According to Dr. Justin Smith, SVP, CUO and longtime head of R&D at Applied, the collaboration of talent on each side will result in benefits to both from the outset in addition to the expansion of the intellectual and uniquely developed technological faculties of each: “Over the long term each of our companies will profit through enhanced research and development including Applied’s highly accomplished statisticians, mathematicians, data scientists and actuaries. Concirrus’ team is focused in the UK and India, forming a natural complement to Applied’s teams in the US and Philippines.” Dr. Smith further noted, “Applied has built its own systems for insurance and for its many other operations, devoting significant resources to R&D. The result has been a clear competitive advantage of our underwriting and claims processes. We look forward to this collaboration of technological powers and capacities to be put to work internationally for the clients of both organizations.”

Mr. Andrew Yeoman, CEO, Concirrus, expressed similar optimism for the accord: “This partnership will significantly bolster our business and provide an underlying strength and stability to our customers. We have stabilized our operating platform and our growth plans will proceed in the expansion of our digital solutions for specialty insurance, in insurance data analysis, advanced modeling and the application of new technologies.” He continued, “Packaged, off-the-shelf solutions continue to fall short of the needs of insurers and reinsurers, and building scalable models and proprietary systems architecture is cost prohibitive. This partnership will see Concirrus offering extraordinary bespoke solutions on a common platform that will optimize technology investment value and returns.”

Dr. Smith noted that the transaction, while far from the largest undertaken by Applied, will be one of the more important and critical as other acquisitions are realized, requiring technological expertise.

The parties expressed their thanks to Torch Partners, advisers to Software and Technology sectors, for its role in advising the strategic partnership.

Additionally, Baker Hill has expanded relationships with several existing clients, migrating 17 financial institutions to the company’s flagship product, Baker Hill NextGen®, an award-winning, end-to-end loan origination, risk management and analytics platform.

Virginia-based TowneBank is one of the many Baker Hill clients that upgraded to the full NextGen® suite last year.

Our team will use it for consumer, small business and commercial loans,” said Brad Schwartz, President & Chief Operating Officer at TowneBank. “Given our history of working with Baker Hill and the value their technology consistently delivers, we look forward to our continued partnership together.”

“Last year was a record year for Baker Hill and the milestones we achieved are a testament to the value our team and technology provides to the financial services industry,” said John M. Deignan, president and CEO of Baker Hill. “I’m proud of my fellow colleagues for the positive impact they have made, both within our company and for our financial institution clients, despite ongoing economic uncertainties. As we head into 2023, I expect this momentum to continue, especially as more financial institutions seek to drive efficiencies in their lending workflows and manage portfolio risk in a rising rate environment.”

Baker Hill anticipates another year of strong growth in 2023 and the company remains dedicated to empowering its financial institution clients with world-class loan origination and portfolio risk management technology. After achieving numerous milestones last year and growing its client roster, Baker Hill also expects to host its largest user conference yet, Prosper 2023, which will take place April 23^rd – 25^th in Scottsdale, Arizona.

With docAnalytics, even the most complex documents are turned into rich data points that conform to industry or proprietary datasets. The data points are then made available within an easy-to-use application enabling complex analysis across a large document portfolio and the ability to downstream data to other systems or stakeholders, including regulators.

The platform is designed for managing complex financing agreements (such as mortgage agreements and leases), trade documents (including shipping orders, bills of lading, and letters of credit), transactional agreements (spanning ISDA, IFXCO, GMRA, prime brokerage, securities lending, investment management and 23 other document types), and fixed income documents (including bonds, prospectuses and indentures). To date, more than 23,000 documents have been digitized, analyzed and ingested in the platform.

docAnalytics’ AI-driven data extraction is trained and maintained by Innodata’s in-house experts or can be managed by an organization’s internal specialists. Furthermore, the entire workflow is easily integrated with an API.

“The ability to transform complex documents into normalized, computer-addressable data is going to empower companies to react quickly and appropriately to an ever-changing landscape,” said Jack Abuhoff, Chief Executive Officer at Innodata. “While market participants often invest significant resources in the lengthy process of document creation, typically involving negotiators, lawyers, tax experts, credit officers and compliance officers, they have lacked the right tools to make it work. The result is that when something happens requiring quick thinking – such as a bankruptcy, default, acquisition, a ratings downgrade, or a net asset value decline – firms are faced with slow and cumbersome expert reviews. With our approach, the experts are augmented with true digital data and can react quickly to market events and manage their portfolios of documents proactively.”
