Meyer Malka Joins Robinhood Markets’ Board of Directors

Yesterday, Robinhood Markets confirmed that Meyer “Micky” Malka, a prominent investor and founder of Ribbit Capital, has joined its Board of Directors. His joining is effective from 23 March 2022.

With more than 25 years of presence in the global technology and financial services industry, Malka built several leading internet-related companies across different regions. In 2012, he founded Ribbit Capital, one of the biggest venture capital firms in the world.

Prior to Ribbit Capital, Malka worked with different financial services businesses in the US and Latin America. He currently serves on the Board of Ribbit LEAP, Ltd.

“Robinhood has served millions of customers left behind by an arcane legacy financial system,” said Malka. “As a Board member, I’m thrilled to continue supporting Robinhood as it deepens its relationship with customers and expands its mission beyond the United States.”

Last year, Frances Frei, Professor of Technology and Operations Management at Harvard Business School, joined the Board of Directors of Robinhood Markets. Amid growing adoption of innovative financial trading products, Robinhood Markets has expanded its operations significantly in the past 12 months.
