In this episode of British Suits and Cowboy Boots, Richard is joined by Ron Oliveira, CEO of Revolut USA, a global Fintech company headquartered in London. Ron illustrates how Revolut, a digital banking and payments start-up launched in 2015, has grown rapidly to become the UK’s most valuable tech company ever. He discusses engineering Revolut’s official entry into the United States and choosing Dallas, TX as the company’s largest US office. 

Ron discusses UK versus US consumer technology in financial services, changing consumer habits and practices, and why Revolut is so competitive against legacy and digital banks.

He also details Revolut’s crypto-exchange and the future of cryptocurrency, notably now that Texas has passed the “Virtual Currency Bill” which recognises the legal status of virtual currencies in the State of Texas.

A can’t miss conversation about the future of finance.
