Revolut’s renewed push for a US banking license follows a failed 2021 attempt, as the $75 billion fintech expands globally.

The London-based company said Thursday that it submitted an application to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to establish “Revolut Bank US, N.A.” The company also appointed fintech veteran Cetin Duransoy as the company’s new US CEO.

Duransoy replaces Sid Jajodia, who will remain with the company as global chief banking officer. Read more
