Rowe Price Investment Management, Inc., the funding infusion aims to fuel Stash’s rapid expansion and global reach.

With over 2 million active subscribers, Stash has surpassed $100 million in annual revenue, showcasing its growing popularity among moderate-income investors.
The recent funding round, led by renowned investor T. Rowe Price, signifies a vote of confidence in Stash’s unique market positioning. The company also welcomed industry stalwart Amy Butte, former CFO of the New York Stock Exchange, as their inaugural independent audit chair, strengthening their leadership team.
Global Expansion on the Horizon
Stash’s decision to secure this funding highlights its strategic vision for global expansion. The investment will accelerate the company’s growth trajectory, allowing it to tap into new markets and cater to a broader international audience.
