API-led Architecture to Support the Ambitious Growth Strategy of a UK Fintech Start-up

Business Challenge

A UK-based fintech start-up grappled with data management, system integration, process efficiency, regulatory compliance, and technology implementation. They sought an architecture that could handle vast financial data, integrate systems like NetReveal and SafeWatch, streamline case management, ensure AML and KYC compliance, and implement data analytics tools.
