Mumbai – Drip Capital, a global financial technology company building infrastructure for trade finance and B2B commerce, has crossed $9 billion in cumulative MSME trade finance transactions since its founding in 2016. The milestone highlights the company’s expanding role in supporting small businesses as they navigate global trade complexities.
As per findings by the Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI), India’s MSME sector faces a credit gap of nearly ₹30 lakh crore, limiting its ability to scale and participate effectively in global trade. At the same time, shifting global supply chains are adding to uncertainties around logistics, payments, and buyer reliability. Drip Capital is addressing these challenges by offering integrated trade support solutions that help MSMEs manage risks and access global markets with greater confidence.
The company has facilitated $2+ billion in trade transactions in FY25-26 alone and with MSMEs contributing a significant share of this volume, Drip Capital is now targeting $11+ billion in cumulative transactions by 2027.
Sharing views on the achievement, Pushkar Mukewar, Co-Founder and CEO, Drip Capital said “Global trade today demands more than just access to capital MSMEs need a reliable partner to navigate uncertainty, unlock the right opportunities, and manage risk effectively. At Drip Capital, we are focused on building solutions that simplify cross-border trade and enable businesses to grow sustainably despite external disruptions. Crossing the $9 billion milestone reflects the trust that MSMEs worldwide have placed in us. As India sharpens its focus on boosting exports, we remain committed to supporting their global ambitions.”
Technology has been central to Drip Capital’s growth. Nearly a decade of cross-border trade data, built up across 100+ countries, now powers proprietary AI and machine learning models that underwrite risk, verify trade documents, and assess buyer and supplier reliability in real time. This has allowed the company to approve financing in as little as 24 to 48 hours, a process that typically takes weeks, and to scale transaction volume without a proportional increase in operational cost. The same data and AI infrastructure also powers buyer-supplier matching on its B2B commerce platform.
Beyond financing, Drip Capital also runs a B2B commerce platform that connects growing businesses with verified global buyers and suppliers. The platform helps businesses identify trade partners, manage cross-border transactions, and participate in international supply chains. Together with financing, this gives businesses a single entry point to both find and fund their trade, reflecting Drip Capital’s broader role in building modern infrastructure for trade finance and B2B commerce.
