Our take
Trumid is a finance company focused on the credit market, which is a growing sector; the corporate bond market is worth in excess of $40 trillion. The business offers a diverse network for trading corporate bonds to offer a new solution to customers.
There is stiff competition in the sector, and Trumid's rivals for market share include X Financial, Darwinex, Vise and Butterwire. However, the company believes it differentiates itself through a combination of technology, intuitive design, and market expertise to deliver a unique trading solution to its community of users.
Considering the commercial potential of the platform, it’s not surprising that Trumid has received huge private finance support. The company also regularly partners with other businesses in the sector, and recently developed an electronic Asian bond trading platform with SGX and Hillhouse as it looks to expand overseas.
