MEXICO CITY, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Banco Plata announce that it has secured $300 million from Oaktree, Macquarie Group, Fasanara Capital and Banco Covalto under the Nomura – led up to $500 million Private Credit facility executed in December 2025. These funds add to the original commitment by Nomura. This transaction will further fuel the Company’s strategy to diversify and strengthen its funding base as it scales its banking operations in Mexico. The closing follows two significant recent milestones: the launch of full banking operations as Banco Plata in March 2026 and the completion of Banco Plata’s parent company’s $405 million Series C equity round at a $5.0 billion valuation. Together, these developments position Banco Plata to accelerate growth with a more diversified capital structure spanning equity, deposits, and institutional debt. “These are among the most sophisticated institutional lenders globally and having them committed to our platform is a reflection of the funding structure we are building, one that is durable, cost effective, and less reliant on short-term capital,” said Marcos Kantt, Chief Financial Officer at Plata.
