Wikimedia Commons The David and Goliath narrative is moving to Wall Street, where digital startups look to fight much bigger competitors.
Startups are taking on the financial sector. Some of the companies look to usurp traditional players, and others step into the gaps they've left behind.
Business Insider spoke to venture capitalists and banking veterans to put together a list of lesser-known start ups, some of which are just a couple of month old.
The list includes companies offering online payments, loan origination, wealth management software, cryptocurrency trading and behavioral analysis for financial clients.
Some are worth hundreds of millions, while others are bootstrapped.
Every one is trying to find their place alongside the biggest names on Wall Street.
