Santiago, 13 November 2023 – Ebury, a leading global fintech with 40 offices spanning 25 countries, announces its strategic move of expanding its operations into Chile.

C
ommenting on this global expansion, Duarte Líbano Monteiro, Head of LATAM (excluding Brazil) and Regional Director for Southern Europe at Ebury, says,

“Our global expansion strategy to Chile reflects our long-standing commitment to strengthen our presence across Latin America. The economic characteristics of Chile, such as an open economy, a global business sector and an expanding market, played a pivotal role when deciding our move to progressively introduce our offerings in the Latin American market.”

“Ebury was born in 2009 to support small and medium-sized companies affected by the crisis but underserved by traditional banks,” said Duarte Líbano Monteiro.

“Since its inception, Ebury has grown at a phenomenal pace. Our list of investors includes prominent names such as Banco Santander, Vitruvian, AngelCoFund and 83North. We feel proud about our achievements until now and are excited to further accelerate our growth in 2024 with clear goals and a strategic roadmap,” he said.

Alfonso Molinare, Country Manager of Chile, said that Ebury empowers SMEs, importers and exporters with simplified, secure and transparent financial solutions to expand beyond borders.
“We are targeting these companies because they have traditionally experienced more difficulties in accessing banking services,” emphasised Alfonso Molinare.

He also points out that Ebury aims to support its clients by delivering agile, competitive solutions and specialised know-how. He also highlights their extensive currency capabilities in 130+ currencies worldwide allows companies to seamlessly unlock opportunities in new markets.

Molinare underlines the company’s competitive edge and unique strengths compared to local fintechs and banks.“We are a digital-born company with almost 15 years of history and a proven success model and impressive growth trajectory in Europe, Asia, Oceania, and North America, and now proliferating in Latin America.”

The opening in Chile coincides with the launch of Ebury Bank in Brazil and its imminent plans to expand in Mexico.
