New design

The platform also got a fresher look, a more intuitive user interface, simplified tab structures, action buttons and a revamped document center.

Support

In order to be able to support you in the best possible way, we have introduced two new features: On one hand, you will find your direct contact person displayed on the start page. If you have any questions, you can always contact him or her via chat or call. On the other hand, there is a step-by-step assistant for the most important functions which should help you to get used to the new interface very quickly.

Specially interesting for borrowers: The portfolio

As of now, we offer our borrowers a portfolio. On one hand, you can see the most important facts about your previous financing requests at a glance (interest payment dates, expiration dates and volumes etc.), you can renew and find expiring loan tranches with just a few clicks. You can also add the loans closed outside of Loanboox, so that you have an overview about all your loans in your portfolio. On the other hand, you can find current market developments and interest rate overviews graphically displayed.

Specially interesting for investors: Investor profile and direct loans

Now you have the possibility to adjust your filter criteria in your investor profile according to maturity, currencies, segments, regions, etc. – so that they correspond exactly to what you are interested in and you will only be informed in case of matching requests. Loanboox has also launched a new product, direct loans. As an investor, you can reach a large number of borrowers in only one step and the borrowers can complete their offers in just two clicks; no tender, no effort, efficient for both contracting parties. For further information please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Recommendation for all our users: Do not use IE 11 anymore

If you are still working with the Internet Explorer 11 browser, we strongly recommend that you update it or use another browser. Otherwise, the platform will no longer work as desired. By the way, this helps you for many other programs, too, not only for Loanboox. 

Refresher needed or get started right away? 

Apart from these adjustments, there are many other new features you can discover on the platform.

Would you like to learn more about the new release? We are happy to explain the functionalities in detail in a webinar or you can test it yourself directly on the new platform.

Loanboox wishes you a Merry Christmas

…and a happy new year!

What a year! In spring we moved into our offices in Cologne, and a few weeks ago we officially launched in Germany – with success.

We look back on a packed and inspiring start-up year: innovative ideas were spun and implemented, motivating client encounters whether live or over the phone were experienced, 100 active users were welcomed, convivial team evenings were spent, diaries were filled, over 600 million euros in financing requests were received, gripping media reports were made and interesting events were attended.

We wish you wonderful holidays and a good start into the new year!

Kind regards, Your Loanboox Team

White paper on municipal finance

by | Feb 14, 2020 | Borrow, Invest

White paper on municipal finance

Digital municipal finance: advantages through the use of a digital platform

The procurement of loans by local authorities, special-purpose associations and their own and public enterprises is characterised by traditionally grown analogue structures. Up to now, the financial requirements of the municipalities have been transmitted manually by email, fax or telephone to a few, regionally connected financial institutions, and the most economical offer is selected from the individual offers. The process is inefficient and non-transparent.

FinTechs like Loanboox simplify the municipal loan procurement process with their online-based financing platforms. Learn in our whitepaper how you can use digital platforms to find the ideal finance partner for your financing.

The following questions are answered in the whitepaper:

    • How does a digital funding tender work??

 

    • What added value do platforms offer municipalities?

 

    • What should be considered with regard to volumes and maturities?

 

    • What documents do I need for financing?

 

 

Are you interested in the white paper?

Please send us an email with your contact details to info@loanboox.de. We will then send you the whitepaper as soon as possible.

New release is live!

New release: Chat feature, non-binding offers, information on partner services and many other features.

In countless contacts with customers and partners, we receive valuable input on how we can further develop Loanboox and make it even more user-friendly. We thank you very much for that. The implementation of these customer needs was also the focus in this release, among others, the following features were newly implemented:

  • Chat function on the platform: To ensure an even more uncomplicated exchange, direct communication among all platform participants is now possible.
  • Spread-based fixed interest rate offers: In order to better take into account longer decision-making processes and non-binding offers, financing based on a reference interest rate (e.g. the ICAP Midswap) plus spread are made possible. The reference interest rate can be defined in advance so that only the spread has to be specified when an offer is made.
  • Disbursement period:The borrower may request a period of gradual disbursement of his credit, depending on his needs. Thus, this disbursement period provides flexibility as it allows the loan to be used according to the progress of the investment program. Loanboox offers the possibility to request a revolving capacity on this disbursement period, to better manage the borrower’s cash flow.
  • Non-binding offers: It is now possible that investors can offer non-binding offers to better respond to the borrowers’ expectations. This option allows for more competitive offers, thus avoiding the borrower having to pay the cost for interest rate risks.
  • Information about partner services: To offer you the best service, we work with more and more partners. So that you do not lose the overview, the partner services are now clearly displayed in a list.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to working with you in the future to make debt capital markets more accessible, efficient and transparent.
