About Us

Starling is a completely different kind of bank disrupting the financial services industry. Founded in 2014 by Anne Boden, former chief operating officer of Allied Irish Banks, it was granted a banking licence by the Bank of England in July 2016 and launched its first mobile personal current account in May 2017 available as a mobile app for both iOS and Android phones. It followed this with the UK’s first digital-only business bank account in March 2018. Based in London, Starling received £48 million ($70 million) of investment at the beginning of 2016.
