TauliaLogo.jpgThis post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.

Taulia showed how its Taulia Enhanced Discounting (TED) enables organizations to offer financing for suppliers.

Taulia Enhanced Discounting (TED) aims to revolutionize the funding of supply chain finance. TED combines the benefits of traditional dynamic discounting – when corporations offer an early payment to a supplier in exchange for a small discount – with a flexible supplier financing programme, which allows organizations to choose to use their own cash or the capital of a third-party financial institution, to capture early payment discounts.

With TED, organizations can offer their suppliers uninterrupted, affordable financing regardless of their own cash positions, operating obligations, or financial forecasts. Taulia is so confident of the value that TED delivers, that it guarantees its customers savings of £1M a year.

Nostrum Group Enables Users to Service Accounts When and Where They Want

Nostrum_logo.jpgThis post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.

Nostrum Group demonstrated how its digital lending platform enables customers to service their accounts when and where they want.

The provision of lending is an inefficient process for both lender and customer. Our research shows that consumers want the ability to service their own accounts where and when they want.

Nostrum is launching the next iteration of its core lending system to satisfy this requirement and lead the market, fitting with our core strategy of making lending cheaper, faster, and safer, reducing operational costs for lenders whilst also providing the required level of support 24/7 when traditional call centres would not be available, allowing consumers to get information immediately whenever they want and, critically, through a secure channel.

This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.
 
C24 showed how it simplifies personal finances by hiding the complexity of multiple accounts.

C24 is a multichannel platform that allows end users to connect their accounts with different banks, so that their household financial standing is visible and manageable.

Users can pay bills, set bill payment rules, and use linked “proxy” Visa cards to pay for goods online and offline. API of C24 lets partnering banks securely provide their users with info of accounts within these banks; otherwise, customers can use Visa/MC rails or other standard means of linking their sources of funds.

C24 is a user-experience-driven app, where the complexity of numerous accounts is nowhere to be seen. The impetus for C24 to exist is to automate day-to-day finance routines and advise on the best courses of action.

Aire Launches API to Help Underwrite Risk of Borrowers with Thin Credit

This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.
 
Aire demonstrated its Credit API that helps lenders underwrite the risk of borrowers with thin credit files.

Aire is launching its Credit API at FinovateEurope 2015. The API enables lenders to use Aire to perform a credit check when traditional data doesn’t exist in the credit bureaus.

The immediate benefit is the ability to re-score applicants when no data exists on their bureau file. This enables lenders to expand the pool of eligible applicants by removing the no-data problem.

The API can also be used as a credit enhancement amongst other use-cases that we are excited to see companies explore. The signup for the API will also open at FinovateEurope for our partners.
