2) Team Slide – Freetrade
Freetrade is the UK equivalent of Robinhood, a company that specializes in stock trading. We enjoyed reading at their deck and how they created their team slide.

8) Traction Slide – Monzo
Isn’t it easier to create a traction slide when you have something to shout about? Monzo have really strong numbers to cover, and they show them on a simple understated slide.
