J.P. Morgan Payments has selected Trulioo for identity verification tools.
Trulioo’s Person Match and Identity Document Verification will offer verification of consumers and businesses.
J.P. Morgan Payments processes more than $9 trillion in payments each day in over 160 countries and 120 currencies.
Truliooannounced today that J.P. Morgan Payments has tapped it for fraud prevention. JPM Payments will leverage Trulioo’s consumer and business verification tools.
“We chose [Trulioo] because of its breadth of personally identifiable data sources, impressive match rates, and global footprint,” said J.P. Morgan Payments Managing Director- Global Head of Trust & Safety Ryan Schmiedl. “Trulioo has the trusted authentication and verification experience we want to offer clients and additional layers of protection from fraud during the onboarding experience and beyond.”
JPM, which processes more than $9 trillion in payments each day in over 160 countries and 120 currencies, will leverage Trulioo’s global payments and trust and safety models. Specifically, JPM will use Trulioo’s Person Match and Identity Document Verification to offer verification of both consumers and businesses.
“With real-time access to hundreds of government registries, public records, data sources and document types, we can verify people and businesses globally, leaving no space for bad actors and, ultimately, help J.P. Morgan clients adhere to the highest of standards, no matter where their clients operate,” said Trulioo CEO Steve Munford.
Canada-based Trulioo, which was founded in 2011, helps organization navigate compliance by offering real-time verification of more than five billion people and 700 million business entities worldwide. Last month, Trulioo added intelligent transaction routing to its identity verification orchestration platform. The company has raised $475 million.
Fraud prevention platform Darwinium raised $18 million in Series A funding this week.
The company positions its fraud detection processes on the network perimeter to provide better visibility, coverage, and agility.
Recently relocated to San Francisco, California, Darwinium made its Finovate debut at FinovateEurope earlier this year.
Digital security and fraud prevention platform Darwiniumraised $18 million in Series A funding this week. The investment was led by U.S. Venture Partners, and featured participation from seed investors Blackbird, Airtree Ventures, and Accomplice. The Series A takes the San Francisco-based company’s total funding to $26 million. Darwinium will use the additional capital to scale its solution globally.
“AI capabilities have given fraudsters the upper hand of speed, scale, and greater efficiency,” Darwinium CEO and co-founder Alisdair Faulkner explained. “This is why we designed Darwinium to deliver the visibility and coverage of a security tool, the context and insight of fraud solutions, with the agility of AI. It’s the platform that will future-proof organizations against the most complex attacks.”
Darwinium offers two innovations to help companies fight fraud. First, Darwinium moves fraud detection processes to the network perimeter, to “the edge,” as the company refers to the strategy. This gives businesses a comprehensive view of the customer journey at every digital touchpoint, making it easier to distinguish trusted from risky behavior. This approach also gives the technology an advantage over API-based fraud protection solutions. These solutions, according to Darwinium, are not sufficiently agile and lack the context to adequately respond to evolving fraud threats.
Second, Darwinium leverages a SaaS approach to data protection, encrypting and anonymizing data on “the edge.” Any customer data that is subjected to analysis is stored within the business’ own infrastructure with their own digital keys. Darwinium’s technology then uses the anonymized version of this customer data. This enables the information to be processed without being exposed to fraudsters. Darwinium’s approach to securing customer data makes it easy for businesses to comply with consumer privacy regulations such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Founded in 2021, Darwinium made its Finovate debut at FinovateEurope earlier this year. At the conference, the company previewed its fraud prevention platform that leverages individual digital signatures to make sure that website visitors and customers are who they say they are. The company introduced its Continuous Customer Protection platform this spring, simultaneously announcing the firm’s expansion to the U.S. and relocation of its corporate headquarters to San Francisco.
Mahalo Banking launched a new solution to combat credential stuffing.
The new offering, Credential Assurance Technology (CAT), augments the sign-in process to make credential stuffing impossible.
Mahalo Banking won Best of Show in its Finovate debut last month at FinovateFall.
Mahalo Banking, a Credit Union Service Organization (CUSO) that took home Best of Show honors in its Finovate debut last month, has launched a new tool to fight credential stuffing. Mahalo’s Credential Assurance Technology (CAT) augments the traditional account sign-in process, disrupting bot functioning and rendering credential stuffing impossible. Importantly, the technology does not require the use of friction-creating methods such as CAPTCHAs.
“With CAT, credit unions can confidently safeguard member accounts and help prevent the attacks that come at a high cost,” Mahalo COO Denny Howell said. He referred to CAT as a result of Mahalo’s “unwavering commitment to producing innovations that address the all-too-common obstacles faced by credit unions to redefine the digital banking experience.”
In a study by the Identity Defined Security Alliance, 84% of respondents said their organizations had experienced a data breach, which often leads to compromised credentials. Cybercriminals can direct automated bots to use this data to hack login credentials – such as those of credit union members.
“If your credit union has not been targeted yet, it’s just a matter of time,” Mahalo President and CEO Jim Stickley said. He noted that it was important that new security measures be as inobtrusive as they are effective. “It was important to use to create a solution that would resolve this issue without adding new barriers or disruption for credit union members,” Stickley said. “What we have created has simply changed the game. When our CAT solution is enabled, credential stuffing simply does not work.”
Founded in 2018, Mahalo made its Finovate debut last month at FinovateFall, earning Best of Show honors from our attendees. At the conference, Mahalo’s Howell and Chief Technology Officer Dan Domek demonstrated how the CUSO had integrated comprehensive neurodiverse functionality directly into its platform. This enables the platform to better serve members that may have unique needs due to autism, dyslexia, epilepsy, color-blindness, or other conditions.
In August, the Troy, Michigan-based fintech announced an expansion of its partnership with fellow Finovate alum Larky. That same month, Mahalo partnered with Providence Federal Credit Union to enhance both online and mobile banking experiences for the credit union’s 16,000+ members.
Is there a subsector of fintech that is more eager to adopt AI than the world of investing and asset management? From the burden of ever-growing amounts of potentially valuable data to the demands of managing risk to the challenge of generating alpha and producing above market returns, there are many ways that wealth management will benefit from innovations in AI – and the people involved in wealth management know it.
Founded by a team of former ETH Zurich researchers, aisot is one of the companies that is dedicated to helping asset and wealth managers make the most of the AI opportunity. The Swiss startup, launched in 2019 and headquartered in Zurich, leverages generative AI and access to market and alternative data sources, to deliver analytics, forecasts, and actionable insights to traders, business analysts, data scientists, and other financial services professionals.
“Information moves markets,” aisot co-founder and CEO Stefan Klauser said at the beginning of his Finovate demo in 2021. “At aisot we give you specialized market insights and full costs. (Our technology) reduces forecasting errors by up to 50%, and can enhance your returns. Whether you are a machine learning expert, a quant, or someone that has not had a systematic approach to data before, aisot’s services are always easy to use.”
aisot co-founder and CEO Stefan Klauser demoing his company’s technology at FinovateSpring 2021.
aisot launched its AI Insights Platform earlier this month. The cloud-based solution enables asset managers and wealth managers to offer their clients personalized investment portfolios at scale. The platform consists of three components: the AI Insights Dashboard, the Custom Feature Suite, and the Product Launch Pad. Via the Dashboard, users can investigate multiple market scenarios and fine-tune investment strategies. Dashboard features include an integrated portfolio builder, an optimizer to analyze historical data and market trends, and a statistical toolkit to enable users to review and evaluate portfolio performance. The platform’s Custom Features Suite allows users to vote on future platform enhancements and additions. The Product Launch Pad gives users the ability to launch structured notes, transforming investment strategies into tradable and liquid securities.
Klauser put the new offering in the context of the company’s overall philosophy as a “digital-first company.” He explained, “We conscientiously push technological boundaries while upholding core principles and stringent controls. Our relentless focus remains on our customer, shaping the platform based on their evolving needs in terms of performance, personalization, and scalability.”
The new product launch comes in the wake of aisot’s rebrand in July. In addition to a preview of the company’s AI Insights Platform and a new website, aisot also shared information about aisot Labs, the firm’s AI engine, as well as the company’s new investment products. These include aisot’s AI Balanced Digital Assets. An Actively Managed Certificate that enables investors to participate in the performance of an underlying investment strategy, AI Balanced Digital Assets is a long only, AI-driven, crypto portfolio built to match the volatility of a Bitcoin or Ethereum tracker while at the same time maximizing performance.
aisot has raised a total of $2.5 million (CHF 2.3 million) in funding, most recently securing $2 million (CHF 1.8 million) in seed capital this spring. The round was led by Haute Capital Partners, with angel investors, including members of the Swiss ICT Investor Club (SICTIC), also participating. The investment will enable aisot to add to its team, drive continued product development, and support the company’s growth projects.
Haute CEO and Chairman Thibault Leroy Bürki praised aisot as “a leading provider of AI solutions for asset and wealth management.” He added, “We chose aisot for their innovative approach to wealth management, advanced AI engine, and ability to generate alpha in real-time … aisot’s AI engine provides clients with the amazing ability to adjust customized portfolios to market trends in real-time while generating alpha.”
Analytics and monitoring solutions company Anodot has launched CostGPT to help businesses monitor cloud costs.
Anodot’s CostGPT leverages AI to enable business managers to learn about and manage their cloud costs data conversationally via chat.
Headquartered in Virginia, Anodot made its Finovate debut last year at FinovateEurope in London.
Advanced analytics and monitoring solutions provider Anodot has unveiled its latest solution, CostGPT. The new AI-powered offering enables cloud users to access accurate and personalized analysis of their cloud costs. With CostGPT, users will be able to better address everything from complex pricing models to cloud resource allocation with a simple query.
In addition to being able to ask the platform questions about cloud costs via chat, CostGPT provides optimization recommendations to help users better understand their cloud spending. The technology helps businesses avoid unnecessary costs, optimize resource utilization, and leverages real-time, intuitive data visualizations to make analysis, planning, and decision-making easier.
“This feature enables users to interact with their cloud cost data conversationally, making it more accessible and effortless than ever before,” Anodot Head of Product Limor Tepper said. “It’s all about ensuring that our users have the answers they need at their fingertips. And it doesn’t stop at text responses; it supplies the answers with graphical results that are easy to understand at a glance.”
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Ashburn, Virginia, Anodot made its Finovate debut at FinovateEurope 2022. At the event, the company demoed its Payments Monitoring Tool. The technology leverages AI to monitor and correlate payments activity and business performance. This enables Anodot to spot potential issues and provide users with actionable alerts and forecasts in real-time. Businesses use Anodot to monitor a wide range of operations from front end applications to APIs to payments. Anodot says it has helped companies cut the time-to-detection of revenue-critical issues by up to 80%.
Anodot has raised $64.5 million in funding from investors including Alicorn Venture Capital and Redline Capital. Also last month, Anodot announced a “long-term strategic partnership” with DevOps and FinOps services Automat-IT. The partnership is designed to help consumers maximize their deployments on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Over the summer, Anodot released its annual State of Cloud Cost survey. The report highlighted trends such as the rise of third-party solutions and the challenge of cloud cost transparency.
QuickBooks launched QuickBooks Bill Pay to bring accounts payable automation and processes to small business clients.
The new product is integrated into the QuickBooks platform and aims to help users manage bill payments to vendors and contractors.
The announcement comes after the company ended a long-standing relationship with Bill.com.
Intuit’s QuickBooks unveiled QuickBooks Bill Pay today to bring accounts payable (AP) automation to its business users.
Aimed at small-to-mid-sized businesses, the new bill pay tool will help Quickbooks’ clients track and automate their bill payments within its platform. The new tool also includes a suite of financial and accounting tools such as digitized record-keeping, vendor management, and advanced controls with customizable permissions for teams.
By integrating a bill payment tool into its existing platform, the company makes it easier for business users to manage bill payments to vendors and contractors. Additionally, by bringing AP processes into a single solution, businesses will have better cash flow and money movement visibility and may mitigate missed and late payments.
“Across the QuickBooks platform, we’re revolutionizing money movement to improve the number-one problem small businesses face – cash flow – which impacts their success rates,” said Intuit Senior Vice President of the QuickBooks Money Platform David Talach.
With Bill Pay, businesses can:
Set permissions and rules to customize the bill approval process for different team members
Import vendor invoices and to automatically create a bill
Keep digital records of bills and payments in one place
Send electronic payments or paper checks without issuing and mailing them
View and file 1099s for vendors
“QuickBooks Bill Pay is a key addition to our ecosystem as we aim to deliver a singular, end-to-end financial solution for small businesses to manage their money. Integrating Bill Pay with our other money offerings enables our customers to leverage game-changing automation capabilities and have the visibility and clarity they need when it comes to their finances,” added Talach.
QuickBooks has a three-tiered pricing plan for the Bill Pay tool, ranging from free to $45 per month. The base level includes five free ACH payments per month while the upper tiers include more ACH payments per month, custom bill approval workflows, unlimited 1099s for vendors, and predefined team permissions.
Founded in 1983, QuickBooks is one of the oldest fintech solutions for small businesses. The company has undergone recent friction when it comes to integrated bill pay, having leveraged a partnership with Bill.com for several years, and later ending that relationship in favor of a partnership with Melio.
QuickBooks is owned by Intuit, a public company that trades on the NASDAQ under the ticker INTU and has a current market capitalization of $151 billion.
Investment app Stash announced a $40 million investment on Friday. The investment was led by T. Rowe Price Investment Management.
The New York-based company also announced that former New York Stock Exchange CFO Amy Butte was joining the company as its first-ever independent audit chair.
Stash made its Finovate debut in 2017 at FinovateFall.
Finishing the week with a bang is investment app Stash, which announced a new $40 million investment and first-ever independent audit chair on Friday.
The investment comes courtesy of T. Rowe Rice Investment Management, as well as a combination of strategic and existing investors including Goodwater Capital and Union Square Ventures. The first-ever independent audit chair comes courtesy of former NYSE Chief Financial Officer Amy Butte.
“The addition of Amy, who is amongst the most accomplished leaders in the financial services space, plus a new round of financing from marquee investors, are clear indicators of the strength of Stash’s business,” Stash CEO Liza Landsman said. “It also signals our widely ambitious future.”
A recognized leader in financial services, Butte has taken companies public as a director, advisor, and CFO, including the IPO of the New York Stock Exchange. Butte currently sits on the boards of Bain Capital Specialty Finance and DigitalOcean, and served on the boards of BNP Paribas and Fidelity Strategic Advisers Funds for seven and six years, respectively. In a statement, Butte underscored Stash’s unique approach to helping individuals get started on the road to investing.
“(Stash) is not a tool – it is a business,” Butte said. “It is not simply replicating a traditional workflow online. Rather, it is encouraging and teaching an underrepresented (traditionally ignored) customer segment about the value of investing through a subscription model. It is leveraging technology to make finance both accessible and also understandable.”
A Finovate alum since 2017, Stash offers an investing app that helps users build long-term wealth. With automated investment plans starting as low as $3 a month, Stash helps users build diversified investment Smart Portfolios – that offer exposure to stocks, ETFs, and even cryptocurrencies. Stash also offers personalized investment advice, automated recurring investing, and dividend reinvestments. Stash’s “Stock-Back” debit card solution enables users to earn up to 3% back in stock from regular purchases like gas and groceries.
In the past year alone, Stash has topped $100 million in annual revenue and now includes two million active subscribers on its platform. These subscribers have set aside nearly $3 billion due to regular, automated deposits averaging just $33.
Stash’s fundraising news comes just a few months after the company introduced new Chief Technology Officer Chien-Liang Chou, as well as launched its Internal Developer Portal (IDP), Elevate. Headquartered in New York, Stash was founded in 2015.
Fraud analytics and risk management company Lenvi has partnered with secured finance technology provider Lendscape.
The integrated platform will help lenders identify fraud faster, and provide better, more seamless experiences for customers.
Headquartered in Leeds, U.K., Lenvi made its Finovate debut earlier this year at FinovateEurope.
Here’s some news that slipped under the radar in recent days and weeks. Lenvi, a Leeds-based fintech that made its Finovate debut at FinovateEurope earlier this year, has announced a partnership with secured finance technology provider Lendscape. Together, the two companies are offering enhanced digital risk management for lenders. The integrated platform will help lenders identify fraud faster, and provide better, more seamless experiences for customers.
“This collaboration, and the integration of our revolutionary mix of workflow technology and next-level credit risk analytics with Lendscape’s powerful lending technology, represents a major step forward in advancing the commercial finance industry’s capabilities,” Lenvi Chief Executive Officer Richard Carter said.
Lenvi brings an advanced, real-time credit risk analytics solution to the partnership. Combined with Lendscape’s lending technology, the joint offering will help lenders establish creditworthiness faster and more accurately. The collaboration will also support smarter lending decisions throughout the entire loan lifecycle – from application to servicing.
“This partnership allows us to give providers a more holistic view of creditworthiness, empowering them to work smarter, optimize their lending operations, or ultimately unlock more working capital for their SME customers,” Lendscape CEO Kevin Day said.
Lendscape provides 120+ banks and lenders with an end-to-end platform that enables them to offer a wide range of financing products. Both institutional and SME lenders can benefit from the ability to build and deliver innovative financing solutions by using Lendscape’s technology. Lendscape was founded as general IT services provider Hill Price Davison in 1972. The company changed its name to HPD Software in 2000, and rebranded as Lendscape two years later. In July of this year, Lendscape announced that it had secured a “significant investment” from private equity firm Bowmark Capital.
In its Finovate debut in March, Lenvi demonstrated its new loan management platform, PF1. The solution supports a wide range of lending types – from mortgages to unsecured loans. PF1 combines a broad and extendable API-first party support, along with comprehensive lending functionality. This allows for feature toggling along with a fully automated online deployments. At the same time, a React user interface and APIs give users the ability to take advantage of a highly configurable workflow engine while remaining compliant and secure.
Founded in 1988, Lenvi works with more than 150+ lenders, providing lendtech solutions in loan software and risk analytics. The company has managed more than $122 billion (£100 billion) in credit assets on behalf of clients, and processes a new loan application every five seconds on its platform.
Fiserv has partnered with Plaid to offer its bank clients API-based connectivity to third-party applications on Plaid’s network.
The agreement leverages Fiserv’s AllData Connect to allow credential-free data sharing.
Fiserv has signed a similar consumer-permissioned data sharing agreements with Akoya, MX, and Finicity.
Digital banking and payments solutions company Fiserv has partnered with financial infrastructure fintech Plaid this week. The two have formed a data-sharing agreement that will offer Fiserv’s 3,000 bank and credit union clients API-based connectivity to the 8,000+ applications on Plaid’s network.
The data-sharing agreement, which will leverage Fiserv’s AllData Connect, will ultimately benefit the end consumer. The deal will help consumers who bank with Fiserv clients share their financial information with third-party financial apps and services such as Venmo, Chime, SoFi, and Betterment.
“Our partnership with Plaid allows banks and credit unions to empower consumers to access their financial information beyond the financial institution, while maintaining their trusted role at the center of people’s financial lives,” said Fiserv President of Digital Payments Matt Wilcox. “By facilitating access to a broad range of capabilities and experiences through third-party apps and services we are charting a course towards an open finance ecosystem that prioritizes data privacy, consumer access, and choice.”
Data sharing via API connectivity instead of an alternative such as screen-scraping offers end users a more seamless way to integrate their financial data into third-party platforms. The API connection also provides consumers more security than screen-scraping, a process that requires them to share their bank login credentials with a third party, which may not have the same level of security as a bank. The data sharing will be secure, transparent, and compliant with the anticipated regulatory guidance outlined by Dodd Frank 1033.
FDX Managing Director Don Cardinal called the relationship between Fiserv and Plaid “a leap forward for direct data sharing and great news for the ecosystem.”
Fiserv’s AllData Connect launched in 2020 and is part of the company’s AllData Aggregation product suite, a set of tools that enables credential-free data sharing. AllData Connect validates the consumer with their respective financial institution and issues a token employed by third parties to access and update that consumer’s data via the AllData Connect platform.
Fiserv signed a similar consumer-permissioned data agreement with Akoya in August and has also partnered with MX and Finicity for data sharing.
Fiserv was founded in 1984 and offers solutions that are used in nearly six million merchant locations and almost 10,000 financial institution clients. The company powers 12,000 financial transactions each second. Fiserv is listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker FI and has a market capitalization of $68.8 billion.
Plaid helps 12,000+ financial institutions offer their customers access to its network of 8,000+ third party financial services via a suite of APIs that connects consumers, financial institutions, and developers. The company also offers identity verification, balance checks, risk assessment scoring, transaction analytics, and more. Plaid was founded in 2013 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
Fraud and risk platform DataVisor launched its new AI Co-Pilot solution to enhance real-time fraud defense.
AI Co-Pilot includes AI-automated rule tuning, feature generation and automated debugging, and improved explainability among its features.
DataVisor made its Finovate debut last month at FinovateFall in New York.
Less than a month after making its Finovate debut at FinovateFall, fraud and risk platform DataVisor has launchedAI Co-Pilot. The new offering is a generative AI-facilitated fraud solution designed to catch fraud 20x faster than traditional methods.
AI Co-Pilot helps financial institutions detect fraud in real-time while at the same time reducing the number of false positives. This enables financial institutions to provide effective fraud defense without compromising the user experience with excessive friction.
DataVisor co-founder and CEO Yinglian Xie noted that innovation in the payment space required innovation in the fraud prevention space, as well. With bank transfer and payment fraud losses in the U.S. topping $1.58 billion last year, concerns over fraud risks can serve as an impediment to many financial institutions – especially smaller FIs and credit unions – when it comes to embracing instant payments and other new services that their customers and members want.
“Built on groundbreaking Generative AI technology, DataVisor’s AI Co-Pilot gives financial institutions better intelligence and automation for more effective fraud detection and prevention,” Xie said. “This innovative solution is more accurate, reacts to fraud trends much faster, and improves user experiences and customer support.”
Among the new capabilities delivered by DataVisor’s AI Co-Pilot are AI-automated rule tuning to accelerate the fraud response and improve accuracy, feature generation and automated debugging, and improved explainability to ensure transparency.
“(AI Co-Pilot) considerably reduces the need for analyst resources,” Xie added. “This advancement signifies a pivotal step toward enhanced security and efficiency across the industry.”
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Mountain View, California, DataVisor demoed its fraud and risk platform at FinovateFall last month. At the event, DataVisor’s Ryan Nichols and Kevin McWey showed how the technology’s rules engine, device intelligence, decision engine, and case management combine to enhance fraud detection and minimize losses.
DataVisor has raised more than $94 million in funding. The company includes CMFG Ventures and NewView Capital among its investors. Last month, DataVisor introduced new Chief Revenue Officer Kevin McWey. In July, the company announced that it had partnered with cyber and fraud threat intelligence specialist Q6 Cyber.
Data intelligence startup Curinos announced a new strategic collaboration with mortgage capital markets technology company Polly.
Polly will integrate Curinos’ market pricing data into its Product and Pricing Engine (PPE).
Curinos made its Finovate debut earlier this year at FinovateSpring.
Data intelligence startup Curinos has forged a new partnership with Polly, a company that provides mortgage capital markets technology. Polly will integrate Curinos’ market pricing data into its Product and Pricing Engine (PPE) to produce what both companies are calling the largest competitive dataset gathered from industry third parties.
“Our partnership will enable clients to seamlessly analyze their market position and support effective margin decisions without leaving their pricing engine,” Curinos EVP of Real Estate and Consumer Lending Brandonn Dukes explained. “These benefits will allow users to establish proactive margin management processes and remain competitive in any market environment.”
A product of the combination of Novantas and Informa’s FBX business, Curinos offers technology that helps financial institutions make better, faster, and more profitable data-driven decisions. Curinos’ technology facilitates access to comprehensive datasets and analytics, smart technologies, and connected behavioral insights, and can be applied across financial services ranging from deposits to lending.
A new Finovate alum, Curinos made its Finovate debut earlier this year at FinovateSpring. At the conference, the company demonstrated its Amplero Personalization Optimizer. Designed for high-impact use cases, the technology leverages innovations in marketing automation to deliver hyper-personalized omnichannel experiences in minutes, rather than months. Founded in 2021, Curinos also forged a partnership earlier this year with customer intelligence technology and service provider Touchpoint Group.
Polly Chief Revenue Officer Parvesh Sahi highlighted the way the new integration will help lenders, as well as enable Polly to accelerate its own efforts with regards to business intelligence. “Not only does this collaboration enable lenders to optimize their operations and maximize profitability with new data and services today, but it also lays the groundwork for Polly’s long-term data and analytics strategy,” Sahi said.
Founded in 2019, Polly helps banks, credit unions, and mortgage lenders automate and optimize the entire capital markets value chain. From rate lock to loan sale and delivery, Polly offers a vertically integrated capital markets solution that helps lenders scale their mortgage operations. The company is based in San Francisco, California. Adam Carmel is founder and CEO.
Content and technology company Thomson Reuterslaunched an e-invoicing product called ONESOURCEE-Invoicing this week, a tool that marries e-invoicing and tax compliance.
The new offering will be added to Thomson Reuters’ ONESOURCE software suite. It will not only help users manage global tax compliance– which is already available within the ONESOURCE software line– but will also bring in e-invoicing compliance by connecting financial systems and ERP systems.
Thomson Reuters has partnered with Pagero to leverage its Smart Business Network that connects buyers and sellers to exchange orders, invoices, payment instructions, and other business documents. Pagero will help automate the process and ensure compliance.
