UK-based specialist lender United Trust Bank (UTB) has selected technology provider Alfa to strengthen its asset finance business.
As part of the collaboration, UTB has started migrating its asset finance operations to the Alfa System software.
The integration is anticipated to accelerate UTB’s operations, allowing it to quickly underwrite proposals and offer payouts.
Alfa also offers integration with APIs, enabling the lender to connect with brokers’ proposal system.
Furthermore, Alfa provides an auto-underwriting feature for proposals that fall into pre-set parameters.
Louise McIntosh, who is the asset finance head of operations at UTB, will oversee the migration, which is expected to start benefitting clients by the end of this year.
