IN BRIEF: Tap Global confirms Moorwand as Tap Mastercard issuer

5th Oct 2026 14:25

Tap Global Group PLC - London-based digital finance platform providing cryptocurrency trading, payments and digital-asset services - appoints Moorwand Ltd as issuer and Bank Identification Number sponsor for a new multi-currency Tap Mastercard, replacing its existing euro-denominated card. The new card will allow customers to spend directly from currency balances held in the Tap app, rather than converting from euros at the point of sale. Moorwand already provides Tap's e-money accounts. Tap says the new card programme will support expansion into additional markets and generate revenue from card interchange and foreign exchange. Tap Global Chief Executive Officer Arsen Torosian comments: "A multi-currency card has been the feature requested most often by our customers, and this programme delivers it. It also gives us a stronger foundation for new payment features and expansion into additional markets over time. Card interchange and FX are operating revenue, so every card we put in a customer's hand earns for the group. This is the card our 400,000 customers should have." Read More

IN BRIEF: PGPE to seek wind-down after shareholder vote

5th Oct 2026 12:32

Partners Group Private Equity Ltd - Guernsey-registered investment trust managed by Partners Group AG - Says shareholders have elected 48.8 million shares combined, or over 74% of its issued share capital, for redesignation as realisation shares under its reorganisation proposal. Shareholders could choose to either continue their investment, thereby retaining exposure to the firm's existing investment strategy in all material respects; or to redesignate some or all of their shares as realisation ordinary shares. The latter option would mandate the realisation of existing investments in line with the ordinary course business plan for each investment, the return of available proceeds to the shareholders, and the non-participation in any new investments made by PGPE. As a result, PGPE says it will withdraw the reorganisation resolution at its extraordinary general meeting on Wednesday, and only submit the managed wind-down resolution for approval. If shareholders do not approve it, PGPE will continue to be managed in accordance with its current investment objective and policy, and the directors will reassess the options available. Read More
