Adolfo Vinatea, CEO of Krealo, hopes this investment will sow synergies benefiting both Plurall and Credicorp. He further added that the investment is aimed at providing strategic value to the group, bolstering its current businesses, entering new verticals or markets, and exploring innovative technologies to enable new business models.
