Europe's biggest fintech startup
Cross-border payments company TransferWise is now Europe's most valuable fintech startup. The sale of its shares by early investors and staff, including its cofounders, values the UK-based company at $3.5bn (approximately £2.8bn). Co-founder Taavet Hinrikus says selling some shares now will allow early backers to cash in without forcing the company to go through the “distraction†of going public.
Amazing way to get money transferred quickly, efficiently and cheaply. Keep up the great work people..
