At Verto, we’re on a mission to democratise global finance and empower businesses in Emerging Markets to reach the world. Founded by British‑Nigerian entrepreneurs Ola Oyetayo and Anthony Oduu, our roots in Africa gave us a firsthand understanding of the significant challenges businesses face with cross‑border payments.
