Our take
MeridianLink provides modern software platforms for financial institutions and consumer reporting agencies. Specifically, it powers digital lending and account opening for the former and data verifications for the latter.
The company has been trusted for over 20 years and has remained adaptable and open to change with the industry, such as its recent addition of engagement features that offer new ways to help financial services drive growth, reach target audiences and adjust campaigns to meet business and customer needs. It has therefore maintained a number of impressive customers, from BankPlus and American United to FirstBank and TwinStar.
Building on this track record, MeridianLink was recently acquired by Centerbridge Partners, marking an important step forward. Going private in this $2B deal gives the company flexibility to accelerate innovation, expandi ts platform, and leverage AI and data more effectively. With Centerbridge's support, MeridianLink is in a good position to strengthen its competitive edge and continue helping financial institutions grow in a rapidly evolving market.
