Valencia, 04th August 2026 – Moneycorp’s expansion, supported by Invest in Valencia, is one of 16 new international companies that have chosen the city in the first half of the year, representing a combined investment of more than €35 million.
Paula Llobet highlights that the arrival of the British company confirms “the confidence that Valencia inspires among global financial firms and its ability to attract high-value investment.”
Moneycorp, a global specialist in international payments, foreign exchange solutions, and currency risk management, has established a new office in Valencia. As part of its growth strategy in the Spanish market. Supported by Invest in Valencia, the new office strengthens the company’s presence in Spain and further consolidates Valencia as an attractive destination for international financial services companies.
Paula Llobet, Councillor for Tourism, Innovation and Investment, stated that the arrival of Moneycorp, a company with more than 47 years of international experience, is further evidence of the confidence that Valencia inspires among global financial firms.
“We do not compete on cost alone; we offer a secure, innovative ecosystem and an exceptional quality of life for companies looking to establish operational headquarters and business centres.”
She said.
The new office will serve both businesses and individuals engaged in international activities. Offering cross-border payment solutions, multi-currency accounts, foreign exchange risk management, and tools designed to facilitate international transactions. With more than 47 years of experience, Moneycorp works with businesses of all sizes. To optimise their international operations and support their expansion into new markets.
Valencia was selected thanks to the city’s growing international profile, its ability to attract foreign investment, and the development of an increasingly global business ecosystem. Moneycorp joins a dynamic environment that brings together technology companies, financial institutions, and advanced business services, alongside a growing international real estate market.
One of 16 Companies in a Historic First Half of the Year
Moneycorp’s arrival forms part of the strongest six-month period for investment attraction in the city’s recent history. Between January and June 2026, Invest in Valencia—the investment promotion office created by Valencia City Council in collaboration with the Valencia Chamber of Commerce—supported the establishment of 16 new international companies. Representing an estimated investment of more than €35 million.
“Every euro invested in Valencia creates real opportunities, generates wealth across our neighbourhoods and, above all, creates highly skilled jobs for our young people.”
Said Llobet. She also noted that, with these latest results, Invest in Valencia has now surpassed the historic milestone of €400 million in investment attracted since its creation. Supporting a total of 93 companies from 29 countries and generating more than 4,000 direct jobs across the city.
Comprehensive Support from Initial Contact to Business Launch
Throughout the establishment process, Invest in Valencia advised Moneycorp in identifying suitable office space and helped define an expansion model aligned with the company’s growth plans in Spain. This support is delivered through two complementary services. The Softlanding Programme, which streamlines administrative and real estate procedures, and the Aftercare Service, which supports companies once established. Helping them integrate into the local ecosystem and continue growing.
“We support investors from the moment they first express interest until they open their offices in Valencia. We provide legal certainty, close support and a stable business environment so they can continue growing alongside us,”
added Llobet.
As part of this collaboration, the two organisations co-hosted an Empower Forum event at the beginning of 2026. Focused on international taxation and cross-border payments. The event brought together companies and financial professionals to discuss the challenges of international transactions and global financial management.
Highly Skilled Employment and Long-Term Commitment to Spain
Over the next two years, Moneycorp plans to recruit new specialists in business development and senior management positions. Reinforcing its long-term commitment to the Spanish market while contributing to the creation of highly qualified employment.
The company’s arrival strengthens Valencia’s international business ecosystem and reinforces the work carried out by Invest in Valencia to attract high-value investment, support the establishment of international companies, and position the city as a leading European business and investment hub.
“We want Valencia to become the leading capital of Southern Europe for entrepreneurship and innovation. Companies like Moneycorp show that this ambition is already becoming a reality.”
Concluded Paula Llobet.
