Sapphire CFO Solutions Launches Proprietary SaaS Models to Deliver Value
Sapphire CFO Solutions, founded by fractional CFO, cross-functional C-level leader, and executive board member Heather Hall, has launched proprietary SaaS models to provide a level of passion and expertise beyond traditional finance functions. To future-proof businesses' financial foundation, the company offers financial planning and analysis, robust control and governance, strategic risk mitigation, optimized cash flow, and minimized tax exposure, among many other services. Additionally, inspired by the belief that finance should drive growth, not headaches, Sapphire developed a suite of comprehensive SaaS models.
Heather Hall
The firm partners with founders, CEOs, investors, and boards of high-growth businesses, with a focus on financial services, SaaS, and tech-enabled sectors. Hall, leveraging her over 30 years of industry experience, delivers strategic insights and scalable systems that instill clarity and confidence in clients. Working side-by-side as a partner, Sapphire connects numbers, strategy, and execution, empowering businesses to make informed and smarter decisions, whether their goal is to scale, merge, exit, or transition.
Sapphire's set of SaaS financial models takes this commitment to the next level, addressing startups' common pain points by providing easy-to-utilize, templated solutions for various scenarios. Linked together and automated, these models work as a cohesive unit. For C-suite executives, this tool is particularly valuable, highlighting the company's stage of growth, areas in need of refinement, KPIs, and other elements. With customizable dashboards, Sapphire's SaaS models can be personalized to the unique needs of every client.
For Hall, this venture is personal, inspired by her wealth of experience in senior-level finance roles across private, public, and nonprofit environments. In the industry since 1994, she has held high positions in financial services, fintech, and tech-enabled businesses, excelling in building scalable and sustainable financial infrastructure that aligns strategy with goals. But what truly makes Hall stand out is her cross-functional background in finance, HR, and operations.
With an intimate understanding of all, she blends financial acumen with transparency and communication skills to make complex concepts digestible. Because of her personable approach and the ability to share knowledge with diverse audiences, Hall is more than a C-suite leader; she is a mentor. For instance, at 280 CapMarkets, a fintech startup she co-founded and led as CFO and Head of HR, she tapped into her mentorship role to empower female engineers with the tools to thrive long-term.
After 280 CapMarkets' successful merger deal, Hall founded Sapphire CFO Solutions in 2023, building it on the same values that shaped her illustrious and impressive career. A licensed CPA in California, a Chartered Global Management Accountant (CGMA), and a FINRA-licensed Financial and Operations Principal (Series 27), Hall also serves on the boards of Third Economy, a leading ESG consulting firm, and VIA³, a sustainability-focused fintech startup.
Understanding that a detail-oriented CFO doesn't only catch small errors, Hall maintains a holistic yet meticulous approach, unafraid to get her hands dirty in the complexity of SaaS nuances. Designed by Hall, Sapphire's suite of SaaS models opens the doors for clients to access cutting-edge tools tailored to their needs without the exorbitant cost of acquiring IP.
Beyond finance functions, Sapphire offers SaaS models for sales and marketing teams, each designed to build a stable, scalable, and sustainable foundation. The firm's passion for startups and growth companies is evident, as Hall adjusts fees based on their top-line revenue. This flexibility has resulted in many long-term partnerships, which have quickly proven mutually beneficial.
'It's all about helping businesses succeed, especially startups. I know what it's like to pour literal blood, sweat, and tears into a business and then watch it thrive. It's truly the best feeling in the world when your dedication pays off,' she reflects. 'And, when it comes to SaaS, it's important to get it right. That's why, with Sapphire, businesses get more than services. They get end-to-end support, personalized dashboards, education, and more than three decades worth of expertise—that's the real value we deliver.'

It's Time to Promote the Correct Crypto Allocation
Let's be honest. Last month, I released a white paper explaining that conservative investors should allocate 10% to crypto, moderate clients should invest 25% and aggressive investors should place 40% of their portfolios into crypto. Bitcoin has outperformed every other asset class for 12 of the past 15 years, and it's highly likely that it will continue to do so for years to come. Institutions are investing like never before. Congress and the administration now fully support crypto, and we're beginning to get the regulatory clarity we've wanted. The SEC and FINRA's prohibitions that blocked brokerage firms from trading or custodying crypto have been rescinded. The OCC and the Fed have revoked similar prohibitions against banks, and the Department of Labor has rescinded its objection that prevented 401(k) plans from offering bitcoin as an investment option. Despite the growth and performance of bitcoin, I keep seeing suggestions that people ought to allocate only 1 or 2 percent to crypto. In my opinion, that is no longer enough. Crypto is no longer speculative. It is no longer niche. It now deserves to be treated as a core allocation. Consider this hypothetical illustration, comparing a traditional 60/40 portfolio of stocks/bonds to portfolios that hold 10 percent, 25 percent or 40 percent in bitcoin. Let's assume we invest $100 for five years, earning 7 percent annually in the 60/40 allocation. Let's also look at two extreme outcomes: bitcoin either becomes worthless, or it rises in five years to $1 million (roughly a 10x increase from today). As you see in the chart below, the $100 invested in the 60/40 portfolio rises to $140 after five years. Not bad. But the portfolio with a 25 percent bitcoin allocation could be worth more than 250 percent more. Even if bitcoin were to become worthless (and you held it all the way to zero), your portfolio would still be profitable – with a value above your original investment. Seems to me that the risk/reward ratio strongly favors a significant crypto allocation – and certainly one that's far higher than a measly 1 or 2 percent. Potential Range of Portfolio Returns Based on Bitcoin Allocation Bitcoin's price appreciation isn't speculation – it's just supply and demand. In Q1 2025, public companies purchased 95,000 bitcoins – more than double the new supply. And that's from just one category of buyers – it ignores additional demand from retail investors, financial advisors, family offices, hedge funds, institutional investors and sovereign wealth funds. This massive imbalance between supply and demand is driving bitcoin's price to all-time highs. I predict that bitcoin will reach $500,000 by 2030 – a 5x increase as of this writing. The adoption curve has tremendous room to run – supporting the thesis that there is substantial upside yet to come in bitcoin's price. Read the white paper for more. Sign in to access your portfolio

Clear Junction Extends Named Virtual IBAN Services to VASP-Licensed Businesses
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Clear Junction, a specialist in global payments and banking infrastructure for regulated financial institutions, has extended access to its named virtual IBAN (vIBAN) services to licensed virtual asset service providers (VASPs) – a functionality previously only available to banks and electronic money institutions (EMIs). "The virtual asset ecosystem has matured rapidly, but fiat infrastructure has often lagged behind. We're closing that gap, and this launch is another step toward normalising crypto within global payments." – Dima Kats, CEO and Founder of Clear Junction Share A named vIBAN is a unique code assigned to an individual customer for sending and receiving payments, without creating a separate payment account. This approach enables full traceability of funds, streamlined reconciliation, enhanced AML and KYC processes, and greater institutional trust. By offering this capability to European and UK-licensed crypto asset providers, Clear Junction aims to strengthen the fiat infrastructure available to regulated crypto firms and help them overcome long-standing barriers to accessing reliable account services. It forms part of Clear Junction's broader strategy to bridge the fiat and digital asset ecosystems through enterprise-grade, compliance-focused infrastructure. As regulatory clarity improves across key markets – including the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework and the UK's new crypto registration requirements – crypto companies are under growing pressure to meet higher standards of compliance, AML screening, and auditability. Yet many still face institutional gatekeeping and outdated banking systems that restrict access to essential fiat services, often forcing them to rely on high-friction workarounds or intermediaries. Clear Junction's named vIBANs solve these challenges by giving digital asset providers direct access to fiat settlement capabilities and customer-level account referencing. This unlocks a range of crypto-specific use cases, including me-to-me transfers, fiat-to-crypto conversions, and automated treasury operations. In turn, it boosts operational efficiency, reduces risk, and enables crypto-native institutions to deliver bank-like services on par with traditional fintechs and EMIs. Dima Kats, CEO and Founder of Clear Junction, commented: 'The virtual asset ecosystem has matured rapidly, but fiat infrastructure has often lagged behind. We're closing that gap, and this launch is another step toward normalising crypto within the global payments ecosystem. 'We've long understood that VASPs face an uphill battle accessing fiat services, even when they're fully licensed and compliant. This launch is about solving that pain point with a practical, scalable solution. By extending named vIBANs to digital asset providers, we're giving regulated crypto institutions the tools they need to scale responsibly, with full compliance and greater operational clarity.' Example use cases include: Wallet operators assigning unique vIBANs to individual users, enabling fiat deposits/withdrawals with reference-free reconciliation Crypto exchanges managing multiple jurisdictions and currency pairs with cleaner fund flows OTC desks executing high-volume fiat-to-crypto conversions under tighter operational controls Token issuers streamlining fiat treasury flows across ecosystems This service complements Clear Junction's broader digital asset offering, which includes: Instant fiat deposits and withdrawals EUR and GBP payment rails via SEPA and FPS On/off-ramp solutions for fiat-to-crypto transactions On-chain transfers via its stablecoin payment service supporting USDT and USDC on Ethereum, Solana, and Tron networks The expanded vIBAN service is backed by Clear Junction's deep regulatory expertise and technology platform purpose-built for regulated institutions. The group is one of the few UK-based entities licensed both as an EMI and a crypto‑asset service provider by the Financial Conduct Authority, uniquely positioning it to support the evolving needs of the digital asset sector. Founded in 2016, Clear Junction enables financial institutions to access accounts, vIBANs, payment networks, FX services, and e-wallets quickly, securely, and in full compliance with regulatory requirements. Its infrastructure is built to reduce time to market, expand access to new regions, and power faster, safer global payments.
