Mr Davies will take charge of business lending specialist Allica Bank late next month, subject to regulatory approval.
“In the aftermath of Covid, it’s such an important time for the UK small and medium-sized business market, and the chance to lead a newly licensed bank that can be part of the solution is a great opportunity,” Mr Davies said. “It was a difficult decision . . . and I wouldn’t want to transition if we hadn’t already made massive progress.” Revolut said Mr Davies will continue to serve as an adviser to its European business, and will remain a non-executive director of its international holding company.
