Deal Drive Fintech Debuts on AIX

At Raison, we connect local markets with global opportunities, enabling investors to participate in the growth of high-potential international companies. The placement of loan participation notes for UAE-based fintech Deal Drive on the Astana International Exchange (AIX) exemplifies how Kazakhstan is becoming a gateway to the global technology economy and fintech investment.

AIX Perspective

We are pleased to support innovative companies such as Deal Drive in gaining access to international investors. This placement not only creates attractive opportunities for local and regional participants, but also highlights Kazakhstan’s growing role as a financial hub.

Raison Perspective

Andrey Berezin, Co-Founder Raison:

For us, it is important to bring to Kazakhstan not just financial instruments, but real technology companies with strong teams and a proven track record. Deal Drive has already demonstrated its effectiveness in Europe and the MENA region, and it has the potential for global scale. The placement on AIX reinforces Raison’s strategy: building a bridge between international fintech projects and investors in Kazakhstan, and creating access to high-yield, transparent investment structures.

What It Means for Investors

The placement of Deal Drive’s loan participation notes on AIX provides:

• access to the fast-growing mobility and fintech sectors,
• attractive USD-denominated yields,
• validation of AIX as a platform for international businesses entering the debt market,
• a demonstration of Raison’s strategy to integrate global technology projects into the regional investment landscape.

This issuance underscores Raison’s strategic mission: shaping a market for global investment opportunities in Kazakhstan. For investors, it translates into access to vetted international fintech projects, transparent instruments, and sustainable capital growth.
