Not Monzo, but I have a friend who works at a large global bank HQ in a mid-senior position.

They do remote desktop connection into their PC at the office. The work laptops given to them can't connect to anything but the PC in the office(so, it's merely a thin client). A fingerprint reader device connected through the USB port and a physical device for generating single use codes are used in addition to username/password.

At the start of the pandemic they used their own laptops to VPN into the work network and then connect to the remote desktop but not too much later they switched to complete solution.

I know this because I helped with troubleshooting connection issues. Does look quite secure to me, the only difference to an office environment security seems to be the possibility of an intruder to make an employee do something at a gunpoint.

I did some work for a Dutch bank a while back, they had a similar setup.

The lag from remote access (Citrix) drove me nuts!
