Equitivo partners with Brismo to provide investor due diligence services
FINTECH consultancy Equitivo has partnered with lending performance data provider Brismo to provide a loan investment due diligence solution for institutional investors.
The companies will together offer a quantitative and qualitative solution for fintech investors, using performance data, strategic insight and consultancy to assess loanbook performance.
The companies hope that the partnership will help shift the industry from self-reported performance, which makes it difficult for investors to compare risk and return on a like-for-like basis.
