Raisin is experiencing high demand from consumers looking for competitive savings rates, and banks looking for attractive retail funding sources. With the new investment, Raisin aims to give more consumers access to simple and convenient products by investing in new features, even simpler processes and broader accessibility, and to accelerate growth in expanding markets such as the United States, where Raisin entered in 2020 and added over $1 billion AuM in 2022 alone.
Raisin has raised money in this round from two new investors – a global financial services institution and M&G’s Catalyst, a $6 billion purpose-led global private assets strategy – and from existing investors such as Goldman Sachs.

With the new commitment, we will be better positioned to bring value to even more consumers and partners. We are thrilled that we can thereby make a valuable contribution to the functioning and the efficiency of the financial market.”
