Today, SMEs account for more than 41% of Vietnam’s GDP ($261.64 billion - nominal, 2019 est.), and 98% of all enterprises but still remain largely neglected by traditional banks with 70% of them do not have access or have difficulty in accessing credit. eLoan was launched in late 2017 with a clear mission - to make credit more simple and investing more rewarding. eLoan’s total revenues for FY2019 increased by 338% compared to FY2018. Despite the global uncertainties around COVID-19, it is still projected to exceed last year’s performance.
Tan Tran, CEO of Vemanti Group, who is also Fvndit’s CEO, stated, “We’re hugely excited about the new capital injection and very optimistic about future prospects of Fvndit and eLoan. We see a $100B market, and there is a huge unmet credit demand. Already a market-leader and one of the first movers, the additional capital will strengthen our position as the de facto SME financing platform in Vietnam and allow us to increase diversification of products. We’re thrilled to be a part of a fast-growing company in one of the world’s hottest economies.”
