Quint Group has appointed fintech veteran Laurence Krieger in an advisory capacity focused on mergers and acquisitions strategy. Krieger brings extensive sector experience, having previously served as Chief Commercial Officer at UK challenger bank Tide and Chief Operating Officer at digital banking unicorn Revolut. The credit and payments-focused fintech group announced the appointment today as it looks to accelerate growth through strategic deals.
The move signals Quint’s ambitions to expand through acquisitions in the competitive fintech space. Krieger’s track record at two of Europe’s most prominent digital banking platforms positions him to identify high-value targets and navigate complex deal structures. His operational expertise from scaling Revolut during its hypergrowth phase and commercial leadership at SME-banking specialist Tide provides dual perspective on both consumer and business fintech markets.
The appointment comes as consolidation accelerates across fintech, with funding constraints pushing smaller players toward strategic combinations.
