Here’s the latest I can provide based on current public reporting up to May 2026.
- Nik Storonsky, founder and CEO of Revolut, has publicly signaled that Revolut’s IPO is not imminent and is targeting 2028 for a potential listing, with a valuation aim of $150–$200 billion. This aligns with Storonsky’s recent discussions about delaying an IPO and focusing on growth and liquidity events through secondary offerings in the near term.[1]
- Revolut completed a full UK banking licence in March 2026, and Storonsky has continued to emphasize strategic expansion, including pursuing a U.S. national bank charter to support North American growth.[1]
- In terms of personal ownership and incentives, Storonsky’s stake has hovered around high-20% to 29% depending on long-term incentive plans tied to valuation milestones.[1]
- Media coverage in 2024–2025 highlighted Storonsky’s status as one of Europe’s most valuable tech executives and Revolut as a standout private fintech with plans to broaden international footprint, including the Gulf and potential U.S. expansion.[3][5]
- There has been occasional coverage of Storonsky’s residence and tax-related discussions around London housing and residency moves; several outlets noted his involvement in post-tax policy conversations affecting ultra-high-net-worth entrepreneurs in the UK, although these reports vary in detail and certainty.[5]
If you’d like, I can narrow this to:
- Specific dates and quotes from Storonsky on IPO timing
- The latest regulatory milestones Revolut has achieved (e.g., banking licence status, charter applications)
- A quick snapshot of Revolut’s valuation trajectory and liquidity events in 2026
Would you prefer a focused summary on regulatory milestones, or a timeline of Storonsky’s public statements and Revolut’s liquidity events?
