Israel-based peer-to-peer lending startup Blender P2P Israel Ltd. has raised $16 million in equity and debt financing, the company announced Monday.
The lion’s share of the sum is a credit facility from Paris-based hedge fund Eiffel Investment Group S.A.S, Blender co-founder and CEO Gal Aviv said in a phone interview with Calcalist on Monday. San Francisco-headquartered early-stage venture capital firm Blumberg Capital participated in the round along with additional private investors.
