🗞 Morning everyone! Let's start a new week with DealStreetAsia's latest scoop on startup fundraising 💰: Digital bank and credit payment startup Finture has raised nearly $30 million in a Series B round to ramp up forays into new markets including #HongKong, #Vietnam, and the #Philippines in the next few years. Asia-focused MindWorks Capital, Finture's existing investor, led this pure-equity Series B financing. Participating investors include Beijing-based XVC, SWC Global, Richen Pioneer, and Antao Capital. #Singapore-based Finture, the operator of credit payment platform #YUP, secured the new financing five months after it began #fundraising in early March. Its #valuation doubled from about 12 months ago when the startup raised an XVC-led, $20-million Series Pre-B round. Dong Zhang and Tong (Gavin) Guo kindly shared with me details about Finture's fundraising success, new market plans, and their vision for the business, including a future #IPO.

Hot off the press from my Cliffwater colleague William Dornbrook: Startups on Sale: The Opportunity in VC Secondaries This paper outlines our perspectives on venture capital secondaries, an asset class at an important inflection point for future growth. Structural changes in private markets, a growing need for liquidity from LPs, and near-term headwinds in the IPO market have led to increased investor interest in VC Secondaries. Amid this backdrop of highly motivated sellers and improving metrics for startup quality, we believe VC Secondaries are priced attractively.
