About
Mundi's journey began with a clear and pressing mission: to empower small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Mexico to compete on a global stage. Founded in 2019 by Martin Pustilnick and Paulina Aguilar Vela, the company emerged from the realization that many exporters were effectively acting as banks for their clients, waiting 30, 60, or even 90 days to get paid for their goods. This cash flow gap stifled growth and prevented countless businesses from seizing international opportunities. What started as a focused effort to solve this liquidity crunch has since evolved into a comprehensive financial operating system designed specifically for cross-border trade. From its headquarters in New York and operations in Mexico, Mundi has built a fully digital platform that removes the friction from international commerce. By leveraging advanced technology, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, the company assesses risk in real-time, allowing them to offer non-recourse factoring that gives exporters immediate access to their funds. Over time, Mundi has expanded its suite of solutions beyond just financing. Today, the platform offers multi-currency accounts, foreign exchange services, and cargo insurance, creating an all-in-one ecosystem where businesses can manage their entire export operation. Backed by prominent investors such as FJ Labs and Haymaker Ventures, Mundi continues to break down financial barriers, helping Latin American companies scale their exports and thrive in the global market.
