'Oferta Finance' Enters the Nordic Market

The financial expertise of Latvian and Baltic entrepreneurs is competitive on an international scale, notes Arthur Geisari, founder of “Oferta Finance.”

In the Nordic region, the corporate financing and loan comparison market is less developed, which gives us the opportunity to capture this segment and become one of the leading players in the region, says A.Geisari. He highlights that this conviction was further supported by the “Oferta Finance” team’s participation at Nordic Fintech Week in Copenhagen - one of the most important fintech industry events in the Nordics. The meetings held there with potential partners and clients confirmed that Latvian expertise is in strong demand even beyond the Baltics. At present, “Oferta Finance” has already started discussions with entrepreneurs in Denmark and is preparing to take its first steps in Finland, Iceland, and other Nordic countries. “We see that our solutions are needed there, as entrepreneurs in these markets often lack a broader range of financing alternatives. This opens up the opportunity for us to strengthen our position in the region and to demonstrate that Latvia’s experience can also be valuable outside our borders,” says A.Geisari encouraging other Latvian companies not to shy away from developing their businesses internationally.

“Our expertise in many areas is strong and applicable worldwide. Too often we underestimate ourselves, yet experience shows that even entrepreneurs in developed countries can learn from Latvia. The key advantage of the Baltic region lies in the flexibility of its entrepreneurs and their ability to adapt quickly to a changing environment. This is what allows us to compete with larger players and carve out our place in the global market. It is important to make use of these strengths to prove that Latvian knowledge and solutions can create value internationally,” tells A.Geisari.

He emphasizes that “Oferta Finance’s” entry into the Nordic market is not only an opportunity to grow business volumes, but also a step towards closer cooperation between the Baltics and Scandinavia. “This can encourage innovation, knowledge exchange, and create new opportunities for added value on both sides. The Nordic countries are known for their high standard of living and stable economies, but that does not mean there is no room for new solutions. On the contrary - entrepreneurs are often looking for more convenient and transparent ways to access financing, which traditional banks do not always provide. This is the niche where “Oferta Finance” sees its greatest potential - we can help companies find the most suitable source of financing faster and more efficiently, enabling them not only to save time and resources but also to foster growth and competitiveness,” A.Geisari remarks, noting that interest in “Oferta Finance’s” services in the region is already high.

“The first conversations with potential clients only confirm this and give us confidence that our expansion strategy is the right one. Moreover, our international growth can serve as an example for other Latvian companies - if you have an idea and the courage to put it into action, finding your place in foreign markets is entirely realistic. Local entrepreneurs often think that nobody is waiting for them outside our country’s borders, but in fact it is our determination and pragmatism that spark interest even in more developed markets. Even in strong economies, entrepreneurs still need practical and effective solutions. That is the added value we can deliver - and that is our greatest strength,” says the founder of “Oferta Finance”.
