The fintech company Salaryo, acquired by Meitav Credit from the Meitav Investment House group in 2021, is at the center of a lawsuit filed by a group of private investors. The investors are suing Salaryos founders, Yair Levy and Omri Avishar, for $1.4 million, claiming the acquisition was against the companys interests and led to the loss of their investment. They argue that the deal was intended to end the companys operations and render it insolvent. Meitav has since sold Salaryo to a third party for no consideration. The founders have dismissed the claims as baseless.
