ChainCatcher Сообщение, согласно отчету Bloomberg, материнская компания бразильского крипто-дружественного цифрового банка Nubank, Nu Holdings, получила официальную банковскую лицензию от мексиканского финансового регулятора Comision Nacional Bancaria y de Valores, что позволяет ей осуществлять операции с зарплатными счетами, текущими счетами, вкладами с более высокими лимитами и другими кредитными продуктами на местном рынке.С момента выхода на мексиканский рынок в 2019 году Nubank инвестировала миллиарды долларов, и в настоящее время количество клиентов превышает 15 миллионов, что составляет около 15% взрослого населения страны.
