Innovative Equal Sharing Model

esh Bank's Equal Sharing Model marks a significant shift from traditional banking by distributing 50% of revenues generated from customer current account balances directly to users each week. This approach ensures complete visibility into how funds create value, free from hidden fees or complex terms, fostering trust and efficiency. Designed for both retail customers and small businesses, the model aligns bank profitability with customer benefits, enabling radical transparency in financial relationships.

Hyper-Efficient Operations Through Automation

By automating back-office processes and minimizing staff dependencies, esh Bank achieves industry-leading efficiency that supports its revenue-sharing innovation while sustaining profitability. The absence of account fees combined with streamlined services positions the institution as a modern alternative, addressing longstanding pain points in banking accessibility and cost structures for Israeli users.

AI-Native eOS Platform as Core Foundation

At the heart of esh Bank's operations is eOS, a breakthrough AI-native, full-stack core banking platform integrating general ledger, digital channels, compliance, payments, cybersecurity, and product creation into a unified, real-time system. This eliminates data silos and manual workflows plaguing legacy banks, enabling autonomous functionality and the scalability required for customer-centric models. Strategic partnerships with AWS for cloud infrastructure, SWIFT for global messaging, and a principal issuing license from Mastercard ensure robust security and seamless connectivity.

Leadership Vision for Transformative Banking

"At esh Bank, we’re proud to introduce the first fully transparent banking experience," said Yuval Aloni, Co-Founder and CEO of the esh Group. "We’ve built a model designed to empower customers with clarity, efficiency, and confidence in their finances. By making banking simpler and more transparent, we’re creating a foundation where both our customers and the bank can thrive together."

“Technology has always been, for me, a tool to create major changes. esh Bank is an example of how it’s possible to transform an entire industry - the way a bank operates and the way it serves customers. It’s not just a new bank, but a new way of thinking about efficiency, innovation, and value,” said Nir Zuk, Director and investor at esh Group.

“Some banks think that innovation means saying ‘AI’ and adding an app, while continuing to work as they did 30 years ago. True innovation is solving the problem at its root - both for the bank itself and for delivering real value to customers. That’s exactly what esh Bank is doing.”

esh Bank's emergence sets a benchmark for hyper-efficient, transparent banking in Israel, leveraging AI and strategic alliances to prioritize customer value. As the institution scales, its model promises to influence global fintech by demonstrating how technology can resolve inherent conflicts in traditional finance, delivering mutual growth for banks and users alike.

The Company will host an online presentation unveiling the bank on September 15, 2025, at 12:30 p.m. ET, which can be streamed live at http://www.esh.com
