Credix, a decentralized credit marketplace that links institutional investors with fintech lenders in emerging markets, has successfully raised $11.25 million in a Series A funding round led by Motive Partners and ParaFi Capital.
The platform connects hedge funds and alternative asset managers with credit fintechs and non-bank loan originators. Financing is facilitated on-chain through the USDC stablecoin and smart contracts, which Credix claims enhances efficiency, settlement speed, and transparency.
According to the startup, this approach enables investors to access new risk-adjusted returns while allowing borrowers to secure international debt funding more easily and at competitive rates. Currently operating in Brazil, Credix plans to expand into additional markets and will allocate the new funding towards platform development, team expansion, and integration with Web3 projects.
