Curql Fund I was originally planned to close at $150 million, but due to overwhelming response from interested credit unions and CUSO’s, the fund’s Limited Partners and management team raised the fund’s cap to just over $250 million to allow additional participation.
“The credit union industry was clearly ready for this type of opportunity,” said Nick Evens, President and CEO of Curql Collective. “With so many credit unions clamoring to invest in the fund right up to the end, we simply had to increase the size of the fund. It’s very telling of the appetite the credit union industry has for financial technology that can activate real change in how they interact with their members. At Curql Collective, we’re elated to see this coming together of like-minded credit union and fintech leaders – and we can’t wait to watch what happens for the industry.”
