Analysis
PropTech firm TRUSTART will provide Bank of China an on-site photo service for Japanese real-estate collateral. A core pain of cross-border lending is verifying overseas collateral in person, so third-party on-site photos give remote lenders eyes on the ground, a pragmatic case of PropTech filling a cross-border finance gap and a sign of foreign lenders' appetite for Japanese property.
