A host of government investors have participated in a second funding round for the lending platform, which closed a $20m series A backed by Tom Group last year.

The GV-backed online lending platform raised $150m in series B equity funding and debt, and could double its staff numbers this year.

Comcast Ventures led the digital locksmith's series B round, while 7-Eleven's corporate venturing subsidiary returned to reinvest.

Appthority has revealed a series B round that included cybersecurity company Blue Coat Systems, adding on to the $6m raised in a 2012 series A.

Insurance firms AXA, MassMutual and Transamerica all made strategic investments in the insurance portal, which has now raised $21m altogether.

The video streaming platform has added Softbank to a list of shareholders that already included online video provider Youku Tudou.

The Ping An-backed trading platform has confirmed the financing, raised at an $18.5bn valuation, and will look to go public later this year.

Commerzbank's corporate venturing unit co-led the series B round, which will be used to expand Mambu's team and fund international growth.
