London, UK and Tallinn, Estonia – 15 October 2025 – Creditstar Group, the European consumer finance and investment fintech, has secured an additional $10 million funding facility with Singapore-based Kilde, increasing the total to $20 million. The new funding reflects continued institutional confidence in Creditstar’s performance and governance.
The additional capital facility builds on the initial $10 million agreement signed in November 2024 and deepens the group’s relationship with the Singapore-based digital private credit investment firm, established over two years ago. The additional funds will support portfolio growth across Creditstar’s eight European lending markets as part of its broader funding diversification strategy, which includes bonds, institutional partnerships and retail investment offering.
In its audited 2024 results, Creditstar reported a net profit of €7.3 million, a gross loan portfolio of €351.2 million, and total assets of €367 million. By June 2025, the loan portfolio had grown to €406.8 million, representing a 30.6% year-on-year increase, underpinned by strong risk management, automation and data-driven underwriting. Since its founding in 2006, the Group has remained profitable through multiple economic cycles, completing nearly 50 bond issues on Baltic capital markets and returning over €100 million in interest to investors, with no defaults in its 18-year history.
“Kilde’s follow-on commitment is a clear validation of our credit quality and performance and broadens our institutional funding mix,” said Aaro Sosaar, Chief Executive Officer of Creditstar Group. “This additional capacity strengthens our capital efficiency and supports our plan to scale responsibly across regulated markets whilst maintaining diversified funding sources.”
“For more than two years, we have closely monitored Creditstar’s loan performance, credit metrics and management execution and see an established fintech with institutional-grade fundamentals,” commented Radek Jezbera, Co-Founder of Kilde. “The combination of strong growth, continuously improving profitability, scalable technology and disciplined risk management gives us confidence in the Group’s ability to deliver through market cycles. We’re backing a proven platform with a significant runway for geographic and product expansion.”
Creditstar provides consumer credit in eight European markets and has maintained profitability through multiple economic cycles since 2006. Its centralised risk management framework, supported by ML-driven underwriting across more than 1.4 million historical customer records, has delivered consistent credit quality.
The Group continues to expand both its consumer credit and investment platform. Monefit SmartSaver, its retail investment product available in 31 markets, has attracted more than €100 million since launch in 2022, providing cost-efficient funding that complements institutional partnerships. In addition, Creditstar completed its largest bond issuance to date in May 2025, raising €46 million across multiple tranches, underscoring continued investor demand.
