Revolut Defies Regulatory Hurdles

Meanwhile, Revolut is facing an investigation by the Financial Conduct Authority over the accusation that it allowed the withdrawal of funds from accounts identified as suspicious by the National Crime Agency (NCA).

A recent report by the Financial Times revealed that between July and August, an estimated £1.7 million was withdrawn from accounts that the NCA had previously flagged. In response to these allegations, Revolut contended that only £500,000 was released from the accounts in question.

Revolut made its foray into the US market in 2020, offering services ranging from money transfers to debit cards. Over time, the company expanded its offerings to include a robo-advisory service for automated investment portfolios.
