Innovate UK Innovation LoanFintech: financial infrastructure
Panta
£1,500,000 Secured with zero equity dilution
The challenge
Panta is building the world's first Index Operating System, a cloud-native platform that cuts financial index creation from months to days. Commercialization needed substantial capital, but the founders wanted to preserve shareholder equity rather than raise another round.
What we did
- Identified the Innovate UK Innovation Loan as the best fit for mature technology with a clear route to market.
- Strengthened the innovation narrative and challenged technical assumptions before drafting.
- Built detailed forecasts, milestones, work packages and a robust repayment strategy against the assessment criteria.
The result
Panta secured a £1.5 million Innovation Loan, funding commercial rollout of its Index Operating System while preserving shareholder value and reducing reliance on further equity investment.
