Mar 2016Series CInternational Finance Corporation (lead)$11M$285MThe March 2016 funding round was for Kreditech, a Germany-based online lending company, not Monedo as a separate entity. Monedo is a digital banking and loan platform developed by Kreditech to serve underbanked populations. The International Finance Corporation (IFC), part of the World Bank Group, invested $11 million to close Kreditech's Series C round of $103 million, bringing total funding to approximately $151 million. The round was led by J.C. Flowers & Co. and included investors such as PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, Amadeus Capital Partners, Värde Partners, HPE Growth Capital, and Blumberg Capital. Kreditech's post-money valuation for the Series C was stated as between €250 million and €300 million (approximately $279–$335 million). The funding was designated to expand Monedo's capabilities, including credit services and digital wallet functionality for underbanked customers across markets including Poland, Spain, the Czech Republic, Mexico, and Russia. Kreditech reported 2015 revenues of €41.3 million, representing 100% growth compared to 2014, though this revenue figure encompasses the entire Kreditech company rather than Monedo separately.
