Dutch challenger bank bunq said today it is expanding its investment product, Stocks, to Ireland.
Stocks, which is tailored for digital nomads, allows Irish users to easily invest in a selection of the most popular US and European stocks and ETFs.
Bunq said the move comes as it actively gains traction in Ireland as it tripled its user base in the country this year.
The neobank said that Ireland has emerged as a key market for it since 2023 and Ireland is now the third largest deposit holding market for bunq.
It said it continues to invest in its local presence by hiring for almost 20 new roles in Ireland in 2024.
"Ireland's vibrant tech scene and the country being in the top 20 most popular destinations for digital nomads worldwide make it one of the most promising markets for bunq," the neo bank said.
Bianca Zwart, bunq's Chief Strategy Officer, said: that digital nomads need an investment product that keeps pace with their global lifestyle.
"With Stocks, our users can effortlessly buy shares of the world’s most exciting companies and ETFs for as little as €10, no matter where they are in the world," she added.
