Peter Smith is only 37 years old but is already accomplished with many prominent positions within  Retail Banking. Since 2016 he has served as CEO of Nordea Kredit, at the same time overseeing  development of Housing Finance in the Nordic bank.   

Now the talented bank profile can add the fintech company Lunar Way to his resume.   

Lunar Way's ambitions have been high from the start, and a lot has happened in the past  three years. We have gained 50,000 active users, we have launched our business product,  Lunar Way Business, and we are launching in Sweden and Norway. The journey has just  begun, and we have now reached a point where someone with skills to help us accelerate  our growth is needed, says CEO and founder of Lunar Way, Ken Villum Klausen.

Peter's in-depth knowledge of traditional banking, and his understanding of the underlying  infrastructure, will be invaluable in our further development. He is also part of a new  generation of bankers who rethink banking. That fits perfectly with the Lunar Way journey.  Peter will undoubtedly be a tremendous asset to the team, Ken Villum Klausen elaborates.   

Lunar Way is a Danish fintech company established in Aarhus in 2015. Lunar Way offers a 100%  digital and mobile solution with an app, account and card.    

Behind Lunar Way are, among others, IT entrepreneur Ken Villum Klausen, Chairman of the Board  Henning Kruse Petersen, who is also former CEO of Nykredit, and former Chairman of Financial  Stability. Tuva Palm, former CTO and CPO at Nordnet Bank, as well as former head of Klarna, is also  part of Lunar Ways board of directors.
