Could you build this?
No Palus Finance operates as an AI-enabled treasury management and fractional CFO service executing financial actions (like shifting cash into T-Bills and corporate bonds) without switching banks. Treasury trading and broker-dealer operations require financial regulations (RIA/FINRA), banking partner integrations, and capital fiduciary oversight.
What it would actually take: A real version requires integrations with custodian banks and brokerages (e.g., Apex, DriveWealth, or directly with major custodians via FIX/proprietary APIs), Plaid/bank aggregators, and an automated portfolio rebalancing engine. The fundamental barriers are SEC/state RIA registrations, stringent financial compliance, AML/KYC infrastructure, and real accounting/CFA domain expertise to supervise AI CFO outputs.
