Best Trending Finance UK

Week of 14 Sept 2026

Every Finance pick that made our daily top 3 this week, ranked by how many days it held its spot.

  1. Hackers impersonating a government agency accessed customer data at Europe's most valuable fintech, just months after it landed a UK banking licence. The story is dominating headlines and driving huge search interest in Revolut's security and account safety.

  2. The UK's most downloaded investing app let retail users trade crypto-linked ETNs without proper regulatory permission, sparking an FT-fuelled regulatory storm. As a long-time favourite among retail investors, the controversy is driving fresh waves of searches and sign-ups scrutiny.

  3. Monzo added a record 2 million customers in six months, cementing its place as the UK's largest digital bank, while a new Olivia Colman-fronted ad campaign keeps it firmly in the public eye. The dual growth-and-marketing story is fuelling strong consumer interest in switching banks.
