Vancouver, BC. June 14, 2023 – Marble Financial Inc. (CSE: MRBL; OTC: MRBLF; FSE:2V0) (“Marble” or the “Company”), an AI-driven financial technology company, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Inverite Verification Inc., a leading provider of instant online verification solutions for lenders, continues to achieve new monthly record-breaking transactions for May 2023.
During the month of May, Inverite Verification processed a total of 123,513 transactions, representing a 9.3% increase in volume from the previous record setting month in March of this year. This achievement brings Inverite’s total Canadian customer profile thresholds to 3.0 million and continues to demonstrate industries acceptance and confidence with the Inverite Verification platform and products.
“Given the current challenging financial times of high interest rates and inflation, we are thrilled with the growth that Inverite is contributing to the Company’s top line revenue and the acceptance by the alternative lenders in Canada. By way of continued and positive transaction growth, our lending partners are showing that Inverite service offerings are providing value in their decision-making and adjudication process. We are specifically excited about the transaction growth related to our Inverite Score that assists lenders in determining the likelihood to pay and probability of default. This is extremely positive news for our AI and Data Science initiatives.“ said Karim Nanji, CEO of Marble Financial
By offering cutting-edge verification solutions, Inverite enables alternative lenders to assess loan applicants with speed and precision, thanks to its real-time online identity verification and bank account validation services. This allows for quick and informed approval decision-making, all within a matter of minutes. The company’s user-friendly platform is designed to streamline the verification process, allowing businesses to approve and onboard customers seamlessly while maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements.
Inverite’s Confidence Score is a powerful tool that is calculated by analyzing a customer’s bank account transactions, cashflow, payment history and other financial factors to predict the likelihood the customer is to make a payment or default. This score is then normalized against short-term loan performance to give alternative lenders an accurate assessment of the borrower’s likelihood to pay. This Confidence Score can be extremely useful for lending companies that offer short term loans, as it allows them to segment their portfolios and identify which borrowers are least likely to default on their loans. This information can be used to expedite the loan adjudication process and help lenders make more informed lending decisions; ultimately, resulting in lower default rates and increased profitability for the lending company.
Inverite anticipates continued growth in its client base and product offering, as lenders continue to demand more near real-time banking and credit data to better assess customer credit requests.
