Out of 11 listed financial services startups in Edinburgh, the largest disclosed round is Frontier IP Group plc at $5.9B (Series Unknown) on 2026-06-17, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amount of $354M for Sigma Capital Group on 2025-12-01; only one other disclosed figure is above $100M ($136M for LendingCrowd on 2022-02-10). The list is also temporally clustered: four entries have round dates between 2023-03-15 and 2023-05-02 (CodeBase, FinTech Scotland, SquareBook, and Grand Bequest), while the overall span runs from 2026-06-30 back to 2020-09-22 (Zumo).
Stage disclosures are sparse in this slice: 5 of 11 rows are “Series Unknown” and 2 of 11 are “undisclosed,” leaving just 4 rows with explicit stage labels (BR-DGE Series B at $13M on 2026-06-30; DirectID Series A at $10M on 2023-02-22; plus DirectID’s 2022 rounds at $3M and Zumo’s $800K without a stage label). Geographic naming is tightly Edinburgh-centric, though one company appears as “Edinburgh, United Kingdom” versus “Edinburgh, Edinburgh, City of” for multiple entries.

Frequently asked
What does the biggest disclosed round look like compared to the rest of the Edinburgh financial services list?
Frontier IP Group plc’s $5.9B (Series Unknown) on 2026-06-17 is the only disclosed round in the billions and it dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amount: Sigma Capital Group’s $354M on 2025-12-01.
Do the most recent rounds cluster into a narrow window, or are they spread out across time?
There is a notable 2023 cluster: four entries fall between 2023-03-15 (CodeBase) and 2023-05-02 (Grand Bequest). The overall time span for the 11 rows runs from 2020-09-22 (Zumo, $800K) through 2026-06-30 (BR-DGE, $13M).
How much of the list has missing or non-specific funding stage information?
Stage labeling is incomplete: 5 of 11 rows are “Series Unknown,” and 2 of 11 are “undisclosed” on the amount field (Grand Bequest, FinTech Scotland, and CodeBase are “undisclosed” among the undislcosed-amount pattern, while Grand Bequest and the other two still show “Series Unknown”). Only 4 rows have explicit stage labels tied to disclosed amounts (BR-DGE Series B; DirectID Series A; and DirectID’s two 2022 rounds).
Are there outliers on the low end or high end that stand apart from typical disclosed amounts?
Yes on both ends: Zumo at $800K (2020-09-22) is far below the rest of the disclosed amounts, while Frontier IP Group plc’s $5.9B (2026-06-17) sits well above every other disclosed figure in this slice.
Which stage labels appear more than once, and what does that suggest about repeated financing?
DirectID appears twice with explicit stages in 2022: a $3M Convertible Note on 2022-01-24 and a $10M Series A on 2023-02-22, indicating a recurring financing pattern rather than a one-off disclosed round.
