Nova Credit Named One of North America's Fastest-Growing Companies in the 2024 Deloitte Technology Fast 500™

Nova Credit's 591% revenue growth is driven by widespread adoption by major institutions like American Express, HSBC, and SoFi, coupled with continued expansion into U.K. and Canadian markets.

NEW YORK, NY — November 21  — Nova Credit today announced it ranked 199 on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America, now in its 30th year.

"This recognition is important as the U.S. financial system embraces open banking. Our growth has been driven by proving that consumer-permissioned data can transform credit access,” said Misha Esipov, Co-founder and CEO of Nova Credit, “we've already unlocked over $20 billion in credit opportunities through our cash flow and alternative data solutions. As the CFPB's 1033 rule ushers in a new era of open banking, we're excited to help more lenders build the future of credit on real-time financial data."

“For 30 years we’ve been celebrating companies that are actively driving innovation. The software industry continues to be a beacon of growth, and the fintech industry made a strong showing on this year’s list, surpassing life sciences for the first time,” said Steve Fineberg, vice chair, U.S. technology sector leader, Deloitte. “Significantly, we also saw a breakthrough in performance of private companies, with the highest number of private companies named to the list in our program’s history. This year’s winners have shown they have the vision and expertise to continue to perform at a high level, and that deserves to be celebrated.”

“Innovation, transformation, and disruption of the status quo are at the forefront for this year’s Technology Fast 500 list, and there’s no better way to celebrate 30 years of program history,” said Christie Simons, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP and industry leader for technology, media and telecommunications within Deloitte’s Audit & Assurance practice. “This year’s winning companies have demonstrated a continuous commitment to growth and remarkable consistency in driving forward progress. We extend our congratulations to all of this year’s winners — it’s an incredible time for innovation.”
