Matteo Conti
Market Correspondent
Milan, Italy
Matteo covers Southern European crowdlending for TopPulse, with granular analysis of platforms operating in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece. He reported on fintech and alternative finance at Il Sole 24 Ore, Italy's leading financial daily, then joined the Moneyfarm research team, gaining hands-on experience with retail investment and robo-advisory products. That mix of newsroom and buy-side work gives him an eye for the gap between how a platform markets itself locally and how it actually operates. At TopPulse he maintains the country context behind the market pages, reads local-language filings and regulator communications first-hand, and helps readers navigate Mediterranean markets where regulation and platform quality are still moving fast. He is often the first to notice when a regional platform's story stops adding up. Matteo holds a degree in Economics from Bocconi University in Milan.
