Greensill

Greensill raised $1.7 billion across major funding rounds before its collapse, with substantial backing from SoftBank Vision Fund and significant debt financing from Credit Suisse. Large investments including $800M and $655M Series E rounds were intended to expand its global supply chain financing platform and strengthen its capital markets operations. Greensill packaged short-term receivables into investment products for institutional investors. Despite its rapid ascent to unicorn status and a last known valuation of $1.6B+, financial and regulatory pressures ultimately led to its downfall, marking one of fintech’s most high-profile failures.
