Why nCino

Why nCino

With more than 28,000 financial institutions worldwide, banking is one of the largest and most complex industries in the global economy and is characterized by intense competition between incumbent financial institutions, as well as with new challenger banks and non-bank lenders. This competitive environment, combined with high levels of regulatory oversight and persistently low interest rates over the last several years, can make executing and delivering favorable financial results difficult for financial institutions. Furthermore, technologies like social media, mobile and online commerce are challenging financial institutions to engage with clients and employees more efficiently, intelligently and transparently through new channels. In response to these challenges, many financial institutions have embarked on digital transformations, investing in technology to make their operations more client focused, automated and agile.

We believe our position as a leading global provider of cloud banking software for financial institutions is built on a foundation of the following strengths:

  • Built by Bankers for Bankers. nCino was started by banking professionals who recognized the need for a single cloud platform to address the endemic challenges faced by financial institutions. This heritage is the foundation of our deep banking domain expertise, which differentiates us and continues to drive our strategy to design software that addresses the unique challenges of our financial institution customers globally.
  • Cloud Banking Technology Pioneer and Market Leader. The nCino Bank Operating System was developed from inception as a native cloud application and we believe our over eight year track record of technology innovation in digitally transforming financial institutions distinguishes us in the market. As a first mover in this sector, we have developed trusted relationships and a reputation for successfully implementing our solution with financial institutions of all sizes in multiple geographies.
  • Single SaaS Platform. We deliver a single SaaS platform that spans business lines and replaces point and other legacy technology solutions for client onboarding, loan origination and deposit account opening. This approach allows financial institutions to leverage common data sets and workflow across lines of business, providing a consistent and engaging digital experience for employees and clients and a more comprehensive view of client relationships.
  • Measurable Return on Investment. The nCino Bank Operating System provides quantifiable results for our customers, including increased client growth and retention, loan volume and efficiency and reduced loan closing times, policy exceptions and operating costs. Our solution empowers our customers with data driven, real-time insights into their business performance, enabling them to better measure and manage their operations.
  • Empowering the Intelligent Enterprise. Through our nIQ applications, we leverage analytics and AI/ML to help financial institutions become more predictive, personalized and proactive. nIQ automates data extraction and analysis, allowing our customers to focus on more value-add activities, and employs predictive analytics to, for example, assist in understanding risk and fair lending compliance. nIQ drives personalized experiences by embedding actionable information throughout the nCino Bank Operating System, which enables our customers to make more informed decisions in real time at the point of production.
  • Award-Winning Culture. We are in the business of fundamentally changing the way financial institutions operate. To transform an industry, we believe it is essential to have a company culture that not only empowers its employees to challenge the status quo, but also emboldens them to drive change and have a passion for customer success. For these reasons, we have built nCino with a cultural foundation based on our six core values. We believe our culture is the foundation for the successful execution of our strategy and, as a result, is a critical strength of our organization. In recognition of our continued focus on employee engagement, satisfaction and culture, we have received numerous awards, including being named the 2019 #1 Best Place to Work in Financial Technology by American Banker.
