We’re going international and we’re going cheap…….
This week, the biggest shift in funded deals that emerged was the number of fintech deals that were international in origin. Of the eight we pulled from FinSMEs this past week (with five being published here), half were offshore. And again, nothing over $100M. F
Key Trends in This Week’s Fintech Fundings:
- Embedded Finance & Payments Platforms Take Center Stage – Sipay ($78M) and Haball ($52M) led the week with large rounds focused on embedded and supply chain payments.
- Credit Infrastructure & Liquidity Solutions Gain Momentum – Platforms like Turbine Finance ($13M) and Luzern Risk ($12M) highlight increased demand for data-driven credit and insurance innovations.
- Global Expansion in Underserved Markets – Emerging market players, such as Haball (Pakistan) and Sipay (Turkey), continue to attract institutional capital for digital infrastructure modernization.
