Credi.com is about to launch its first equity crowdfund.

The platform is the worlds #1 platform for lending between related parties, formalising and managing informal loans, helping to tackle Australia’s rising debt often as a result of high-cost credit. It launched in 2017, which was perfect timing to offer a low-cost alternative to the high-interest loans on offer from credit cards and banks.

Each year, billions of dollars are lent between family, friends and colleagues globally. Until now there has been no affordable or easy way to formalise these informal loans.

Enter Credi.com – the first, efficient and cost-effective online solution that aids users in negotiating the key terms of a loan and helps with managing loan repayments.

Forget Startups: Why Magnetic Alliance is Betting on “Boring” Mid-Market Turnarounds

While Australia’s venture capital scene spent years chasing unprofitable tech startups and speculative high-growth plays, Mark Lim was quietly taking a radically different path. The Managing Partner of Magnetic Alliance Capital sees the nation’s richest investment opportunities hiding in plain sight: inside thousands of unglamorous, profitable, but operationally sluggish mid-market businesses. Speaking on Wholesale Investor’s […]

The asset class where the market has no vote

Litigation funding returns are decided in a courtroom, not a cycle. Knightsbridge’s Head of Capital is careful to call that a different risk rather than a lower one, and his answer to it is spread, not concentration. Most alternative assets still answer to something. Property answers to rates. Private credit answers to defaults. Even the […]

The listing fee vendors pay whether the house sells or not

Australia’s property portals collect more than $2 billion a year while national listings sit flat. An Australian-built AI platform is targeting the economics, not just the interface.
