CREDITSHELF RECORDS BEST-EVER START TO THE YEAR 
  . Already EUR 18.6 million of total loans arranged after the first two months of the year 
  . This means the arranged loan volume in the quarter to date is already significantly higher than Q1 2020 (EUR 11.6 
    million) 
  . Next milestone reached: creditshelf has brokered more than EUR 300 million of debt capital to German SMEs since the 
    platform was launched 
Frankfurt am Main, March 3, 2021 ? creditshelf Aktiengesellschaft, the leading credit platform for digital SME finance 
in Germany, is seeing the strongest start to a fiscal year since the company was founded. 
Its success is due to more intense activity both on the borrower side and on the funding side of the creditshelf 
platform. This had led to creditshelf arranging EUR 18.6 million in SME loans since the start of the year. At the end 
of February, the company has already clearly exceeded the first-quarter figure for previous year (Q1 2020: EUR 11.6 
million) with a promisingly filled pipeline for the next weeks. This growth comes from a balanced mix of existing and 
new clients and was largely the result of faster, technology-based loan analysis. creditshelf has already brokered more 
than EUR 300 million of debt capital to German SMEs since the platform was launched. This underscores the growing role 
played by digital platforms in the lending process. 
Dr. Daniel Bartsch, a creditshelf founding partner and the company's Management Board member, Markets, commented on the 
successful start to the year as follows: "Our offering is clearly attractive. Consistently high volumes of loan 
requests and the clear rise in arranged loan volumes at the start of the year show that German SMEs aim to leverage the 
opportunities offered by the coronavirus crisis. We are delighted to be helping these dynamic German companies to 
transform and innovate by providing complementary finance solutions."
