British P2P lender Zopa, which is working on restructuring its business into three categories for the launch of its challenger bank, is reportedly in talks on closing a £50m ($71.5 million) funding round.
According to Sky News, which first broke the news, this round will bring the fintech’s total valuation to £400 million ($569.20 million).
