The deal is Victory Park's debut transaction in Southeast Asia. It is also Kredivo's largest deal in its history with a credit provider and is one of the largest ever credit lines secured by any digital credit platform in the region.
The transaction represents a major milestone and breakthrough for the development of digital credit ecosystem in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, which has traditionally relied heavily on unsecured peer-to-peer lending models.
Lead partner Jean Woo commented, "We are delighted to help close a market leading financing for Victory Park in relation to its financing for Kredivo, a leading player in Indonesia's exciting tech and fintech ecosystem. The successful completion is a sign of the growing institutional appetite and interest in financing exciting fintech players in markets like Indonesia."
The Ashurst team was led by partner Jean Woo, supported by partners Rizaldy Tauhid and Michelle Phang, and lawyers Shen Mei Bolton, Jake Sng, Vanessa Teo and Chandra Setyabrata.
