Banking Circle

Today, Anders la Cour and I have started our transition out of Banking Circle - the business we founded and built together with so many great people over the past 13 years. Anders will migrate to a Senior Advisor role and stay closely connected to the business, and I will remain CEO of Banking Circle S.A. up until end of April 2027. As we give a warm welcome to Kush Saxena as new Group CEO and Ralph Hamers as new Group Chairman, Banking Circle Group is perfectly positioned to continue its trajectory during this next phase. For now, we’ll take some time to reflect and recharge. The passion for building the future, however, has not disappeared. The energy from creating something unique with its constant ups and downs is addictive and part of us, and while we will stay closely connected to the business and root from the sideline, we are equally excited about what the next chapter holds for us.

This one is especially exciting for me personally. My first role after university was working directly with funds and investment structures, so this space has always been close to me. When I joined Banking Circle, I always thought this was an area where we could genuinely add value and build something differentiated. Alongside supporting NBFI clients, we are now working closely with funds, asset managers and fund administrators to help support account opening and banking infrastructure for fund structures operating across multiple jurisdictions. Proud to see this vertical continuing to grow and excited for what is ahead.

The fintechs that scale successfully across Europe usually have one thing in common: Strong infrastructure from day one. At Banking Circle, more than 750 regulated financial institutions rely on us for modern banking and payments infrastructure built for scale - and we’ve had a front row seat to what it really takes to expand across borders successfully. This week we’re at Fintech Roadmap 2026 in Prague! If you’re attending, come along to Tomáš Novotný’s panel: “Building Blocks for Fintech” - and ask us about the invite-only discussions we’re hosting alongside the event.
