MUNDI and Column partner for $150 million financing facility to accelerate growth in Mexico-U.S. Trade finance. Aug 22, 2026 Mexico, August 23, 2026 - MUNDI, the FinTech company powering export growth for Mexican firms and their supply chain, announced the completion of a new financing facility for up to $150 million from Column, a nationally chartered bank that provides regulated financial infrastructure for technology companies; marking Column's first financing partnership with a trade-finance-focused FinTech in Mexico. The facility strengthens MUNDI[[ʼ]]s funding capacity as it continues to scale its trade finance offering for companies across Mexico, and comes at a moment when Mexican businesspeople face uncertainty around the terms of cross-border trade under the ongoing USMCA review. The new facility adds to MUNDI[[ʼ]]s existing credit lines and together with other recent debt facility renewals, giving MUNDI the capacity to grow its receivables portfolio to up to $325 million, more than double its previous capacity. Mexican exporters have historically faced limited access to dollar-denominated financing, despite the country's growing role in North American trade: U.S. imports from Mexico reached $534.3 billion in 2025, with momentum continuing into 2026. Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) are the backbone of Mexico's economy, yet they produce less than 7% of the country's exports, in part because formal financing remains underused: supplier financing is the most common source for Mexican companies, while financing from foreign-domiciled banks remains marginal. When financing does reach Mexican companies, the impact is significant: 7x more investment, 6x more revenue, 5x more production, and 4x more employment. This is the gap MUNDI was built to close, partnering with Column to accelerate growth in Mexico-U.S. trade finance by providing working capital solutions tailored to the realities of cross-border commerce. "This partnership isn't just about more capital, it's about a fundamentally faster and more flexible way to fund Mexican exporters and their supply chain," said Martin Pustilnick, co-Founder and CEO of MUNDI. "Column's platform lets us draw funding daily, in minutes. At a time when the rules of trade between Mexico and the U.S. are being renegotiated, having the capital and the speed to back our clients isn't a nice-to-have, it's essential. This partnership more than doubles our capacity to grow and gives us room to bring new products to market." "Cross-border trade is essential to the North American economy, and we[[ʼ]]re proud to put Column[[ʼ]]s powerful banking infrastructure to work connecting exporters with dollar funding,[[ˮ]] said Brian Fishbein, Chief Investment Officer at Column. "MUNDI is a champion of Mexican trade. Today[[ʼ]]s partnership will scale their capacity to quickly deploy reliable capital to Mexican exporters and supply chains, and build economic dynamism across North America.[[ˮ]] Access to fast, flexible, dollar-denominated financing is becoming a decisive factor for Mexican exporters' ability to compete and grow, particularly as the terms of North American trade are being renegotiated under the USMCA review. For exporters and their supply chains, working capital constraints can mean the difference between capturing new international demand and losing it to better-financed competitors. MUNDI is positioned to keep expanding access to that capital for a growing base of Mexican exporters and their supply chain with this new facility, while also using its added capacity to develop new products in the months ahead.
