Deepening of Troubles
The London-listed company’s troubles began as its debts soared to around $1.3 billion. The impact went deeper as the global foreign exchange (forex) business of the company was impacted by the Coronavirus pandemic. Finablr operates Travelex, a major British forex company.
These resulted in the exit of the company’s top executives, including its CEO and CFO. The group’s billionaire founder, BR Shetty also stepped down as the co-chairman in August.
“We are delighted with the Finablr deal, representing as it is the first major UAE-Israeli commercial transaction,” Guy Rothschild, Prism’s co-founder and director, said. “Finablr offers a huge opportunity in the digital payments space across multiple emerging markets and its assets and proprietary technology positions it for further global growth.”
