Our take
nCino offers financial institutions an end-to-end cloud-based operating system that integrates with their core systems, rather than supplanting them. This allows them to streamline interactions between customers and staff, which speeds up onboarding, transactions, reporting and more.
Since launching in a community bank in North Carolina in 2012, nCino’s trajectory has been extraordinary. It now boasts over 1800 global customers and even went public in 2020. Indeed, despite the tough FinTech landscape of recent years, the company's performance has remained strong.
Lately, nCino has worked to expand its presence in the global south, signing deals with major banks in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. It has also partnered with Codat in order to speed up loan underwriting, and unveiled an AI-powered conversational copilot tool tailored specifically for banks.
