We believe there is a wealth of potential that comes from having access to a line of credit. From buying inventory to paying for unforeseen emergencies between paychecks, there are times where all of us could benefit from credit. Unfortunately, quick and affordable access to credit is still out of reach for most people in Latin America. We want to change that. With Vana, we provide convenient loans that can be applied for in minutes through an Android app. Our team uses a variety of non-traditional data sources and machine learning algorithms to provide loans that other financial institutions might not. Our team comes from a diverse set of previous experiences and is energized by moving rapidly and tackling tough problems. In our current high-growth stage, we get the opportunity to be presented with new challenges every day and thrive on learning and growing faster than we thought possible!
