9fin Raises £8M Series A to Expand its Debt Capital Markets Intelligence Platform to the US

 

9fin, a leading provider of data, news and predictive analytics for debt capital markets, has today announced an £8M Series A round to fuel its expansion into the US. The company is opening a New York office following increased demand from existing customers in Europe.

The latest investment was led by Redalpine, alongside previous investors in the company, Fly Ventures. Angel investors Paul Forster, Co-Founder of Indeed, and Alan Morgan, Co-Founder of MMC Ventures, also participated along with Ilavska Vuillermoz Capital and a number of high net worth individuals. To date 9fin has secured over £10M in funding, including backing from Seedcamp and AI Seed Fund.

Co-founded by Steven Hunter and Hussam El-Sheikh, long-time friends from University, 9fin was created to provide faster, smarter intelligence for the debt capital markets community. The inspiration for the venture came from the founders’ extensive industry experience of working within investment banking and financial technology respectively.

Steven Hunter, Co-Founder and CEO of 9fin, commented, “Debt capital markets is the world’s largest asset class, but it operates using the worst quality data, information, and technology. Many companies in this space aren’t large listed businesses, they’re privately owned, that means important information about them isn’t readily or easily available.

When I worked in banking and asset management, I felt like I’d been teleported back 40 years in terms of the data and technology our market used. Finding simple things like earnings, price sensitive news flow, and key offering documents was incredibly painful. 9fin was created to fix that.”

Hunter continued, “We’re delighted to have the backing of new and existing investors in this round. The Redalpine team has a very strong track record of FinTech investments. We’re excited to welcome Aleksandra to our board, lending her capital markets and operational expertise to our team. In the last year we’ve used our analytics to predict multi-billion dollar deals, saved analysts hours of manual data extraction and allowed funds to spot lucrative trading opportunities. This fundraise will allow us to rapidly scale and bring similar benefits to new customers, asset classes and geographies.”

9fin’s tech platform uses machine learning and computer vision to extract and standardise debt capital markets data in real time. The company’s predictive analytics helps its customers save time, spot trading opportunities and increase their share of the $65bn of debt capital markets fees earned by advisors each year.

Within the last year, the company has quadrupled its number of clients, tripled the size of its team and partnered with the European Leveraged Finance Association on legal data and analytics.

The Series A investment will be used to expand into the US market, with the company opening a New York-based office following strong client demand. Initial hiring in New York will focus on content, analytics and business operations. 9fin is also hiring across its sales, marketing, product and engineering teams. It expects to double its current team of 30 people before the end of the year.

Aleksandra Laska, Partner at Redalpine, added “We are delighted to back Steven and Huss, they’re an incredibly driven team who have the ambition, network, and know-how to turn 9fin into a massive business. They have deep industry expertise in debt capital markets and have experienced the pain of poor-quality information first hand. Faster, better quality data has huge value within this space. Whether that’s predictive analytics to spot new business opportunities or freeing up an analyst team’s time through automating the manual collection of data.”

Laska continued, “As well as a very impressive product offering, the team has built powerful customer relationships with the largest financial institutions in the world. We’re excited to support them as they grow in the US market.”

family-offices-are-active-and-optimistic-investors-in-venture-capital,-according-to-svb-capital-and-campden-wealth-report

Family Offices Are Active and Optimistic Investors in Venture Capital, According to SVB Capital and Campden Wealth Report

 

SVB Capital, the global venture capital investment arm of SVB Financial Group (NASDAQ: SIVB), today released “Family Offices Investing in Venture Capital – 2021-2022,” a four-part report developed in partnership with Campden Wealth. Part one, entitled, “A Roadmap to VC Success,” looks at the venture investing maturity model, investment structures and how venture deals are sourced. The report also includes lessons learned and tips from experienced family offices to those just starting out in the asset class.

Within SVB Capital, the Family Office Practice works with qualified family offices to provide curated access to private investment opportunities both within SVB Capital and with fund managers and venture-backed companies. SVB LIFT, SVB Capital’s invite-only platform connects LPs to a curated set of venture funds. If interested, please contact Shailesh Sachdeva for more information.

“We are incredibly excited to share the findings of our 2nd annual ‘Family Offices Investing in Venture Capital’ report,” said Barry O’Brien, Head of the Family Office Practice at SVB Capital. “Our team has had conversations with hundreds of family offices around the globe, helping them access the venture ecosystem through Fund of Funds, direct VC funds or directly into world class startups. The key observation from those conversations, further validated by this year’s report, is that most family offices follow a similar path when investing in venture. Most start by investing in fund of funds to gain access to established (and often access-constrained) venture funds, while also making ad-hoc investments based on recommendations by friends and other family offices, and finally invest directly into venture funds and startups.

“With so many exciting and potentially transformative technological innovations occurring – in blockchain, AI, machine learning, the Internet of Things, and so on – it is quite understandable that venture investment continues to set records around the world,” said Dominic Samuleson, CEO of Campden Wealth. “Family offices are becoming increasingly sophisticated VC investors – developing their networks and building in-house expertise – and their VC investments are growing, quickly. I am delighted that we have been able to, once again, collect this highly scarce information from our global network of experienced families to support newer entrants.”

Global findings

Following are the key findings from SVB Capital and Campden Wealth’s global report, which surveyed 139 representatives of ultra-high net worth (UHNW) families and family offices with experience in innovation and venture capital investing between June and September 2021. Participants represented family offices in offices in North AmericaEuropeAsia-PacificLatin America and the Middle East. In addition to the survey, in-depth follow on interviews were conducted with 10 family office representatives. The responding single-family offices had an average of $989 million assets under management (AUM) and the responding multi-family offices had an average of $1.9 billion AUM. The full report is available at https://www.fa-mag.com/news/family-offices-raise-bets-on-start-ups-in–418-billion-market-64301.html.

Family offices progress through a similar path in their venture capital investing journey
Although every family office is unique, their venture investing journeys are similar. Most start investing in fund of funds, then venture funds, and finally directly into startups.

Family office participation in venture continues to increase
Startups are increasingly open to direct investments from family offices, alongside venture funds. Family offices, in turn, are investing strategic capital, adding value based on their operating businesses and network connections. The average family office venture portfolio comprises 17 direct investments and 10 fund investments, and within the next 24 months, family offices expect to make 18 new investments.

Sixty-seven percent of family offices rely on their existing network for deal flow
The best venture deals continue to be hard to access. Most family offices rely on their existing networks, GPs of venture funds, founders, and other family offices for deal flow. Only 1% currently use digital platforms, such as SVB LIFT.

Family offices are focused on growth and cross-sector
Investments tend to be focused on growth investments, representing 48% of the venture portfolio, followed by 28% in pre-seed and seed investments and 24% in Series A investments.

18% of FOs have venture investments in Life Sciences, e.g., biopharma, drug discovery, medical devices, diagnostics, etc. Energy & Resource Innovation, including climate and sustainability, is an increasing area of focus.

Family office staff and VC teams are growing, but top talent is in short supply
Today the average family office staff consists of 15 members, including two VC investment professionals, with plans to bring in one additional investment specialist within the next five years. However, talent remains scarce and competition is fierce for top talent.

Cola Group to invest $14.5M to accelerate Cola.bet expansion strategy

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Cola Group, a world-class games and entertainment specialist, is expanding the iGaming arm of its company, Cola.bet, with a $14.5m investment.

This substantial investment follows on the back of Cola.bet securing a fourth African gambling license in the continent’s second largest gambling market, Nigeria. This new addition adds to Cola.bet’s current stable of highly successful African operations; Zambia (cola.com.zm), Kenya (cola.ke) and Ethiopia (cola.et).

This latest sports betting license was granted by the Lagos State Lotteries Board to a locally incorporated, Cola.bet subsidiary company, Cola Games Limited. The Nigerian market is similar to Ethiopia’s in that both are very retail centric rather than internet based. It was a strategic move for Cola.bet to leverage its blueprint and successes in Ethiopia to successfully expand into Nigeria.

The betting operator delivers a modern, mobile-first proprietary platform tailored for both established and fast-developing markets. The Cola.bet platform is easily adjustable, customisable and provides seamless integrations. All local payment methods are also integrated onto the platform where partners can find a vast selection of sports events, esports and casino games. To further support Cola Group’s partners there is a complete consulting service, including a licensing brokerage, that provides access to localised knowledge and best practice in each operating region.

As Cola.bet continues to expand its sports betting and iGaming offering, responsible gaming remains a core focus. Cola.bet excels at providing resources to enable customers to enjoy gaming responsibly. Aside from aforementioned licenses, Cola.bet also holds a Curaçao gambling license and is in the process of obtaining licenses in the regulated markets of Africa, LATAM and Europe. This will facilitate the expansion plans of the company.

Dinu Bors, Cola.bet’s COO said: “Cola.bet delivers an exceptional customer-first experience and the launch augments our global ambitions within the iGaming space. The platform is highly customisable and grants B2B partners instant access to curated content for a plethora of markets. We’ll be rolling-out several innovative features over the coming months, we’re only just getting started.”

Dana Varnytska, Cola.bet’s CMO followed: “Our strategy is built on a localised programme which has been developed through thorough research into market nuances and player preference. Players will benefit from bespoke bonus promotions and extremely competitive odds on the most popular events”.

Wong has also held leadership positions with Macquarie Capital’s Greater China real estate investment banking division, UBS’s Greater China and Asia banking team, and Credit Suisse’s investment banking division.

Joe Morris will take on responsibility for investor groups across the Middle East region. Based in Dubai, Morris brings over 18 years’ experience in real estate capital markets across all major real estate sectors in both buy-and-sell-side roles and has worked on over $10 billion of completed transactions. During his career, Morris has provided coverage of sovereign, institutional and private capital sources across the Middle East, including as a Partner at Knight Frank and Head of MENA Capital Markets, responsible for both regional and international investment on behalf of a Middle East investor base.

“I’m excited to welcome Fred and Joe to the dedicated ICM team after what has been an extremely active year for our platform,” said Foshay. “Our team has done an excellent job navigating the challenges of the pandemic to execute complex transactions, as non-domestic investors seek opportunities to capture today’s low hedging costs, favorable financing and attractive levered returns in the U.S. market. With their breadth of experience and expansive regional networks, I’m confident that Fred and Joe will provide immediate value to our growing stable of clients.”

coated-steel-market-valuation-would-exceed-usd-65-billion-by-2027,-says-global-market-insights-inc.

Coated Steel Market valuation would exceed USD 65 billion by 2027, says Global Market Insights Inc.

 

As per the latest report by Global Market Insights Inc., the Coated Steel Market was estimated at $50 billion in 2020 and is slated to exceed USD 65 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 4.4% from 2021 to 2027. The report offers an in-depth analysis of major investment pockets, market size & estimations, wavering market trends, drivers & opportunities, competitive scenario, and top winning strategies.

Coated steel products have gained prominence across varied applications, which has supported the growth of the industry in key regions across the globe. Technological advancements in the coated steel manufacturing process have helped reduce production time, lowering the overall costs. Manufacturers in the sector are engaging and investing in R&D projects to develop cost-efficient coated steel using different composite materials that are highly effective in wide-ranging applications. Several benefits of the product, such as improved superior strength, durability, resilience, and corrosion resistance, are projected to boost the revenue growth of the coated steel market over the forecast period. Moreover, increased availability and versatility of coated products are speculated to further drive industry expansion in the coming years.

Organic coated steel typically comprises a steel substrate with surface treatment layer, paint primer coating, and topcoat. Surging utilization of these products in appliance applications is likely to fuel segmental growth through the review period. In 2020, the organic coated steel segment was valued at around USD 8 billion and is estimated to deliver steady growth over the assessment timeframe.

Key reasons for coated steel market growth:

  1. Rising number of new housing and commercial building constructions.
  2. Soaring product adoption in home appliances.
  3. Mounting product uptake in automotive and construction industries.
  4. Surging emphasis on R&D to develop cost-efficient products.

2027 forecasts show Europe’s construction sector retaining its dominance:

In terms of region, Europe accounted for more than 45% of the coated steel market in 2020 and is slated to observe profitable growth over 2021-2027. In 2020, the demand for coated steel in Europe was adversely affected, mainly due to increasing COVID-19 cases and lockdown restrictions imposed in the region. However, growing focus on infrastructure development and construction activities in Germany, the UK, and Russia, has played a vital role in enhancing the coated steel market sales in the region.

Asia Pacific to maintain top status with respect to revenue:

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the global coated steel industry. The COVID-19 pandemic pushed stringent lockdowns in the region and caused massive losses on account of manufacturing units shutting down, thereby negatively impacting the coated steel demand in APAC in 2020. However, key countries in the region, including JapanIndia, and China, contributed substantially to product demand in the region in 2020. Moreover, technological innovation and development, along with the booming industrial sector in APAC, are slated to facilitate market growth.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on coated steel market:

The COVID-19 outbreak brought building & construction projects to a halt owing to the stringent lockdown restrictions prevalent worldwide. This led to a decline in the demand for coated steel during the pandemic. However, with successful vaccination drives across the globe and increased emphasis of governments on post-COVID economic recovery, the market has been regaining its pre-pandemic momentum. Furthermore, the ongoing pandemic has also promoted product development to tackle the novel coronavirus.

For instance, in March 2021, Dongkuk Steel Mill Co., a South Korean steelmaker, introduced its improved Luxteel Bio – South Korea’s first anti-bacteria coated steel sheet that claims to destroy 99.9% of coronavirus agents in 30 minutes. As a result, product innovation has played a vital role in bolstering business growth during the pandemic.

Leading market players:

Prominent companies in the coated steel industry include ArcelorMittal, POSCO, Essar Steel, JFE Steel Corporation, Voestalpine AG, Nippon Steel Corporation, Kobe Steel Ltd, Baosteel Group, OJSC Novolipetsk Steel, SSAB AB, ChinaSteel, Severstal, JSW, Nucor, and Tata Steel, among others. They have incorporated several strategies including partnership, expansion, collaboration, joint ventures, and others to heighten their stand in the industry.

Gaming Apps Block Access in Karnataka as Ban Takes Effect

Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

Gaming apps have blocked user access in Karnataka after the state imposed a ban on online betting games.

Sequoia Capital-funded Mobile Premier League (MPL) was among the first few gaming startups that began blocking access to users in the Indian state of Karnataka on Wednesday following a ban on online gaming.

On Wednesday morning, MPL’s gaming app showed messages to users in Karnataka that said: “Sorry! The law in your state does not permit you to play Fantasy sports”, “Fantasy games are locked” and “cash games are locked”.

The law, which came into effect last Tuesday, bans online games involving betting and wagering, and “any act or risking money, or otherwise on the unknown result of an event including on a game of skill”.

The latest ban has intensified concerns that growing state regulations could hit the nascent but booming gaming sector in India, where foreign investors have pumped in millions of dollars in recent months.

Wild Harlequin is the latest addition to the Quickspin slot portfolio, combining a clean and simple math model with an intriguing character inspired by the Italian commedia dell’arte theatre.

“We’ve removed the scatter symbols entirely, so this game fuses the simplicity of classic Starburst-like games with the volatility and high maximum wins of modern games,” the company said.

“By reducing everything down to a single mechanic and letting that drive the entire math model, we’ve created a game that offers an alluring simplicity as well as unpredictable and exciting gameplay.

“Thanks to the initial simplicity and generous nature of the base game, it’s perfect for introducing fresh players to slot games and the remarkably high volatility will attract hard-core players.”

Wild Harlequin is a 5×3 slot with 10 lines, featuring stacked nudging wilds and a free spins bonus with multipliers. The Wild Harlequin symbol appears on all reels, substitutes for all symbols and always nudges to cover the reels.

And in the free spins bonus, all triggering reels become Magic Reels, building up huge multipliers and awarding extra free spins along the way.
