AI-Native Credit Platform 9fin Scores $170 Million Funding Round

9fin raised $170 million in a Series C funding round to scale its artificial intelligence-native platform for global debt markets.

The round valued the company at $1.3 billion and brought the total amount of funding raised by 9fin to $250 million, the firm said in a Tuesday (March 31) press release.

9fin’s platform centralizes information from data rooms, emails and PDFs; uses it to fuel AI technology; and helps credit professionals identify, analyze and act on opportunities, according to the release.

More than 300 banks, asset managers, law firms and advisory firms use the platform to source deals, analyze risk and monitor global debt markets, the release said.

9fin will use the new funding to accelerate its AI capabilities, expand its proprietary dataset and support its continued growth in the United States, per the release.

“We’ve scaled our product rapidly across geographies and asset classes to provide clients with unmatched breadth and depth of data in an AI-native platform,” 9fin CEO and Co-founder Steven Hunter said in the release. “Our ultimate goal is to be the only platform credit professionals ever need. This capital gets us there even faster.”

Michael Guiness, principal at HarbourVest Partners, which led the round, said in the release that AI is reshaping how financial professionals work.

“9fin has built a powerful platform combining proprietary data with AI-driven workflows — exactly what we’re looking for in next generation market leaders,” Guiness said. “We’re excited to support the company as it scales globally.”

The company’s latest funding round followed a December 2024 Series B round in which 9fin raised $50 million. At that time, the company’s customer base included about 200 companies.

9fin acquired Bond Radar, an intelligence and data provider for the international bond and loan markets, in March 2025. The company said the acquisition would deepen and broaden its data coverage, strengthen its AI-powered platform, and accelerate its expansion into new markets.

With the help of two decades of historical issuance data gained through its acquisition of Bond Radar, 9fin launched comprehensive coverage of Latin America in September 2025. The company also established a dedicated regional team across the region to support local clients and coverage.
