The license marks a key step for Nu to increase competition in the highly concentrated Mexican banking market
Nu Mexico, a subsidiary of Nubank, announced today the approval of its banking license by the National Banking and Securities Commission (CNBV). With this milestone, Nu has become the first Popular Financial Society (SOFIPO) to obtain approval to transform into a bank, opening the path to increased competition in the Mexican financial sector. This milestone brings the company closer to expanding its product portfolio, including the introduction of a payroll account, a key opportunity to increase financial inclusion in Mexico where only 36% of adults have this financial instrument (National Financial Inclusion Survey, 2024), with 90% concentrated in just four banks.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure.
