Pagaya Technologies Ltd.

A financial technology company whose artificial intelligence helps banks, credit unions, and other lenders approve more borrowers. Founded in 2016 in Tel Aviv by three childhood friends, Pagaya sits between financial institutions and institutional investors, analyzing thousands of non-traditional data points—not just credit scores—to judge loan applicants. Its name is said to come from a word meaning "impact" or "connection," reflecting its role linking lenders and consumers.
