For the first time on Mintos, investors now have the opportunity to invest in loans in Swedish Krona, thanks to Aasa Group.
Aasa Group is the largest loan originator on the Mintos marketplace. Established in 2010, it is one of the top alternative lenders on the Polish and Finnish markets. Since its inception, Aasa Group has issued more than 523 000 loans worth EUR 516 million. The company started its operations in Sweden in May 2017, and issues loans through Aasa Kredit Svenska AB.
Aasa Group started placing loans from Sweden on Mintos in October 2017. The consumer loans , which were initially offered in euro (EUR), will now also be available in Swedish Krona (SEK). Swedish Krona is the seventh currency you can now invest in on Mintos.
