Founded in 2012 by Furio, a Spanish former consultant, the fintech has specialized in loans secured by assets like homes, autos and salaries, credit lines shunned by Brazil's biggest lenders.Fidelity Management & Research LLC joined as the key investor of this round, along with Spanish fintech fund Actyus and Greentrail Capital. Existing investors such as SoftBank Vision Fund 1 and Wellington Management also invested.\"With collateralized lending they have taken on a complicated problem in a complicated market,\" said Will Pruett, managing director at Fidelity, in a statement.Furio added Creditas plans to use the proceeds mainly to expand its current portfolio of products.Creditas has grown at a fast pace. Its revenue reached 551.4 million reais in the first nine months of 2021, more than doubling from a year earlier, while its loans nearly tripled to 2.9 billion reais ($531.90 million). Still, it posted a loss of 215.8 million reais.($1 = 5.4522 reais)","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9090185385,"gmtCreate":1643119422803,"gmtModify":1676533775652,"author":{"id":"3573107359557183","authorId":"3573107359557183","name":"pin123","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00292bc4b19eb7c5d956c4d02afe5983","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3573107359557183","authorIdStr":"3573107359557183"},"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090185385","repostId":2206081839,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9090186424,"gmtCreate":1643119079423,"gmtModify":1676533775609,"author":{"id":"4104731478176330","authorId":"4104731478176330","name":"NoelDarkages","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/107f8e38299bc5dc67962827f8ab3f44","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b073a07f77dbe6b3bec6b12311fde6bd","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"4104731478176330","authorIdStr":"4104731478176330"},"htmlText":"Fingers crossed - lots of startup&nbsp;firms backed by SoftBank","listText":"Fingers crossed - lots of startup&nbsp;firms backed by SoftBank","text":"Fingers crossed - lots of startup firms backed by SoftBank","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090186424","repostId":2206081839,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9090188262,"gmtCreate":1643118575988,"gmtModify":1676533775572,"author":{"id":"3576278607547570","authorId":"3576278607547570","name":"Megaverse","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0bc7f9365fb6866c5d290efdfb79d160","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3576278607547570","authorIdStr":"3576278607547570"},"htmlText":"👌🏼 yea&nbsp;","listText":"👌🏼 yea&nbsp;","text":"👌🏼 yea","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090188262","repostId":2206081839,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9090180478,"gmtCreate":1643117142042,"gmtModify":1676533775453,"author":{"id":"3585475029155588","authorId":"3585475029155588","name":"seanisright","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c94b727cc0ec13751a68eaeb081dbb63","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3585475029155588","authorIdStr":"3585475029155588"},"htmlText":"another softbank welp","listText":"another softbank welp","text":"another softbank welp","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090180478","repostId":2206081839,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":39,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.2","shortVersion":"4.29.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2206081839"}
