- The largest crypto exchange in the Nordics, around 400,000 users, the kind of business banks are quick to de-risk.
- Multi-market customer deposits and withdrawals need scaled, reliable EUR rails, which is exactly Narvi’s account. MiCA register
- A new licence plus a new market is the moment a settlement-banking decision gets made.
Six companies that are ready for Narvi right now.
Each one got a new licence or a fresh raise in the last year, the moment a fast-growing fintech has to sort out real EU banking. These are exactly the companies traditional banks are slow to take and quick to drop. The names are real and the reason to call each one is public and linked. The deal sizes are estimates, and every assumption on this page is adjustable.
Why Narvi, and why now.
A whole category of good businesses cannot reliably get a bank account. Crypto exchanges, payment firms, marketplaces, anything a traditional bank decides is too much trouble, get slow onboarding or get dropped without warning, and Narvi is the licensed EU account that says yes. Reaching those companies the moment they need it, built in-house, is three roles, an analyst to find them, a BDR to book the meetings, and a head of business development to set the plan, which in Helsinki runs roughly €185,000 to €265,000 a year all in, before tooling and before anyone has ramped.
Private BD Agency was founded on the experience inside the GTM team that grew Glia into a $1 billion valuation, and we run business development the way that experience taught us, built around the goal that matters to you, the growth in your valuation.
We do that part, without the headcount. The most useful thing we can do first is be useful, so the work below is already done: six companies worth your time, each with the reason to call.
Europe’s crypto rules now force every serious crypto company to get licensed, and a fresh licence is the moment they build out their banking. The six below each got one, or raised, in the last year. They are where we would begin.
- One of Europe’s oldest crypto brokers, about 35% of the Finnish market, serving retail and corporate, and a Helsinki neighbour.
- Nordic expansion plus a possible IPO means real EUR business banking, audit-grade, across markets. M&A news
- On Narvi’s doorstep, and the easiest warm conversation on this page.
- A crypto payment gateway that settles merchant payments to fiat across the EU, so dependable SEPA and SWIFT payout banking is the whole business.
- Exactly the kind of cross-border payout flow that banks de-risk and Narvi is built to carry. CoinGate
- A fresh full licence is the cleanest reason to call.
- A B2B white-label crypto-to-fiat on and off-ramp with stablecoin payouts, an infrastructure business that needs EU settlement accounts.
- A licence is not a bank account, and Narvi is the operational EUR settlement layer underneath it. FinanceFeeds
- Newly licensed and expanding, the build-out moment.
- A listed Swedish crypto broker and custody provider with continuous EUR and SEK fiat flows.
- A de-risked sector with steady settlement volume, squarely in Narvi’s market. MiCA register
- Authorised and operating, ready for a better banking relationship.
- A trading and investment platform handling client funds across markets, which needs multi-currency settlement and EU rails.
- Fresh capital and a product scaling fast, the point at which banking gets formalised. Helsinki Fintech
- A Nordic scale-up squarely in Narvi’s reach.
Where it starts, and how far it goes.

01
The GTM Diagnostic
Step one is a read of your last twelve months that shows you what is working and worth more investment, what is quietly leaking, and how much of your growth is engineered rather than circumstantial, so the business-development decisions after it are sharper. It is yours to keep, and if we go further, the fee comes off your first month.

02
The Engine
We run your business development as part of your team, reaching the newly-licensed companies every month so the pipeline fills and the meetings land, and you never hire the three roles it would otherwise take.

03
The Pathway
After a strong first quarter, if there is a mutual fit, the retainer halves and we move onto an equity pathway, taking a stake so our own money rides on the same growth yours does. The full read on how the work carries into your valuation comes with it.
A strong next round and a strong valuation are built on business development that is well built and well directed. What you get is a funnel built around the goal that matters at the phase you are in, judged on the meetings it books. The thirty-day exit runs through the first ninety days, the quarter we use to earn your trust and prove the value. If you would rather own it in-house from day one, there is also The Transfer: ninety days where we build the motion with your team and hand it over.
What we would show you next.
These six are a sample. We have mapped more companies the same way, each one freshly licensed or freshly funded and checked against your customers, and the full set is yours in a conversation.
What decides a fintech’s next valuation is no longer the product, it is reach: companies stall on getting to market and getting outcompeted, rarely on engineering, and software that grows efficiently trades at roughly double the revenue multiple of the rest. The knowledge is based on experience from being part of a GTM team that grew Glia into a $1 billion valuation. We are not your finance team. We do not advise on your valuation; we build the distribution that defends it.
If this is useful, we would like to open a conversation about how we could best serve you.
