A message from our CEO

“I often have to pinch myself. My ‘Oneiro’ (dream in Greek) is becoming reality. We set out with a bold mission. To transform corporate lending for the modern age. Here’s a taste of what the Oneiro team is achieving today.

We’re setting the industry standard. We’re establishing DLX as the benchmark for corporate lending technology, delivering a flexible, future-proof platform that evolves with market needs.

We’re fostering innovation. We’re modernising corporate lending by replacing outdated, manual processes with digital-first solutions. We’re continuously pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, leveraging emerging technologies to create smarter, more adaptable lending solutions.

We’re building lasting partnerships. We’re working closely with our clients, understanding their challenges, and evolving our platform to meet their ever-changing needs. I am incredibly proud of what we’ve built so far, and even more excited for what’s to come. To all those who’ve joined us and will join us in this digital revolution, thank you.”
