Vontive, a mortgage technology company that specialises in standardising private credit mortgages for investment real estate, has announced a new $150m revolving securitisation and a strategic equity investment from Citi.
The securitisation, named VNTV 2025-RTL1, was led solely by Citi, which also participated as an equity investor through its Spread Products Investment in Technologies (SPRINT) team.
Founded by veterans of the credit and technology industries, Vontive offers an embedded mortgage platform that enables banks, credit unions, property technology firms and consumer-facing brands to launch private investment-mortgage offerings. Its software automates traditionally manual tasks, offering scalable and consistent access to real estate credit.
Vontive CEO and co-founder Charles McKinney said, “There is unprecedented demand for private credit exposure from financial institutions but delivering it consistently and at scale requires Vontive’s sophisticated technology. The combination of Citi’s equity investment and full suite of capital markets solutions will enable us to supercharge Vontive’s growth sustainably.”
Lee Smallwood, global head of markets innovation and investments at Citi, added, “Vontive is a highly strategic investment given the meaningful ways that Citi’s Spread Products desks can support them. We are excited about Vontive’s growth potential and their story – they have a strong blend of mortgage and technology expertise.”
