Nexus
Nexus launched on Mintos in the fall of 2019 and offered investments in business loans issued in Russia. Right after publishing the announcement about Nexus joining Mintos, additional aspects were identified within the context of the company’s offered loans that needed to be addressed. As a result, Nexus loans were removed from Mintos immediately, and any investments made by investors were repurchased.
eFaktor
eFaktor launched on Mintos in December 2018 and offered investments in invoices issued in Poland.
