Dexter Cousins / Matt Baxby

In episode 88 of Fintech Chatter Dexter Cousins reconnects with Matt Baxby, Country CEO of Revolut.

Recorded the week after Revolut became the UK's undisputed Fintech leader, Revolut needs no introduction to our listeners.

A MASSIVE Series E raise valuing Revolut at US $33bn and investors including Tiger and Softbank getting behind the financial super app last week.

It has been 12 months since Matt was last on the show. Since then, Matt has been acting in the Global Banking CEO role overseeing the launch of new businesses in Australia, India, North America and Asia, giving him a unique perspective on how Fintech is taking off globally.

And it has been a record-breaking 12 months for Revolut. Many people thought the global travel restrictions would have crushed Revolut's business model. Instead they have grown to 16 million customers, launched a stack of new products and even hit break-even.

Find out how they've done it and what makes this business so unique in the world of Fintech and digital banking.

Matt also shares his own personal journey from incumbent bank to Fintech rocket ship. And we also get his insights on how to build a high-performing remote-first team, who had never met each other for the first 18 months of operation!

There are some great tips on the hiring process and the skills you need to focus on to deliver long-term success.
