Our take
The regulatory technology market is set to see a big jump in the coming years. With market drivers including new regulations in the financial sector and rising instances of money laundering globally, regulatory technology companies are going to have some big opportunities to get their teeth into.
Fenergo is a major player in this industry. In a nutshell, Fenergo handles client and regulatory technology for financial services, providing Client Lifecycle Management (CLM) software solutions for major financial institutions. Used by over 30 of the top 50 financial institutions in the world, Fenergo enables its clients to be compliant with regulations whilst maintaining an excellent client experience. Creating an 82% faster onboarding process with a 40% reduction in overall costs, the financial advantages for users are clear.

With 10 offices worldwide and clients including Santander and Bank of China, Fenergo looks to be in a very strong position. That being said, this is a market that is changing fast, and growing adoption of artificial intelligence, cloud computing and machine learning in particular will bring interesting opportunities and challenges for Fenergo in the years to come.
