Payabl. has appointed Lee Dunne to head of global banking.

Dunne joins from Lloyds Banking Group, where he was head of embedded finance from 2023 to 2025.

Prior to that, he was director of sales and strategic partnerships at Divido, a position he held for almost two years.

Between 2008 and 2019, Dunne also held senior positions focused on sales and partnership across several well-known firms, including financial services firm Retail Merchant Services, financial tech firm Worldplay, generation payment processing Paytaps Global, software development firm Digital River and Barclaycard.

In his new role, Dunne will focus on strengthening and expanding paybl.'s partnerships to boost product offering for businesses operating across global markets.

Last September, Payabl. introduced Business Accounts, a multi-currency Iban account designed to help businesses manage international transactions efficiently.

The accounts offer several features, including multi-currency IBANs, global payment rails including SWIFT and SEPA, personalised customer service and corporate debit cards.

Dunne said the recent expansion of business accounts will provide companies with the flexibility and tools they need to transact globally with ease.

“I look forward to working with the team to build on this success and further develop our financial solutions, with announcements on the near horizon,” he said.

In January, Marios Joannou, head of digital risk and privacy at payabl. said that the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) signals the end of the "move fast and break things" FinTech era that accelerated growth but often left critical resilience gaps, exposing institutions and markets to significant operational risks.
