Fintech matchmaking platform officially join Big4 giant KPMG
Further to an announcement issued by KPMG back in May 2017, regarding the acquisition of Matchi, a global fintech innovation and matchmaking platform, Matchi has issued a press release to announce the official join to KPMG.
According Matchi announcement:
Since we pioneered the concept of fintech matchmaking in 2013, Matchi has connected more than 100 leading banks and insurance companies around the world with implementable fintech innovations, including solutions in next generation payments, regtech, blockchain and P2P insurance.
Now, building on our highly successful 2-year global alliance, Matchi has become part of KPMG.
The Matchi team is delighted to officially join KPMG. The acquisition brings a tremendous opportunity for us to combine our specialist knowledge, skills and passion for driving innovation forward whilst supporting our clients around the world to successfully navigate the rapidly changing fintech environment.
“Combining the Matchi platform with the exceptional knowledge and skills of KPMG professionals creates a powerful fintech resource. Together, we are positioned to help clients find and deploy the fintech solutions that are most relevant to their business needs. We are fulfilling the promise of collaboration between financial institutions and fintech firms, which can ultimately benefit all consumers and businesses.”David Milligan, CEO, Matchi
Together we make it easy for financial institutions and fintechs to find each other and create positive impact. New features and functionality are being planned for the platform as well as new methodologies to make fintech / FI collaborations more successful.
“The acquisition of Matchi adds to the capabilities of KPMG firms to bring market-validated ideas to financial services clients’ toughest challenges. “The Matchi platform offers a curated approach that is much more rigorous than fintech databases that merely provide lists. It is designed to identify, match and enable collaboration with the most innovative fintechs and solutions to address specific issues being faced by financial institutions.” Ian Pollari, Global Co-leader of Fintech, KPMG International
