Salary benchmarks
Our take
Ebury provides foreign exchange, money transfer and other currency services to small and medium businesses and their banking partners. Demand for its services is increasing in a world that's becoming more globalised, with SMEs trading internationally as well as in their domestic market.
Ebury serves more than 45,000 clients a day and processes over $21 Billion of transactions a year. Investment from Santander in 2020 provided Ebury access to Santander's huge SME customer base, assisting it in a huge period of international growth. This has fuelled the company's global expansion, operating in 21 countries.
There is a lot of competition for these customers, with fast-growing companies like Adyen, Monzo, Revolut and Transferwise going after this market in Europe. Gaining distribution, as it has done in Brazil through a partnership with global payments provider Nium, will give Ebury an edge as it continues to expand.
