British digital bank Monzo's annual profit surges, revenue tops $1.35 billion

(Reuters) -British digital bank Monzo reported revenue above 1 billion pounds ($1.35 billion) for the first time and a sharp rise in annual pretax profit on Monday, driven by strong growth in personal and business customer numbers. The fintech company, which is reportedly gearing up for an initial public offering, posted a pretax profit of 60.5 million pounds for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared with 13.9 million pounds a year earlier. Fiscal year 2024 marked the company's first profitable year. The mobile app-based bank, launched in 2015, is one of several digital banks that have emerged in Britain to challenge the dominance of HSBC, Lloyds, Barclays and NatWest - the country's Big Four. Monzo, which has more than 12 million customers, last year outlined plans to expand into Europe through Ireland and strengthen its presence in the United States. Customer deposits increased 48% to 16.6 billion pounds for the year, the lender said. Monzo has considered listing in either Britain or the United States but has not set a firm timeline or chosen a venue for an IPO, a person familiar with the company's plans told Reuters in March. Sky News reported earlier this month that the lender was preparing to appoint bankers to spearhead its planned stock market floatation. Last October, the British bank was valued at 4.5 billion pounds in an employee share sale to a group of investors, including Singapore's sovereign wealth fund.

Factbox-The top sources of U.S. steel and aluminium imports

(Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday he planned to double tariffs on steel and aluminium imports to 50% from 25%, starting from Wednesday, ratcheting up pressure on global producers and deepening his trade war. Here's a summary of the major trade partners it will affect. STEEL: Roughly a quarter of all steel used in the U.S. is imported, the bulk of it from neighbours Mexico and Canada or close allies in Asia and Europe such as Japan, South Korea and Germany. While China is the world's largest steel producer and exporter, it sends very little to the United States. Tariffs of 25% imposed in 2018 shut most Chinese steel out of the market. China exported 508,000 net tons of steel to the U.S. last year or 1.8% of total American steel imports. ALUMINIUM: For aluminum, the U.S. is more heavily reliant on imports. Roughly half of all aluminium used in the U.S. is imported, with the vast majority coming from Canada. At 3.2 million tons last year, Canadian imports were twice those of the next nine countries combined. The next largest sources of imports are the United Arab Emirates and China, at 347,034 and 222,872 metric tons, respectively. The U.S. aluminium smelting industry is small by global standards. Total smelter capacity in the country was just 1.73% of the global total according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
