Join us on October 9th for the Global SME Finance Forum 2019 to access study visits to financial institutions and fintechs for the opportunity to learn best practices from highly respected peers.
Funding Circle is a global SME loans platform, connecting SMEs who want to borrow with investors who want to lend in the UK, US, Germany and the Netherlands. Since launching in 2010, investors have lent more than $10bn to 72,000 businesses globally. During this interactive study tour, we will take you on board the journey of how we connect small businesses with global capital pools, boosting economic growth and employment. We will look into market developments, the platformization of financial services as well as the increasing interest in the SME asset class.
(Priority access will be given to SME Finance Forum members and is on a first come first serve basis for non-members)
