Within our technology, we aim to transform services available to SMBs within community banking, across the US.”

Keith Riddle – CEO of BankFi Americas – added, “I’ve been following BankiFi’s incredible success in partnering with financial institutions to serve SMBs in the UK and realized the importance of enabling a comprehensive open cash management solution for financial institutions and their SMBs within the U. I’m delighted to take the reins at BankiFi US and build on what the UK team is doing in terms of digitising the critical small business workflows and embedding the solution within financial institutions’ digital channels, in what is certainly an exciting time for the sector.”
