4FINANCE
4finance Holding S.A. (“4finance” or the “Group”), one of Europe’s largest online and mobile consumer lending groups, is pleased to announce a strong start to its new operations in Romania, with over 2,500 loans made within just two months of beginning operations there in mid-June.
This achievement marks the latest milestone in the rapid geographic expansion of 4finance, a company at the forefront of data-driven, customer-centric financial technology. The Group is meeting the growing demand amongst Romanian customers for convenient access to loans. Zaplo.ro, 4finance’s brand in Romania, has seen over 50,000 unique visits to its website in the first two months alone.
4finance sees substantial opportunity for further growth in Romania, where traditional banking and consumer lending practices are significantly out of step with its highly internet-enabled, and increasingly on mobile, population of some 20 million. Supported by a developing market economy and a growing consumer finance market, 4finance - as an established player of scale in Europe - has significant competitive advantage in the region and is well placed to meet this demand.
Kieran Donnelly, CEO of 4finance, said:
“We are excited to have launched Zaplo.ro in Romania. Romania has a growing economy with a dynamic and under-served population – exactly the sort of customer base that 4finance is set up to support.
“What we are achieving in Romania reflects our vision for 4finance worldwide – to become a global leader in consumer finance, using data and digital technology to meet our customers’ requirements quickly and responsibly.”
