Co-Founder
By simplifying the loan application process and enhancing access to capital, Kredit Hero empowers SMEs to achieve their business goals and drive economic growth in the Southeast Asian region. Kredit Hero Co-Founder Michel de Rijk tells Qorus’ Boris Plantier more about it.
What led to the creation of Kredit Hero?
Kredit Hero was born out of our team's personal experiences in the lending and banking industries across Southeast Asia. We've witnessed the struggles SMEs face when trying to secure funding and the difficulties lenders have in assessing risk. These challenges inspired us to create a smarter marketplace – one that not only connects SMEs with lenders but uses advanced analysis and risk scoring to make more informed matches. Our mission is to streamline the lending process, increase access to credit for businesses, and foster a more transparent and efficient lending ecosystem in the region.
