Commenting on the development, Nimbla chief commercial officer Elizabeth Jenkin said: “Nimbla has turned traditional trade credit insurance on its head with single invoice insurance; quote and bind in less than two minutes which significantly disrupts the traditional model.
“The partnership with Greenlight enables us to widen our reach geographically and build and distribute more complementary products, particularly during this challenging time for businesses. We recently added the ability to insure against credit risks in mainland Europe, responding to the demand from our customers. We have also launched our new API which enables funders to make ‘in the moment’ credit wrapped decisions.”
Nimbla’s API integration capabilities is said to help one to plug into various SME financing platforms, thereby enabling the firm to offer the immediate quote and bind of credit insurance at a single invoice level.
