Davies also boasted of Ebury’s 'scale and geographical reach' through support from the Spanish multinational financial services company, Banco Santander.

Additionally, the two firms agreed to deploy their resources to share their product and accelerate their commercial activities.

In May, Ebury acquired the Brazilian fintech platform, Bexs, to expand its global payment offerings and strengthen its presence in Brazil.
