About Drew Katz
In 2017, Drew Katz quietly shut down his Series B, funded fintech startup, not because it failed, but because its core algorithm had begun enabling predatory micro-lending in emerging markets, and he refused to ship a 'compliance-mode' patch that masked the harm. That decision cost him $42M in valuation and two board members, but it seeded the ethical architecture behind Atlas Ledger, his open-source governance layer now used by 37 central banks to audit real-time algorithmic credit scoring. He doesn’t speak in ‘disruption’ or ‘synergy’, he maps capital flows like circuit diagrams, tracing how latency arbitrage in Nairobi’s mobile money rails reshapes smallholder crop insurance in real time. His office has no whiteboard; instead, a live feed scrolls global API error logs from financial inclusion tools, color-coded by equity impact. He believes regulation isn’t a constraint, it’s the first spec sheet for humane infrastructure.
