MonetaGo’s Fraud Prevention Technology Enables India Factoring to Expand MSME Financing Capabilities
MUMBAI, 4 March 2026 - India Factoring and MonetaGo have announced a strategic alliance, whereby India Factoring will deploy MonetaGo’s Secure Financing system to detect invoice financing fraud and authenticate trade documents, reinforcing the integrity of receivables finance.
India Factoring and Finance Solutions Pvt Lts is an RBI-registered NBFC-Factor and part of the FIMBank Group. It is a market leader in India’s export factoring segment, and provides domestic and export factoring and broader trade-finance solutions to MSMEs, mid and large corporates and exporters. As India’s receivables-finance market accelerates through regulatory reform and digitization, NBFC-factors like India Factoring play a pivotal role in unlocking working capital and addressing payment delays across supply chains.
India’s Foreign Trade Policy 2023 sets an ambition to reach US$2 trillion in total exports by 2030, a priority underscored by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry and DGFT leadership. As trade volumes scale to meet this target, robust risk-mitigation frameworks will be essential to protect the ecosystem from fraud losses and sustain confident growth in cross-border flows.
“India Factoring serves as a vital enabler for exporters, MSME, mid and large size organizations, seeking to convert receivables into working capital,” said Ravi Valecha CEO, India Factoring and Finance Solutions Pvt Ltd. “In today’s increasingly digital and interconnected trade environment, the integrity of receivables and the authenticity of documents are crucial. The adoption of MonetaGo’s Secure Financing system represents a decisive step in safeguarding our customers’ financing, reducing risk, and supporting our continued growth across India’s export sector.”
“India’s receivables finance landscape is evolving rapidly”, said Kalyan Basu, Managing Director, India, MonetaGo. “With India Factoring joining our Secure Financing network, we are enabling real-time validation of invoices and trade documents to reduce invoice financing risk, strengthen lender confidence, and empower businesses with safer access to finance.”
MonetaGo’s Secure Financing system is a global benchmark for invoice fraud prevention across trade finance ecosystems. In India, the platform supports real-time checks and validation of Bill of Lading information, including container numbers, strengthening lender confidence and reducing risk. Since the beginning of 2023, MonetaGo’s Secure Financing deployment has led to a 286% increase in MSMEs receiving financing, underscoring the impact of trusted infrastructure on access to credit.
“I am pleased to welcome India Factoring as a direct user of our Secure Financing system,” said Neil Shonhard, CEO of MonetaGo. “This collaboration demonstrates how strategic partnerships between fintech infrastructure providers and NBFC-factors can raise the bar for transparency, mitigate fraud, and unlock additional financing for underserved MSMEs.”
This collaboration will see India Factoring integrate MonetaGo’s Secure Financing system into its operations to enhance document verification and fraud prevention across its factoring
and trade-finance portfolio. The partnership underscores India Factoring’s commitment to building a secure, transparent, and scalable financing environment for businesses and exporters.
