"We're very happy to not have to raise every two to three years to keep the business alive," Matt Briers, TransferWise CFO told Business Insider in an interview. "It's a nice position to be in — we're not living hand-to-mouth, we're profitable, not solving for a short term valuation, and the most important thing for us and investors is a sustainable, durable business.

New investors D1 Capital Partners and existing shareholder Lone Pine Capital bought into the firm while existing shareholders Baillie Gifford, Fidelity Investments and LocalGlobe expanded their holdings in the fintech. Vulcan Capital also bought in. Investors view the company as ripe for a float, and it now has the freedom to choose when it goes public.
