Where banks stop,
we begin

01

The problem

Banks are progressively withdrawing personal service, de-risking client portfolios and pushing clients towards digital-only communication. This is not what the market demands.

02

The solution

From that need we founded Taper: a non-bank boutique delivering payments, FX spot, FX hedging, IBAN accounts and flexible trade financing through global fintech connections.

03

The standard

With over 30 years of combined experience, we know payments are mission-critical. Our goal is to give SMEs the same level of service and products that was once the standard.

"

We start exactly where banks stop. No call centre, just our mobile number.
