About the Targeted Remittance Markets

According to the World Bank, remittances to Sub-Saharan Africa grew almost 10 percent to $46 billion in 2018, supported by strong economic conditions in high-income economies. Remittances to the Middle East and North Africa grew 9 percent to $62 billion in the same year.

The Company's Strategy Concerning the African Continent

In conjunction with today's Africa focused definitive agreement the company will draw upon the profound knowledge and relationships of RevoluGROUP Executive Director Mr. Bernard Lonis. Mr. Lonis, a diplomat and dual Senegalese/French citizen, was the consul of Senegal in Spain for approximately 7 years until late 2019, at which time he was named the consul to France in Spain. France has one of the largest populations of African migrants in Europe, a large proportion of inhabitants of its overseas departments and territories who have African roots live in the country but maintain sociocultural, economic or political ties to their country of origin. The ensemble of the French population with an African heritage is estimated to be close to 5.5 Million citizens. Remittances from African diasporas are estimated to be three times the total sum of official development assistance around the world ($429 billion in 2016) Source.

Top 40 World Bank Update
Further to the news release dated the 25th May 2020, RevoluPAY S.L. CEO, Alfredo Manresa, successfully notarized the cited legal deed on the 26th May, modifying the: paid-up share capital, operating license and corporate name to properly reflect the new licensed financial nomenclature - RevoluPAY EP S.L.
