Information to be added or removed: In May 2020, Judo Bank has raised $230 million in fresh equity at a post-money valuation north of $1 billion, from existing investors, lifting it into an exclusive club of local unicorns and showing the support of existing investors despite the risks COVID-19 presents to business banking. "The support we’ve received for our third round, at an increased valuation to our second round capital raise last year, underscores the confidence and commitment our existing investors have in Judo, particularly at a time of extreme volatility in global markets, that has impacted all bank valuations," Mr Hornery said in a statement

Information to be added or removed: December 2020, Judo Bank has announced that it raised more than $280 million in equity in its recent Round 4 (R4) capital raise and will utilise the funds to "continue to expand the bank's operations nationally". The post-money valuation of Judo now exceeds $1.6 billion, up 60 per cent from its position in May. Judo's co-founder and co-CEO, David Hornery commented: "This year alone, we have raised over half a billion dollars in funding across two rounds in the most challenging market conditions in living memory, with funding coming from some of the best-known and most widely respected private and institutional investors in the world.”
Explanation of issue: Judo Bank announced its 4th equity raise in Dec 2020, and managed to raise over half a billion dollars in 2020 with the 3rd and 4th equity raise alone, this has previously not been updated in the Wikipedia Judo Bank page, thus I would like to add it and to keep consistent with the previously mentioned equity raises of Judo Bank in the years before.
