In June, TrustBuddy launched a new generation IT platform and website. The new platform provides improved user experiences as well as increasing automation and improved operational efficiencies.
“The new system rollout caused increased costs and lower earnings in Q2. The new platform is now fully operational and weekly volumes for July has already passed the volume levels that prevailed before the system launch. TrustBuddy expects profitability to significantly improve in Q3 and Q4 as lending volumes increase”, say Jens Glasø, CEO.
Earlier this month TrustBuddy announced that an institutional fund has committed to deploy up to $ 40 million (SEK 270 million) to fund loans on the TrustBuddy platform, which is expected to drive lending volume growth.
The Interim Report Q2 is made public on the 21st of August, 2014.
