Digitalbank: Radikalumbau statt starkes Wachstum: „Marketing-Deckel“ bremst N26 aus
Das einst bekannteste deutsche Fintech ist heute auffällig leise. Das liegt auch an Auflagen der Finanzaufsicht. Insider geben Einblicke in den mühsamen Neuanfang der Berliner Neobank.
Berlin's Neo-Bank N26, once the most prominent and valuable fintech in Germany, has been largely absent from public view for months. Following the departure of founders Valentin Stalf and Maximilian Tayenthal, Mike Dargan took over as CEO in April, and has been restructuring the institution ever since.

Regulatory pressure from the German financial watchdog Bafin is limiting the amount of money the Neo-Bank can spend on marketing. Multiple sources familiar with the situation told the Handelsblatt.
