Driven by democratizing access to investment information and assets, Gembot is bridging the gap between DIY platforms and traditional wealth management services in New Zealand.
Their platform empowers investors to make informed decisions, execute strategies efficiently, and be part of a community where they can gain confidence and collaborate.
About Gembot
Founded in late 2021 by Charlie Meaden, Abinesh Krishan, and Nathan Bryant-Taukiri, Gembot started from the founders' success in systematic investing. Through their experiences, it became clear that data, multiple brokerage accounts, and even the entire financial system were fragmented. Their mission then crystallized as they discovered a widespread need to centralize financial literacy, investment planning, and confident execution among investors.
