Cedar-IBSi Capital to fund 10-15 startups in fintech sector
Cedar-IBSi Capital on Saturday said it is looking to invest in 10-15 startups working in the banking and insurance technology segment to expand its footprint in the country. «The fund plans to build a portfolio of the companies, allocating a budget within the range of Rs 4-10 crore, with an intensified focus on financially strengthening 8 to 10 high-performing companies,» it said.
The fund has already gathered commitments in the range of Rs 50-75 crore from its Rs 240 crore early-stage fund launched in 2023, it added.
«We are focusing on investing in startups which offer unique products and innovative tech to help improve efficiency at financial institutions. We have made our first investment in Cogniquest, an intelligent document processing tech company and are looking forward to announcing our second investment shortly,» Sahil Anand, Founder and Managing Partner, Cedar-IBSi Capital, said.
The business-to-consumer disruption has taken place in the last 5-8 years, but the software and core infrastructure of banks, insurance companies, and other players remain outdated and old-fashioned, he added.
«We will aim to fill the gap in this space,» he said.
