RIYADH: Colombian fintech startup Addi has raised a $200 million funding round led by Softbank and GIC to help fuel an expansion in Latin America.

In order to pursue its goal of a five-fold growth increase next year, Addi plans to expand to other markets, in addition to Brazil and Mexico.

The round included an additional $125 million in debt financing, most of which came from Goldman Sachs Group, it said.
