Founder and CEO

Fabian is the founder and CEO of Compounding Machines OU, which operates The Scalable Investor. He started The Scalable Investor because he was dissatisfied with the current state of financial education. In his opinion, everyone should have access to educational content explaining every aspect of investing in an easy-to-understand and beginner-friendly way. Apart from his work at The Scalable Investor, Fabian loves to read books covering various topics in finance, including his favorite, “Margin of Safety” by Seth Klarman.
