(“Victor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MVB Edge Ventures, Inc.
Among hundreds of nominees, 10 winners were ultimately selected by a panel of distinguished judges from around the world who are at the forefront of innovation in the financial services sector. MVB was selected for the Innovation in Commercial Banking Onboarding Experience category based on originality and impact for its entry “Innovation: Onboarding Fintechs Better, Faster, Stronger…The Victor (ad)Vantage.”
“We found that it took a substantial amount of time to make our way through the onboarding process for our Fintech clients. There were several critical components to this process, each of which required a different tool than the rest to be effective,” said Matt West, MVB Chief Strategy Officer. “We set out to build the technology that would combine the efforts of these various components into a single solution, saving our Team and our clients time and hassle.”
“MVB and Victor have invested time, energy and dollars into our commitment to incubating innovation,” said Angela Lucas, MVB Chief Risk Officer. “Because of that, we’ve seen onboarding turnaround times improve by 100% or more than what we saw prior to this initiative while preserving our high standard of regulatory compliance.”
