Our take
Many Americans with below average credit scores are caught in a bind: they're unable to improve their score, and simultaneously cannot access traditional loans. Avant's alternative is to offer credit options that are based on machine learning and a large database to manage their risk. The business has issued over $8 billion in loans to date.
The company offers a quick credit decision and speedy access to any allotted funds. It paired up with Zero Financial in 2021, expanding its business to the digital banking space. It plans to offer a whole suite of products in a single platform, such as loans, credit cards, and deposits.
Many fintechs are looking at ways to remove the traditional barriers that people with low credit scores face when trying to take out loans. Avant is not alone in this space, but by expanding its offering to banking products as well, it has increased its customer appeal and its reach. The company has recently received a large investment from Ares Management Alternative Credit Funds, enabling it to expand its credit portfolio and further develop its platform.
