Overview
OakNorth Holdings is the fastest company to achieve unicorn status in European history (30 months from inception). It is currently backed by the SoftBank Vision Fund, GIC (Singapore’s Sovereign Wealth Fund), and other investors including Coltrane, Clermont Group, NIBC, EDBI of Singapore, Toscafund, and Indiabulls.
With offices in London, Singapore, New York, Gurugram, Bangalore, and Shanghai, OakNorth’s mission is to enable small and medium-sized businesses to obtain the debt finance they need to grow. The OakNorth platform, which we developed to address this problem, is currently being used by a number of leading banks around the world, as well as by our own commercial bank in the UK.
Within the past 3 years, the platform has helped us grown our loan book size to over $2.2bn in the UK, with 0 credit losses to date. Globally, the platform has been deployed at various banks across North America, Europe, and Asia with $5bn of assets under management.
OakNorth was founded in 2015 by Rishi Khosla and Joel Perlman, who had also previously co-founded Copal Amba and grew it to 3,000 employees over 12 years, with multiple offices across the world including a 200- employee office in Beijing, before selling it to Moody’s (NYSE: MCO) in 2014, thereby returning 175 times capital to seed investors.
