Monument Bank, the bank for the mass affluent, has appointed Sunir Kapoor as an independent Non-Executive Director. Kapoor joined the board in July 2026 and sits on the Audit Committee. Kapoor spent six years as a Non-Executive Director of BBVA, where he served on the Technology Committee. He brings four decades of technology leadership from working across Europe and Silicon Valley, having founded and led multiple companies, taking one public and selling two to Fortune 500 acquirers. He is currently Non-Executive Chairman of Kibo Ventures, a board member of Aizon and LatticeFlow and a strategic advisor to HappyRobot.On his appointment Kapoor said: "What drew me to Monument is the market it has identified. It's building a bank for mass affluent customers with technology at the centre rather than bolted on afterwards. Having spent forty years in technology and six years on a global bank board, I've seen how hard that is to do the other way round. That's the perspective I hope to bring, from Silicon Valley and from BBVA".Fiona Pollard, Chair of Monument Bank, said: "Technology is what lets Monument be a better bank for this group. Sunir has done both jobs: he's built technology companies and he's sat on the board of a major European bank in an era of transformation. That combination is rare, and his guidance will help us move faster as we build out what Monument offers beyond savings".Monument has grown quickly since launching as a savings bank for mass affluent customers. Deloitte's UK Technology Fast 50 named it the fastest-growing fintech of 2025, and runner-up overall across all sectors, on revenue growth of 9,518%. The bank crossed £7 billion in client savings and 100,000 clients in the same year, and joined the Future Fifty cohort, the UK's programme for pre-IPO companies, in 2024.NoYesPeople Moves18 Aug, 2026
