August was an important month for Devon, with progress across both the platform’s regulatory foundation and its underlying development portfolio. A key milestone was the publication of the KPMG Germany legal opinion, providing further clarity on Devon’s loan structure and its treatment under German regulatory requirements.
At the project level, White Amber reached an important milestone with the receipt of its building permit, bringing the Jūrmala residential development closer to construction. At the same time, a new funding opportunity was launched for Biķernieku 13A Round 3, giving lenders access to another residential development opportunity in Riga’s Teika district.
KPMG Germany has conducted a legal assessment of Devon’s loan structure and contractual framework under the applicable German regulatory requirements, with particular focus on whether Devon could be classified as conducting deposit-taking business. Below is a summary of KPMG’s general findings and regulatory conclusions.
July was focused on strengthening Devon's legal, operational, and long-term strategic foundation. During the month, we shared the roadmap for the platform's next phase, including the upcoming legal opinion from KPMG Germany, preparations for AIFM and ECSP licensing, and the planned migration to the next-generation platform. Alongside these strategic initiatives, our development pipeline continued to progress, with several projects advancing through planning, construction, sales, and financing stages.
The past weeks in the European P2P industry have been intense for everyone. As the owner of MJL Group, I want to personally address our community and provide full clarity on where MJL Group is heading, how we are reinforcing Devon’s long‑term stability, and why our strategic direction remains strong, disciplined, and fully aligned with investor protection (not only German investors). Our commitment is simple: Devon will continue operating with resilience, transparency, and regulatory strength - backed by the robust MJL Enterprises business that stands behind it.
