In fact, we've built an entire searchable database of them.  Here's a new one from Rebecca Ungarino that caught my eye for fintech DriveWealth's Series C raise.  The size ($56.7 million) and lead investor (Point72 Ventures) in the round are both noteworthy. However, it's what DriveWealth actually does that makes this deck so interesting. The fintech helps companies offer financial services, be it stock trading or do-it-yourself investing. In many ways, it's a key figure in the rise of personal finance apps we've seen over the past few years.  Check out the entire deck here.
