FNG has learned that London based executive Sergei Riabov has left his position as Head of Wealth & Trading at neobank Revolut.
Sergei Riabov had been with Revolut since 2022, joining initially as Head of Product – Wealth & Trading before being promoted to his current position earlier this year. At Revolut, he oversaw the launch of CFDs trading, Robo-advisor, EU and UK securities, ETFs, and bonds.
Prior to joining Revolut, Sergei worked at Russian digital bank Tinkoff, ending his tenure at Tinkoff as Head of Product.
We had reported last year the Revolut is entering EU CFDs trading business with Revolut Invest. Later in 2024 Revolut received approval from UK financial regulator The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) as an investment firm, which will permit it to expand its services from banking and payment services to include stock and CFDs trading in the UK.
Sergei posted the following note on social media regarding his departure from Revolut.
After almost 3 incredible years at Revolut, it’s time for me to step away.
I’m proud of what we’ve built – a fast-scaling, international brokerage business that now helps millions invest smarter. Over this time, we’ve massively grown our customer base, assets under custody, and trading volumes – showing what’s possible with sharp focus and an exceptional team 🚀
Huge thanks to everyone I had the chance to work with – your energy, talent, and ambition made this journey truly special ❤️
What’s next? A short break to spend time with my family and recharge. After that, I’m open to discuss advisory roles – with both startups and established companies looking to unlock growth and scale their product. If that sounds relevant, I’d love to connect.
