Revolut has won a full French banking licence, its second in the EU, giving it a Paris hub and the right to offer real lending across Western Europe.

Revolut revealed on Monday its European arm will accelerate its continental push after bagging a new permit in France.

La banque en ligne britannique a connu ces dernières années une croissance fulgurante. Elle disposait déjà d’une licence en Lituanie et au Royaume-Uni.
