08 Jan Aydo Secures Funding with Expon Capital and Opens Innovation Hub in Luxembourg
French fintech company Aydo, which specializes in structured financial products, has successfully completed its latest funding round and launched a Tech & Innovation Hub in Luxembourg. These initiatives aim to accelerate the company’s growth and enhance its ability to modernize investments in structured products.
Focus on Structured Products
Aydo has developed a proprietary operating system called Shape, which is designed to improve and optimize investments in structured products that typically combine at least two financial assets. With the new funding, Aydo plans to expand the capabilities of Shape while managing operations from its new office in Luxembourg.
Structured products present a substantial opportunity, with annual investments projected to reach $1 trillion by 2029. However, despite their potential, these products are often hindered by outdated, manual processes. Aydo’s mission is to change this by providing sellers, investors, and advisors with powerful tools aimed at achieving higher performance levels.
Strategic Presence in Luxembourg
The launch of the Tech & Innovation Hub reinforces Aydo’s presence in Luxembourg, which the company perceives as a natural base for its expansion. The robust ecosystem and expertise in wealth management that Luxembourg offers create an ideal environment for innovation and growth.
“Luxembourg provides an unmatched environment for growth and innovation,” stated Arthur Teixeira, co-founder of Aydo. The company’s membership in the Luxembourg House of Financial Technology (LHoFT) has been instrumental in supporting its journey.
Backed by Leading Investors
This recent funding round received support from the Expon Capital’s Digital Tech Fund, Vaex Capital, and members of the Luxembourg Business Angel Network. This investment reflects confidence in Aydo’s mission to modernize structured product investments and its capacity to deliver innovative solutions.
Aydo’s expansion signals a strong commitment to transforming structured investments and positioning itself at the forefront of the fintech landscape.
