Envisant and Curql Fund II gain momentum with $2 million secured in early commitments

NAPERVILLE, IL (September 25, 2024)Envisant, a leading credit union service organization (CUSO), is pleased to announce its first collaborative investment in Curql Fund II, a venture fund focused on supporting fintechs and accelerating digital transformation in the credit union industry.  Twelve credit unions have made CUSO investments in Envisant ranging from $100,000 to $500,000, which have been aggregated into a single $2 million commitment to Curql.

 “We’re thrilled with the response to our program for credit unions to engage in Curql Fund through an investment in Envisant,” said CEO Tom Kane. “This first group of investors demonstrates the strong interest in engaging with Curql through our unique aggregation model.  By connecting with Curql through Envisant, credit unions under $1 billion in assets can get access all the benefits of Curql with a smaller outlay than a direct investment in Curql.”

Credit unions with assets above $100 million can engage with the Curql Fund through an investment in Envisant. This strategic partnership unlocks a multitude of benefits for participating credit unions, including:

  • Product and service discounts on cutting-edge fintech solutions.
  • Bi-monthly calls providing in-depth insights into the latest fintech advancements.
  • Access to the Curql Portal, a comprehensive resource hub for exploring and evaluating fintech partners.
  • Participation in work groups on critical industry topics.
  • Invitations to exclusive events that foster collaboration and knowledge sharing.
