Moneyview doubles down on guarantee-backed lending
Mint Hyderabad
|March 10, 2026
Fintech Moneyview is hunkering down on a lending model just as digital lending peers like Paytm and KreditBee are either moving away from it or focusing on growth in other models.
In its draft IPO papers, the Bengaluru-based startup said it plans to expand default loss guarantee (DLG) arrangements with lending partners as part of its credit distribution strategy. A default loss guarantee allows a partner, say, a fin-tech, to compensate regulated entities like bank or NBFC for loan default.
The move comes as financial institutions reassess such guarantees following Reserve Bank of India’s mid-2023 guidelines capping DLG exposure at 5% of loan portfolio and mandating board approval.
Paytm, a listed fintech firm that began DLG-backed loans in 2024, began retreating from the arrangement due to high costs by mid-2025.
