Jiko’s Post

Stephane Lintner and Jiko doing innovation that solves for the old school banking constructs where consumers and businesses still get shortchanged (not getting market returns) and inspite the banking debacles (risking their bank deposits).

Jiko has secured $29 million in Series C funding led by Upfront Ventures, with participation from Airbus Ventures, Red River West, Radicle Impact Partners, and other investors. This latest funding will support Jiko's innovative T-bill platform, which provides corporate treasurers with seamless, secure, and programmatic access to treasury bills. The advisory committee now includes industry heavyweights like Jean-Luc Robert, Lawrence Summers, and Sheila Bair, underscoring Jiko's prominence in treasury management innovation.

San Francisco-based Jiko, a platform that allows users to invest in U.S. Treasury bills while maintaining liquidity, has secured $29 million in Series C funding. Upfront Ventures led the round, including Airbus Ventures, Red River West, and Radicle Impact participation. https://lnkd.in/gwqEfi75

Yann Robard, the founder of Dawson Partners (formerly Whitehorse Liquidity Partners), has been a pioneer in providing liquidity solutions for private equity stakes that are difficult to value and sell. Dawson Partners has grown by enabling institutions to quickly convert illiquid fund stakes into cash, becoming a significant player in the $1.2 trillion fund finance market. However, the strategy of adding more leverage to already debt-heavy investments is starting to show signs of strain. This approach, while innovative, is now facing challenges as the financial landscape evolves. https://lnkd.in/gkpQGJnZ

Parafin, a San Francisco, CA-based embedded finance infrastructure company, raised $100M in Series C funding at a $750M valuation. The round was led by Notable Capital, with participation from Redpoint. Existing investors Ribbit Capital, Thrive Capital, and GIC also participated. https://lnkd.in/gSdJgwr6

Interesting to read that Rede Partners LLP find a rise in confidence that distributions to LPs finally rebound - fingers crossed that this holds true. At the same time, LPs increase their allocation to secondaries funds as those can offer liquidity solutions to both LPs and GPs when traditional exit routes remain challenging. Should this increased allocation be seen as a hedge against a continued difficult exit market? Multiplicity Partners manages a range of shorter duration secondaries funds that focus on DPI and returning cash to investors - irrespective of the exit environment. #privateequity #privatemarkets #secondaries https://lnkd.in/eSh2f6Y3
