IdentityMind Global Listed as a "Sample Vendor" for RegTech in Gartner's Hype Cycle for Digital Banking Transformation, 2018

PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- IdentityMind Global(TM), Digital Identities You Can Trust, today announced that it has been identified as a Sample Vendor for RegTech in the Gartner "Hype Cycle for Digital Banking Transformation, 2018*," published July 25, 2018, Alistair Newton.

"We're excited to be named a Sample Vendor in RegTech in Gartner's "Hype Cycle for Digital Banking Transformation, 2018," said Jose Caldera, Chief Products and Marketing Officer, IdentityMind Global. "Financial institutions (FIs) are pressed to move faster as FinTech continues to push the envelope to onboard younger generations of the unbanked and underbanked. FIs need to become more nimble and efficient in their processes so they can expand their reach and services appealing to new market demands. IdentityMind's RegTech Version 2.0 platform enables FIs to build bridges and break down infrastructure silos by using its digital Identities-based platform as the underlying foundation to evaluate risk and compliance."

IdentityMind's Version 2.0 trusted digital identities-based platform for risk and compliance represents years of research in digital identities, machine learning, anomaly detection, regulatory compliance, product development, and close consultation with IdentityMInd clients. It enables clients' compliance and risk analysts to take a risk-based approach based on the understanding of the user behind every transaction.

According to Gartner, "The complexity and cost of regulatory compliance are growing worldwide. Financial services firms are constantly on the lookout for ways to reduce the cost and burden of compliance while minimizing risk."

"RegTech will have tangible measurable benefits in reducing the cost of compliance, the number of incidences of failure to comply and associated fines," according to Gartner. "However, its greatest potential is not easily measurable: better risk management, which will allow a firm to use innovative tools to be more agile and adaptive. This will allow risk to be managed with lower overhead than might otherwise be expected. The reduced mental burden on employees will mean they will have less fear of doing the wrong thing, which will directly impact product development. And these same tools will enable business operations to run more efficiently and profitably."

IdentityMind was previously recognized by Gartner in 2018:
