Our invoice purchasing and line of credit offer has already gained large popularity among the clients. We have also enjoyed successful cooperation with state institution Altum in Latvia by issuing 84 loans to businesses with subsidized terms. Also in 2016 we are planning to actively increase our issued loan volume by attracting venture capital and commercial bank financing. Our aim is to double the number and amount of loans issued. We have also made all of the necessary preparatory tasks to start working in Estonian market, where companies display similar interest in alternative financing sources to commercial bank loans,” explains manager of Capitalia Juris Grišins.
