EximPe is a fintech platform providing foreign exchange (FX) payments, trade finance, and compliance solutions for exporters and importers in the export-import sector[1][2][3]. It offers a fully digital trade account enabling businesses to manage international payments, access live FX rates, submit documents online, and handle compliance like BOEs, Shipping Bills, and e-BRCs without bank visits[1][3][4]. Serving Indian businesses and freelancers engaged in global trade, EximPe solves pain points in cross-border transactions by delivering faster transfers, lower forex margins, 24/7 support, and automated regulatory processes through partner banks like Yes Bank and DBS[2][3][4]. With $4M in funding, 25-42 employees across offices in Mumbai (HQ), Bangalore, Delhi, and Singapore HQ, the company has shown early growth since its 2021 founding, backed by investors like Leo Capital and angels from Cred, Wise, PayPal, GS, Barclays, and Flipkart[2][3].
Founded in 2021 and based initially in Bangalore, India (with HQ later in Mumbai and Singapore), EximPe emerged to simplify international trade finance amid India's growing export-import activity[1][2][3]. The leadership team, boasting over 100 years of combined experience in international banking and trade finance—including ex-founders—drives the mission, with key figures like Bosco Caldeira (Partnerships), Sajjan Kumar Agarwal (Risk and Compliance), Syed Arief Ulla and Mohammed Junaid (Growth), Bhupeendar KB (Business Development), Haseena (Business Development), and Ash (Product and Marketing)[2]. Early traction stemmed from addressing inefficiencies in traditional banking, such as manual documentation and high costs, positioning EximPe as a tech-enabled alternative under Les Amis Pvt Ltd[2][4].
EximPe rides the wave of India's booming export economy and digital fintech adoption, where cross-border payments face regulatory hurdles, high fees, and slow processing amid rising global trade[1][4]. Timing aligns with post-2021 regulatory easing for digital trade finance and GST compliance, favoring platforms that automate e-documents like e-BRCs amid a surge in freelancers and SMEs exporting services/goods[3][4]. Market forces like competition from Nium, MoneyGram, and Playter amplify its niche in India-specific compliance, while its partner-bank model (Yes Bank, DBS) ensures reliability[1][4]. By empowering smaller businesses, EximPe influences the ecosystem by accelerating GST refunds, reducing trade friction, and fostering a more inclusive global trade network for emerging markets[2][3].
EximPe is poised for expansion as India's export targets grow, potentially deepening integrations with e-commerce platforms and adding crypto/remittance features to capture more freelancer volume[1][4]. Trends like AI-driven compliance and real-time FX will shape its trajectory, with its strong backing enabling hires and market penetration beyond India[2][3]. Influence may evolve from niche compliance tool to full-stack trade enabler, challenging incumbents if it sustains growth momentum—watch for Series A milestones and global office scaling. This positions EximPe as a key player simplifying the complex world of global trade for everyday Indian businesses[2][3].
