Berenberg reiterates Buy rating on Wise stock, citing cost leadership

Investing.com - Berenberg has reiterated its Buy rating on Wise plc (LON:WISE) with a price target of GBP12.70, highlighting the company’s position as a cost leader in the cross-border payments industry.

The research firm views Wise as the "price setter" in a fragmented market where the company competes with traditional banks, money transfer operators, and other fintech services.

Berenberg notes that Wise currently holds less than 5% share of the consumer market and under 1% of the business market within an industry valued at approximately £32 trillion and growing at around 5% annually.

The firm expects Wise to continue gaining market share, citing its services as "materially cheaper and faster than legacy peers" while possessing infrastructure and scale advantages over other fintech competitors.

According to Berenberg, the combination of "high-quality infrastructure," a "price-reduction strategy," and "relative scale advantage" remains key to Wise’s ongoing success in the cross-border payments space.
