Untangled Finance Launches Inaugural On-Chain Securitization Pool on Celo Blockchain

Untangled Finance Makes Waves with Inaugural On-Chain Securitization Pool on Celo Blockchain

Untangled Finance, a prominent real-world asset (RWA) protocol, has achieved a significant milestone by launching its first on-chain securitization pool on the Celo blockchain. This groundbreaking pool, structured under Luxembourg’s securitization laws, is set to revolutionize access to private credit opportunities for investors.

The pool, collateralized by a diverse portfolio of French working capital assets sourced from fintech Karmen, boasts a debt ceiling of $6 million. The initiative has already garnered support from The Credit Collective, with backing from Fasanara Capital as the senior lender. This move is part of a larger €100 million senior facility agreement with Karmen, underscoring the substantial support for the pool.

Untangled Finance’s co-founders, Manrui Tang and Quan Le, are committed to democratizing access to investment opportunities for DeFi investors globally while facilitating capital access for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). They emphasize the stability and reliability of high-quality private credit securities, particularly in enhancing the stability of stablecoins amid increasing adoption.

The platform, operational since 2020, tokenizes real-world collateral like invoices and SME loans, with access to over 140 fintech lenders. Following the launch of the Karmen token pool, Untangled Finance plans to introduce additional pools, including the Fasanara Diversified Fund on-chain and a senior note backed by Eastern European invoice finance assets.

Isha Varshney, Head of Ecosystem at the Celo Foundation, praised Untangled Finance for pioneering private credit tokenization, noting its potential to enhance access to funding and risk management for entrepreneurs and businesses worldwide. Despite its modest total value locked (TVL) of nearly $100 million, Celo was chosen as the platform of choice due to shared objectives in advancing RWAs and facilitating seamless transactions.

Manrui Tang highlighted Untangled’s multichain approach, with plans for deployment on other blockchain platforms in the future. She emphasized Celo’s appeal, citing recent developments like the native deployment of USDC and USDT, which facilitate investor transactions and contribute to the continued proliferation of RWAs.

Gabriel Thierry, co-founder & CEO of Karmen, stressed the importance of bridging decentralized and traditional finance sectors, enabling accelerated deployment of working capital loans for French SMBs.

Untangled Finance’s entry into on-chain securitization signifies a pivotal moment in the evolution of private credit opportunities, offering a transparent and accessible avenue for investors and SMEs alike.
