Our Story

MARLO, short for "Maritime Loans," was born from a unique blend of expertise in shipping, banking, and risk management. We set sail with a singular mission: to revolutionize the way small shipping companies access capital. Traditional banks have retreated from maritime lending due to regulatory constraints, leaving the sector in a financial void. Meanwhile, institutional investors often misjudge the industry, leading to risk mispricing and the unfair label of "lender of last resort." We're here to change that narrative. MARLO offers a specialized lending marketplace designed exclusively for the maritime industry. Our platform fills the gap left by traditional financial institutions, providing multi-currency business accounts and tailored accounting modules like receivables and payables. We also ensure compliance with the ever-changing regulatory landscape, making us not just a fintech firm but your financial co-pilot in the complex seas of maritime commerce. Together, let's navigate toward a more prosperous future.
