What was your reaction on Wednesday when
0:06
you heard the news?
0:06
>> Oh, thrilled, Sam. The thing we we
0:08
haven't been talking about is how good
0:09
it is for London and fintech in general
0:10
in the UK. There was a moment where I
0:12
think everyone was talking about, you
0:13
know, moving their offices and going to
0:15
other other places and and whether or
0:17
not London had lost its magic, but I
0:19
think it's a great time for the city. It
0:20
just an obviously it comes just a week
0:22
after we saw the bid for the US license.
0:24
I mean, technically it's it's a second
0:25
bid, but this is more at the state level
0:27
now. What do you think it kind of tells
0:29
us about Revolut's international
0:30
expansion plans versus how they are
0:32
committed to the home market as well? I
0:34
think Revolut's very committed to the
0:35
UK.
