Ebury

First hub in Southern Italy for the global fintech, which focuses on territorial proximity and the growth of local SMEs

Milan, 12 May 2026 – Ebury, a global fintech specializing in international payments and currency risk management, announces the opening of a new office in Naples, at Via Galileo Ferraris 4. This is the second office in Italy, after Milan, and the first in the South, a strategic move that strengthens its presence in the territory and marks its direct entry into the Southern Italian market (Mezzogiorno).

The inauguration of the new Neapolitan hub is part of a growth strategy focused on widespread presence and customer proximity. The choice of Naples reflects the desire to directly oversee Southern Italy, strengthening its presence in a high-potential area and aiming for the acquisition of new customers. The goal is to support local businesses ever more effectively, offering tailor-made financial solutions to face the challenges related to internationalization, cross-border payments, and currency risk management.

Naples confirms its position as one of the main economic hubs of the Mezzogiorno, within a Campania region that concentrates over 460 thousand active businesses, more than 95% of which are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The Neapolitan metropolitan area represents the heart of this production system, with an entrepreneurial landscape ranging from the manufacturing industry to the agri-food sector, and is part of a wider system of specialized supply chains and districts, a component of a national production model that includes 160 industrial districts and 22 technology poles.

In a context of structural strengthening in Southern Italy – which recorded GDP growth of +7.7% between 2019 and 2024, higher than the national average (+5.8%) – foreign trade also shows signs of consolidation: the area's exports grew by +3.2% year-on-year, highlighting a progressive international opening of local businesses. Growth is driven by high-tech sectors, including the Pharmaceutical Hub of Naples (+13.9%) and the Campania aerospace sector (+30.8%), alongside some of the main district excellences in Campania, such as the buffalo mozzarella sector (+12.6%) and the Neapolitan coffee and confectionery district (+8.1%).

It is precisely this evolution toward increasingly export-driven models that is increasing the operational complexity of businesses and, consequently, the need for specialized financial services for managing cross-border payments and currency risk.

“The opening of the Naples office represents a fundamental step in our growth strategy in Italy,” stated Marta Bonati, Country Manager of Ebury Italia*. “Southern Italy is an area with high potential, dynamic sectors, and businesses increasingly oriented toward export. Being present in the territory allows us to work closely with companies, understand their needs firsthand, and build solid, lasting relationships. Our goal is to become a reference partner for local companies that want to grow in international markets.”*

Ebury currently has over 2,000 employees serving more than 27,000 clients through over 45 offices in more than 30 markets globally.
