The administrative burden of decoding local tax and compliance rules remains a significant hurdle for businesses wanting to enter overseas markets.
A recent independent survey by Revolut Business found that over a quarter (27%) of UK businesses are held back by the complexity of local regulatory compliance. Revolut’s GlobalHire platform allows firms to bypass the complex process of setting up local entities, while automating taxes and payroll on a single platform integrated into the Revolut Business app.
Alex Codina, general manager of merchant payments and GlobalHire at Revolut, comments: “A business’s ambition shouldn’t be limited by where it is headquartered, nor by local currency barriers. GlobalHire goes beyond recruitment; it’s designed to remove administrative friction to hiring for talent obsessed, global firms, while ensuring CFO’s maintain control over capital and compliance.
“We want businesses globally to have access to the same resources to fuel hyper-growth as Revolut did. Launching GlobalHire is a major milestone in our mission to democratise access to global talent, ensuring that the best companies can hire the best talent, regardless of geography.”
The latest bet from Revolut follows a period of significant momentum for the fintech’s business banking arm, which now serves close to 800,000 global businesses and surpassed £277bn ($365bn) in transaction volumes in 2025.
