The office will aim to offer ‘better’ international payment services to its clients than those delivered by traditional banking organisations, stated the firm.

In Luxembourg, Ebury offers several services, including issuing blocking certificates within 48 hours. These services comply with local regulations to substantiate that funds have been blocked until the creation of a company is finished.

Besides Luxembourg, which is a centre of global alternative investment industry, Ebury has operations in ten countries across the globe.

Ebury global head of institutional solutions Lamin Jaiteh said: “Luxembourg is a hub for alternative investments and so establishing our presence in this geography will be crucial to achieving our ambitious aims in the sector.
