Evripidou will lead the company’s expansion strategy, responsible for global banking operations. She joins Xace from Yapily, a prominent open banking start-up, where she led its public policy and compliance function.

It is one of a string of recent appointments at Xace, following the arrival of COO Alexandra Cernescu. The company has expanded rapidly in the past year, notably among gaming companies that struggle to acquire traditional high street bank accounts.
