German digital bank N26 GmbH has raised money at a valuation of more than $9 billion, about the same as the market capitalization of Commerzbank AG, the country’s second-largest listed lender.

N26 finished a financing round of more than $900 million led by Third Point Ventures and Coatue Management and joined by Dragoneer Investment Group as well as existing investors, it said in a statement Monday. It was previously valued at $3.5 billion.
