Additional Info
The Chennai-based firm currently has over 1,500 corporates and more than 750 lenders facilitating loans worth over Rs 72,000 crore, he said. CredAvenue operates a platform that connects corporates seeking loans with financial institutions and other investors who can facilitate such debt offerings through various instruments. CredAvenue is not a non-banking financial company (NBFC), which means that the firm doesn’t lend on its own book, and merely facilitates these transactions for entities on its platform. “CredAvenue is a unique solution that not only simplifies access to credit for borrowers ranging from a BB to AA rating but also improves access to multiple debt products like bonds, supply chain financing, etc. on a single, unified platform,” Chopra said.
