Autonomous B2B billing and collections platform Anchor has announced that it has appointed Tal Ben Bassat as its new VP of Finance and Operations. Before joining Anchor, Ben Bassat served as a senior executive at Mastercard’s New Payment Platform division out of London, UK.
“Anchor’s end-to-end platform fully automates the entire billing cycle: from the minute the relationship starts with an agreement until the money is transferred to the vendor and reconciled in the general ledger. This provides both businesses and their clients full control, flexibility, transparency, and security by leveraging Open Banking and Account-to-Account payments,” said Ben Bassat. “This is a simple and elegant solution for a complex problem that will help companies secure their cash flows, and long-term growth. I am excited to join Anchor’s experienced and highly motivated team in bringing businesses into the automation age.”

Tal’s skills and multidisciplinary experience make him a perfect partner in this journey, and we are thrilled to have him on board.”
