Zepz, previously known as WorldRemit, has successfully raised $267 million in a funding round led by Accel, with participation from Leapfrog, TCV, and Coller Capital. The IFC - International Finance Corporation, a member of the The World Bank Group, has committed up to $20 million to this investment. The company plans to use these funds to expand its operations in its core African markets. Mark Lenhard, CEO of Zepz, emphasized the company's growth potential, particularly during times of crisis or geopolitical unrest when people are more likely to send money to support their families and communities. While Zepz had previously considered an initial public offering, the company has now postponed these plans. According to Harry Nelis, partner at Accel, investors are not currently pressing for Zepz to enter the public markets. #Zepz #DigitalRemittance #AfricanMarkets #FinTech #VentureCapital
