FAM provides an intuitive dashboard tracking multi-generational family assets across borders, bridging the digital divide between tech-savvy family members and seniors managing traditional investments

The problem Family Asset Monitoring: FAM solves

    Navigating complex technical specifications from ReBIT and Sahamati

  2. Technical Learning Curve

  4. Data and Testing Challenges

    Creating realistic test scenarios for various financial instruments
    Modeling data structures for different types of financial information
    The journey required significant investment in understanding security best practices, API integration patterns, and financial data handling, while maintaining a focus on building a reliable and secure application.
