The annual ranking profiles the most innovative FinTech start-ups, scale-ups and established companies across the United Kingdom. Each year, Business Cloud – a North West media firm that runs a monthly technology publication and hosts events that cover everything from the Internet of Things and Big Data to AI and Digital Transformation – shortlist 250 firms that are voted on and selected by an expert judging panel in order to be whittled down to the nation’s 100 FinTech Disrupters.
This year, the judging panel includes Steve Chown, FinTech Accelerator Manager at NatWest; Tribeni Chougule, Head of Change Management at Visa; Gavin Brown, Senior Lecturer in Financial Technology at the University of Liverpool and Julian Wells, Director at Whitecap Consulting, FinTech North & FinTech West.
The accolade follows a successful few months for Planixs, with the company announcing new customer wins with SIX – the group that operates the infrastructure for the Swiss financial centre, and Banque Internationale à Luxembourg – the oldest bank in Luxembourg. The firm also successfully launched a Partner Programme this year – enabling complementary technology vendors to resell Planixs’ treasury solutions to banking and corporate organisations all over the world.
Founded in 2011, Manchester-based Planixs works with some of the world’s most prominent global financial institutions such as Lloyds Banking Group, Landesbank Baden-Württemberg (LBBW), Scotiabank and Zenith Bank amongst many, in providing its market-leading product suite Realiti® – a cloud-based and on premise technology solution suite that delivers real-time intraday cash, collateral and liquidity management capabilities to the financial services industry.
Last year, recognising that smaller banks have similar regulatory needs as larger banks but with budgetary constraints preventing their investment in an enterprise liquidity solution, Planixs launched Realiti® Essentials – an ‘out-of-the-box’, all-inclusive software solution that enables any bank or financial institution of even the smallest size to become regulatory compliant and manage liquidity using the lowest cost solution in the marketplace.
Neville Roberts, founder and CEO at Planixs said, “It is an honour to be recognised as one of the top disrupters in the FinTech space. Despite the current climate, we have experienced significant growth over the last 12 months, and accolades such as this reinforce that we are one of the leading FinTech firms”.
