FinecoBank, one of Europe’s leading fintech banks, reported record volumes from its UK client base this quarter. Fineco’s current accounts increased by around 50% in April 2021 compared to the end of 2020.

The bank’s strategy to attract quality customers has translated successfully in the UK, as strong customer retention and loyalty has helped to drive the bank’s continued growth. Fineco’s targeting of  experienced traders looking for a quality has boosted the bank’s retention rate, and now more than 70% of Fineco’s clients hold active current accounts on brokerage.

 Highlights:

●     Fineco recorded net profit of €94.7 million for Q1 (+2.7% y/y) and gross operating profit of €144.5 million (+7.2% YoY)

●     Record breaking UK growth with new UK current accounts in the first four months of 2021 – surpassing annual 2020 total

●     UK growth momentum follows successful ISA launch in April

●     UK investing platform continues to expand with the introduction of funds from NinetyOne, Invesco, Candriam and AXA announced this year

FinecoBank entered the UK market three years ago with a unique offering combining brokerage, banking and investment services.

Paolo Di Grazia, Vice General Manager of FinecoBank commented: “Fineco entered the UK market as we saw the need for a provider that could offer a number of financial services through a single digital platform. Our accelerating growth shows that our one stop solution works, and more and more Britons are finding the effectiveness of our approach. Our promise is to continue to build on our platform. With the recent addition of the Fineco ISA and more investment options, we’re able to provide our growing number of customers a stronger integrated offering.”
