cosmofunding concludes first real estate secured financing transaction via an online platform

Real estate financing is characterized by digitalization and the low interest rate environment. Standardised processes can reduce complexity and make new financing possible at significantly lower prices. This is made possible by Vontobel's cosmofunding platform, which has been online for a year now.

A private placement with a term of just one month was recently realised via cosmofunding, thus taking advantage of the low interest rate environment. This innovation opens up a new possibility for financing real estate in Switzerland. In addition, various offers can be obtained and compared quickly and easily.

cosmofunding digitizes the raising of capital

cosmofunding is digitizing the market for financing between the public sector and private companies on the one hand, and institutional investors on the other. Tailored requests for borrowing can be individually structured, and the terms and volumes can be freely selected. The platform is continuously being developed, as demonstrated by the expansion of the product range to include this latest option.

With cosmofunding, we are revolutionizing the mortgage market for institutional property owners and – through securitization and by directly passing on low interest rates – are creating massive value for our clients and thus showcasing our innovative strength. With an estimated volume of more than CHF 600 billion of outstanding mortgages from institutional companies, cosmofunding has significant potential,” stated Fredy R. Flury, Head Risk Management FIRC Investment Banking. Please contact us if you are also interested in this form of financing
