in Germany. Being fascinated by capital markets all her life, it comes as no surprise, that she joined Goldman Sachs in London, as well as Bloomberg in Reuters in London as well. When she relocated to Germany, to study in Mannheim, she also set up a shop there with her hybrid Robo advisor for women.   Affiliate LinksWhy not learn from entrepreneurs and executives who are open to sharing their favorite books.

Rukayyat Kolawole, Founder and CEO PaceUP Investment  The StartupPaceUp Investment (https://www.paceupinvest.com/) is a hybrid Robo advisor headquartered in Mannheim Germany. We have talked about Mannheim before, but a short wrap-up: It is the only city in Germany set up in squares. Mannheim is the first city in the world, where a car drove (Carl Benz lived close by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Benz) and the place where the world’s first electric elevator was installed here in 1880 (Werner von Siemens). Rakuyyat set up her company PaceUP here to help women build wealth with a hybrid approach, combining remote investment advice with a Robo advisor. PaceUp provides women the tools to understand the basics. Then they offer advisory and coaching, before investing with their Robo advisor. Full service with LicensePacUp will be able to offer its full service only after regulatory approval. They are currently looking at Q4 2021 or Q1 2022 to go live.
