N26 Achieves Profitability with 40% Revenue Surge
The German neobank rebounds after regulatory restrictions, investing heavily in fraud prevention.
- N26's revenue is projected to increase by 40% to approximately 440 million euros in 2024.
- The company has reached profitability for the first time, reporting monthly profits over the past six months.
- Regulatory restrictions imposed by Bafin limited N26's growth from November 2021 to June 2024 due to concerns over money laundering controls.
- During the restriction period, N26 invested over 100 million euros in fraud prevention, incorporating artificial intelligence.
- Despite revenue growth, N26 will end 2024 with a 20 million euro operational loss due to strategic investment decisions.
