With reference to notification from 2021-09-02 regarding a one-year pilot agreement with DNB, the cooperation is now concluded. The initiative to run tests and experiments to learn more about how to best serve small businesses and their financing needs ends this year.

The offering will be removed from DNB’s web properties on 31 December, and the final date of the cooperation will be 21 February 2023 when Aprila no longer will onboard further customers via DNB.

The learnings from the initiative have been satisfactory. However the financial impact is small for both Aprila and DNB. The initiative resulted in 139 credit line customers which originated from DNB, with a total lending balance in Aprila of NOK 15 million, corresponding to ~2% of Aprila’s total customer base and lending balance.

Aprila will continue to supply credit to the credit line customers that were sourced from DNB after the distribution agreement has ended.

“We have appreciated the cooperation we have had with DNB and their interest in Aprila’s automated data driven credit and will continue our journey to close the SME funding gap in Norway on our own and with our other excellent partners” says Halvor Lande, CEO of Aprila.
