Rethinking Credit: Philip Belamant on Building with Purpose in Fintech

Zilch CEO Philip Belamant joins David to explain how he’s taking on one of the UK’s biggest financial challenges: the cost of consumer credit.

From fraud prevention to AI commerce agents, this is a founder’s story grounded in intent, execution, and long-term value.
