MeDirect Group has won the Digital Savings and Investing Platform Excellence Award 2026 (Europe).

This award, presented by Capital Finance International (CFI.co), recognises MeDirect’s continued success in delivering a secure, transparent and customer-focused digital banking and investment platform. It also recognises the group’s ability to translate its challenger bank model into tangible outcomes for customers, combining improved service with lower costs.

In its report, the CFI.co judging panel highlighted the continued growth in MeDirect’s client base and the strength of its financial position, supported by the recent investment from its new shareholder, Banka CREDITAS.

Judges also pointed to the group’s reinforced governance framework, including enhancements in risk management, compliance, data governance, platform security and fraud prevention, as key factors underpinning its performance.

Commenting on the award, Jean-Claude Maher, Group Chief Executive Officer of MeDirect, said: “This recognition reflects the progress we are making in delivering on our strategy to offer customers a secure, easy-to-use platform with access to high quality savings and investment solutions. Our focus remains on using technology and innovation to provide better service and value, while maintaining the highest standards of security, governance and risk management.”

He added that “MeDirect’s growth in both Malta and Belgium is principally fuelled by an affluent customer base that has long been overcharged and underserved within the predominantly traditional banking landscape. Our commitment to continuously enhancing our proposition and improving the customer experience is honouring the growing trust our clients place in our services.”

MeDirect operates as a Malta-anchored digital bank, serving retail customers in Malta and Belgium.

In Malta, the Bank also offers services through its branches in Sliema and Gozo, as well as a broad range of digital and in-person services to business customers.
