About Quona Capital

Quona Capital is a global venture firm focused on inclusive fintech. We invest in startups expanding access to financial services for consumers and growing businesses. We focus on markets that are massively underserved, where we see the biggest opportunity for transformation into more equitable financial systems. Beyond pure-play fintechs, we back startups tackling broader economic and social challenges, where embedded financial solutions can be a catalyst for impact—from supply chain and agtech platforms to e-commerce, proptech, and health. We invest in emerging markets while actively measuring our impact on financial inclusion at both the company and portfolio levels. In our portfolio, there is no trade-off between returns and impact. Quona has a rich heritage based on our strategic relationship with Accion, a leader in financial inclusion for over 60 years. Accion was Quona’s initial sponsor and anchor investor, and with whom Quona pursues a shared purpose of dramatically improving access and quality of financial services to the underserved. Quona’s predecessor—Frontier Investments Group—was created on the balance sheet of Accion, which was early to recognize the power of technology to accelerate financial services innovation. Quona continues its collaboration with Accion Venture Lab, Accion Digital Transformation Fund, and the Center for Financial Inclusion.
