Alpha Bank has acquired 100% of FlexFin, a pioneering FinTech company that offers liquidity solutions to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This strategic move aims to integrate FlexFin’s factoring operations with Alpha Bank’s ABC Factors, strengthening its presence in the factoring market.
FlexFin, founded in 2017 in Cyprus and later expanding to Greece, provides innovative factoring services, helping businesses quickly turn invoices into cash to cover daily expenses. The company serves SMEs in both Cyprus and Greece, focusing on a market that was previously overlooked by larger factoring firms.

Co-founded by Dimitris Vranopoulos and Alexandros Kelaiditis, FlexFin has garnered support from over 45 investors, including the National Bank of Greece, RayCap, and IQBICITY. The company’s Greek subsidiary achieved a significant revenue increase, reporting €1.1 million in 2023, up from €568,000 in 2022.
FlexFin’s services, which help businesses obtain liquidity even when traditional loans are unavailable, fill a crucial gap in the market. The acquisition by Alpha Bank is expected to enhance the bank’s ability to provide comprehensive financial solutions for SMEs.
The company’s success is backed by a team of experienced leaders, including Vranopoulos, a former Goldman Sachs executive, and Kelaiditis, who has extensive experience in investment banking. FlexFin’s growth is set to continue under Alpha Bank’s ownership, offering more efficient and accessible funding solutions to SMEs.
