Nubank clears major hurdle in securing Mexico banking license

Brazilian fintech Nubank said on Thursday that its Mexico arm received regulatory approval from the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission to begin the process of becoming a full-service bank. In a statement, Nubank, one of the fastest-growing digital lenders in the world, said the process to secure the banking license in Mexico now requires a "rigorous regulatory audit" before obtaining final authorization.

 

Velez called the transition into a bank a "landmark achievement that we trust will stimulate further innovation and competition in Mexico."
