Small and medium enterprises are the backbone of our economy driving innovation jobs and growth yet many struggle to access the credit they need to thrive.  


In 2023, 24 percent of SMEs reported serious difficulties securing financing according to the European Investment Fund.  


Many are rejected before their applications reach a decision maker due to rigid eligibility criteria and limited data. Lengthy approval cycles stall opportunities causing businesses to miss time sensitive contracts investments or seasonal demands. Manual bottlenecks and paper-based processes create errors and delays while outdated technology and high servicing costs make legacy platforms inflexible and hard to scale.  


Regulatory requirements add complexity and slow delivery without the right systems in place. These obstacles are not just operational challenges they are barriers to growth.  


Reimagining SME lending as faster smarter and fairer gives businesses the support they need to grow succeed and drive the economy forward. 

SMEs are the backbone of the economy.



SMEs represent:


  • "... 99% of all businesses in the EU..."
  • "... over 2/3 of private sector employment..."
  • "...more than half of the region’s GDP ..."



The future is now...

From Existing Data to New Revenue

Make data work for you ...


Your data is more than records. It is an untapped growth engine, capable of revealing opportunities, anticipating client needs, and unlocking new revenue streams. 


  • Model impact with flexible simulations Test how changes in credit rules, eligibility criteria, or portfolio values affect SME demand and market response. This clarity helps you anticipate outcomes and maximise the revenue potential of your portfolio. 
  • Engage new clients proactively Predictive insights allow you to anticipate demand and reach prospects before your competitors do. 
  • Enable just-in-time decisioning Risk-informed pre-approvals empower your sales teams to respond quickly and with confidence. 
  • Deliver real-time leads to your commercial teams  CRM, web, and mobile channels become active engines of opportunity, turning insights into measurable action. 


With the right approach, data stops being a passive asset and becomes a catalyst for growth, speed, and smarter lending.
