Our take

In the face of soaring mortgage prices and interest rates, financial institutions are seeking adaptable solutions to revolutionise the world of digital mortgages. Digital mortgages not only expedite transaction processes but also empower potential buyers to secure fixed rates amid the backdrop of international regulatory changes. A standout success story in this ever-evolving fintech landscape is the European startup Oper.

In 2022, Oper reached a significant milestone by securing 11M euros in a Series A funding round. The core of Oper's success lies in its specialisation in digitising the mortgage process for banks, enabling faster deal closures and cost-effective transactions. Leveraging data-driven technology, Oper claims an impressive 81% acceleration in mortgage decision-making, making it a pivotal player in the industry.

Banks and brokers that have embraced Oper's technology are strategically positioning themselves and their customers for a more stable financial future in the midst of unpredictable market conditions. With the recently acquired funding, Oper is primed to expand its presence across Europe, offering an intelligent and indispensable solution for navigating an era of financial uncertainty.
