Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], July 22: KredX, India’s leading integrated cash flow and supply chain finance platform, today announced a strategic partnership with Canara Bank, one of India’s prominent public sector banks. This collaboration aims to significantly broaden the reach of digital trade receivable discounting through KredX’s RBI-licensed TReDS platform, Domestic Trade Exchange (DTX), with a specific focus on driving deeper financial inclusion for businesses across the country.
The partnership reinforces KredX’s long-standing commitment to enhancing financial inclusivity across the supply chain ecosystem. Over the past decade, KredX has played a pivotal role in integrating both MSMEs and large enterprises into formal financial networks. The DTX platform helps address systemic challenges such as delayed payments, high borrowing costs, and collateral-heavy financing, particularly for service providers, by enabling faster, more affordable, and collateral-free access to working capital.
Canara Bank’s participation on the KredX DTX platform marks a pivotal step towards building a more robust, accessible, and inclusive supply chain finance ecosystem. As one of the oldest and largest public sector banks in India, Canara Bank brings a strong public sector presence and legacy to the partnership, with a robust network of branches across the country. By combining Canara Bank’s extensive reach and deep understanding of diverse business needs with KredX’s cutting-edge, technology-first infrastructure, this partnership will substantially enhance working capital access for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) across all sectors and scales. This aligns seamlessly with the government’s vision of increasing financial inclusion for businesses, empowering a wider array of enterprises to thrive.
Manish Kumar, Founder and CEO, KredX, stated, “We are thrilled to welcome Canara Bank as a financing partner on KredX’s technology-first TReDS platform, DTX. Canara Bank’s extensive presence, deep-rooted customer focus, commitment to financial inclusion, and increasingly, its embrace of digital innovation and diversification of services, make it an invaluable addition to our expanding ecosystem. This partnership is a significant step towards digitisation and democratising trade finance, enabling enterprise buyers and MSME partners to access crucial working capital, with Canara Bank’s increased funding capacity driving nationwide financial inclusion.”

This also supports KredX’s goal of achieving Rs. 15,000 crore in disbursals and empowering 15000 MSMEs by the end of this fiscal year.

KredX continues to expand its partner network of banks, NBFCs, and financial institutions to strengthen India’s digital supply chain infrastructure and improve access to capital across the ecosystem. In a significant move to further this mission, KredX is also engaging with State Governments to support MSMEs by raising awareness around TReDS and providing TReDS onboarding assistance. This strategic engagement will revolutionize MSME onboarding, reduce friction, improve data accuracy, and enable KredX to provide more tailored solutions to a wider base of MSMEs nationwide.
