Robust Financial Momentum

Revolut has initiated a secondary sale of shares that values the fintech powerhouse at $75 billion — a significant leap from its previous valuation of $45 billion attained through a last year share sale. This strategic move underscores the company’s ambition to accelerate its expansion plans and establish itself among the world’s leading financial institutions.

Strategic Share Sale Details

According to sources familiar with the proceedings, the secondary sale, which includes shares held by employees, values each share at approximately $1,381.06. While Revolut has acknowledged the process by stating that further comments will be withheld until its conclusion, the share sale itself is already being closely scrutinized within the financial community for its potential market implications.

Path to Banking and Profit Expansion

Earlier in the year, Revolut reported a more than twofold increase in annual profit, primarily driven by robust growth in crypto trading, interest income, and card fees. The company’s financial performance is set to receive an additional boost as it anticipates commencing operations as a UK bank later this year, positioning it for even greater market reach and regulatory recognition.

Fintech Market Leadership

Emerging as one of Europe’s leading digital-only fintech firms founded over the past decade, Revolut has consistently demonstrated its ability to disrupt traditional banking. By capitalizing on innovative financial technologies and a customer-centric model, the company is swiftly redefining the boundaries of conventional financial services while setting the stage to challenge larger, established lenders.

Outlook for the Future

Investors and industry observers alike are eyeing the evolving landscape with interest, as Revolut’s recent valuation surge signals not only current financial strength but also a strategic blueprint for future growth. As the company continues to capitalize on digital transformation trends, its bold financial moves serve as both a marker and a driver of broader industry evolutions.

September 18, 2026

Cyprus expects more French visitors in 2027 as airlines increase capacity between the two countries, Tourism Deputy Minister Kostas Koumis said after meetings with tour operators in Paris.

France, one of Cyprus’ key tourism markets, has had a difficult 2026. French arrivals fell 46% year over year to 8,453 in August, from 15,663 a year earlier, according to the Statistical Service of Cyprus (Cystat). August arrivals were also nearly 50% below the 16,798 recorded in the same month of 2024.

Overall, Cyprus received 2.82 million tourist arrivals between January and August, down 7% from the same period in 2025.

Air Connectivity Supports 2027 Outlook

Koumis discussed the 2027 outlook with senior executives from tour operators offering Cyprus holidays during the IFTM Top Resa travel trade fair in Paris.

Higher air capacity between France and Cyprus was a key focus of the talks. Participants also discussed the impact of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East on the French market and Cyprus’ efforts to adapt its tourism offering to French travelers.

“The French market is undoubtedly an extremely important market for our country’s tourism,” Koumis said, adding that France had regained importance only a few years ago and still had room to grow.

Improved air connectivity will be an important factor in that expansion, according to Koumis. “It is now clear that air connectivity between France and Cyprus is improving significantly, which is a basic prerequisite for the further growth of the market,” he said.

Cyprus Promotes Tourism And Regional Cooperation

Koumis attended the opening of IFTM Top Resa at the invitation of French Tourism Minister Serge Papin, who later visited the Cyprus stand. Held from Sept. 15 to 17 at Paris Porte de Versailles, the event brought together more than 32,000 tourism professionals representing 177 destinations and 1,650 brands, according to organizers.

During his visit, Koumis also met Egyptian Tourism Minister Sherif Fathy. Cyprus and Egypt reaffirmed their tourism cooperation and discussed opportunities to strengthen ties further.

French media interviews covered Cyprus’ tourism offering, infrastructure and services, along with efforts to develop specialized tourism products. Regional instability weighed on arrivals in 2026, particularly during the spring, although the decline narrowed over the summer.
