Abound, a UK-based fintech startup, has raised €0.9B in debt and equity funding.
The funding will be used to expand into prime lending in the UK and globally roll out their AI credit technology platform, Render.
Abound uses Open Banking and AI to provide borrowers with more affordable loans compared to traditional lenders.
Their proprietary AI technology, Render, analyzes bank transaction data to determine repayment capabilities, resulting in 75% fewer defaults than industry standard.
