UK Fintech OpenTrade Secures £5.5M to Boost Stablecoin Yield Services
OpenTrade, a London-based fintech infrastructure provider, has closed a £5.5 million funding round, led by Notion Capital and Mercury Fund, raising its total capital to around £8.5 million since inception. The investment is earmarked to scale its build-out of real-world asset-backed stablecoin yield services across high-inflation markets in Latin America and Europe. OpenTrade embeds 'yield-as-a-service' into fintech apps, allowing users to earn interest on USD and EUR stablecoins—rates that significantly outperform traditional banking options. Fintech clients such as Criptan in Spain and Littio in Colombia now offer yields up to 9%, compared with local bank APRs of under 0.5%. Co-founders Dave Sutter, Jeff Handler, and Tom Niermann have close links to USDC's Centre consortium and hold decades of digital assets experience. They launched OpenTrade in early 2024 to address demand from emerging markets, where inflation erodes savings and dollar-denominated banking returns are negligible. The platform has since managed approximately $47 million in assets and processed nearly $200 million in transaction volume, growing at an average of 20% month-over-month. ADVERTISEMENT The round also saw participation from a16z crypto, AlbionVC, and CMCC Global, reflecting continued investor confidence. OpenTrade intends to direct the funds towards enhancing its technological capabilities, supporting growth in client-facing applications, and broadening its product suite to include a wider range of real-world asset-backed instruments. The company's timing aligns with a broader surge in stablecoin infrastructure. Globally, stablecoin transaction volumes now exceed $20 trillion annually—outpacing conventional payment systems such as Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal. For fintech firms in emerging economies, embedding stablecoin yields into everyday platforms is reshaping perceptions of crypto, transforming digital currencies from purely transactional tools into accessible savings vehicles. Argentina and Colombia exemplify this shift. Dollar accounts are rare, and where available, yields are negligible. In Colombia, dollar-denominated APRs are below 0.4%, while Littio users, through OpenTrade, attract up to 6%. Spain's Criptan offers up to 9% in EUR stablecoin returns—generating user traction by outperforming traditional savings products. Despite the rapid uptake of stablecoins, mainstream users in many regions face roadblocks: regulatory frameworks for safe yield generation have lagged behind adoption. OpenTrade bridges this gap by offering compliant real-world asset backing and embedded yield capabilities, supporting regulatory alignment while extending market reach. This funding arrives amid a regulatory pivot in Europe. The Financial Conduct Authority plans to unveil discussion papers on stablecoin issuance and custody in Q4 2025, aligning with the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets framework. OpenTrade's growth strategy demonstrates fintechs' ambition to navigate both innovation and regulation in stablecoin infrastructure. Fintech founders view embedded stablecoin yield as essential for financial inclusion. Sutter has emphasized that stablecoins have become crypto's 'killer app' and that over a third of Latin American consumers have used them for purchases. OpenTrade is positioned as an enabler: the platform supports deposits, withdrawals, and yield generation directly within existing fintech interfaces. Investor sentiment adds context. Notion Capital's Itxaso del Palacio remarked that the $240 billion stablecoin market needs robust infrastructure. Mercury Fund's Samantha Lewis described OpenTrade as 'core financial infrastructure for the next generation of fintech'. These endorsements highlight confidence in both OpenTrade's leadership and market relevance. Looking ahead, OpenTrade aims to expand its reach over the next 12–18 months. Key areas include launching new yield products, incorporating diverse asset classes, and enhancing the user experience for fintech clients. The vision is to become the go-to partner for compliant stablecoin yield solutions, competing across developed and emerging economies where rising inflation, currency volatility, and limited access to traditional deposits persist.

Egypt targets 30mln tourists by 2031 under new investment plan
Egypt targets 30 million tourists by 2031 under a new investment plan for its tourism and antiquities sectors. The target was part of a government strategy to increase foreign direct investment, which was reviewed at a meeting on Tuesday chaired by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly. 'The government is working to formulate clear plans with specific targets in order to present investment opportunities in various sectors, in a way that contributes to increasing foreign direct investment,' the prime minister said at the start of the meeting at the government's headquarters in the New Administrative Capital. Madbouly added that the tourism sector is one of the country's most important, and the meeting aimed to follow up on the efforts of the tourism and investment ministries in this regard. Sherif Fathy, Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, said a unit is being formed to monitor investment opportunities with the goal of creating an 'investment opportunities bank' to present available projects in the sector. The minister clarified that achieving the tourist arrival target is linked to expanding hotel capacity. In 2024, hotel capacity grew by an additional 7,200 rooms, 55% of which were new, the minister said. Around 19,000 new hotel rooms are expected to be added in 2025. The plan also calls for investment in tourist restaurants, cafeterias, and the preservation and restoration of antiquities. The Supreme Council of Antiquities has averaged 36 projects annually over the past five years, he noted. The minister reviewed the targeted investment plan for 2025 to 2031, which covers hotel rooms, restaurants, safaris, camps, and theme parks across Egypt's governorates. It also includes investment in the rehabilitation and reuse of archaeological sites and museums through public-private partnerships. Hassan El-Khatib, Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade, said the meeting was the third in a series to discuss sectoral investment targets within the state's unified national investment strategy. He described tourism and antiquities as a vital area for investment, adding that opportunities in these sectors will be made available on the country's investment map with all necessary data for investors. El-Khatib explained that the national investment strategy's methodology involves diagnosing each sector, setting priorities, proposing policy and legislative reforms, and preparing a detailed investment map with ready-to-implement opportunities. The implementation timeline includes coordination meetings between relevant ministries, the formation of joint working groups, and the submission of periodic progress reports to the cabinet. The meeting was attended by the ministers of Tourism and Antiquities, and Investment and Foreign Trade, along with officials from both ministries. © 2024 Daily News Egypt.
