IPF Digital, the digital lending business of International Personal Finance Plc ('IPF'), is pleased to announce that it, under the Creditea brand in Mexico, has been named a Great Place To Work®.

Great Place To Work® is an institution which grants certification to companies that deliver an excellent working environment for employees with high levels of trust and engagement. The award recognises these factors are increasingly important in attracting talent across all industries and to ensure the continuing growth and success of Mexico's most innovative companies.

IPF Digital is the first FinTech company in Mexico to receive this recognition, which reflects its commitment to provide a supportive working environment. Creditea recently celebrated its first anniversary in Mexico and now has over 30 employees, having already served 20,000 digital customers.

This accreditation is supported by detailed research and analysis audited by international accountancy Grant Thornton which reflects the views and experiences of employees. Previous winners of the accolade include BBVA, Santander and Volkswagen Mexico.

Adrian Fernández de Mendoza, Country Manager of Creditea Mexico, said: 'We are proud Creditea has been recognised as a great place to work and is the first FinTech named. Our employees ensure our customers are served to the best of our ability, and we will continue to invest in skilled, motivated and knowledgeable employees who are building a solid foundation for future growth.'

Rami Ryhänen, General Manager of IPF Digital added: 'A great workplace has high level of trust and engagement and an enhanced business performance and we will be looking to build on this early success to make the most of the digital opportunity.'

For the six months ended 30 June 2017, IPF Digital had 221,000 customers and credit issued grew 61% to £106.0M. Across the Group, IPF operates across 11 international markets and its agent-delivered home credit and digital operations serve 2.4 million customers.
