AnalytixInsight Inc V.ALY

Release from Sophic Capital part 2

[uppermost10]

Two key reasons supporting the high relevance of today's news for AnalytixInsight. Firstly, in our view, the InvestoPro trading platform will be considered an extension of the bank's online offerings both by Intesa Sanpaolo’s customers and the bank itself. We expect that regular updates by AnalytixInsight over time could support this view as the data pertaining to InvestoPro’s subscriber growth becomes clearer over the next 12 to 18 months. In this regard, today's announcement by Intesa Sanpaolo introducing InvestoPro to their customers represents a milestone event for AnalytixInsight, as such a move by a large bank demonstrates executive level support for the initiative within the bank, which should aid in the overall success of the InvestoPro platform. Secondly, given the platform's core tenet of executing trades for retail investors while providing independent AI-driven research and investment quality analysis to guide the investment process, it checks the boxes of relevant compliance and regulatory considerations. As a result, InvestoPro could grow in scope within Intesa Sanpaolo’s offering suite. Doing so could enable the bank to add more FinTech features to the platform such as electronic payment services or crypto trading. These would generate greater revenue for Intesa Sanpaolo, MarketWall, and AnalytixInsight through its 49% ownership stake.

In Sophic Capital’s AnalytixInsight AI/ML Financial Services Platformreport published November 9, 2020, we detailed the increasing importance of machine produced financial research and artificial intelligence in the investment industry. Our report profiled how AnalytixInsight created CapitalCube to serve this need. CapitalCube covers over 50,000 global equities, and its artificial intelligence (“AI”) based reports and subscription modules are integrated into the offering, making InvestoPro one of the world’s only AI-enabled online trading platforms. These tools help investors educate themselves with the operating of financial markets and receive guidance within a very wide range of investment topics. Most importantly, however, these tools match investors to investment opportunities that best fit their objectives and risk profiles.
