"Through streamlined access to the external data ecosystem, ANZ has transformed its digital lending capabilities"

- Guy Mendelson, Portfolio Lead - Business Owners, ANZ

  • ‍ANZ, a leading financial institution, is providing conditional approval on unsecured lending for small business customers in less than 20 minutes via ANZ GoBiz.

  • ANZ GoBiz enables the origination of small business loans through a digital workflow that leverages Feedzai Orchestration Solution to get fast, reliable and frictionless access to the external data ecosystem.

Background

Digitalization of the lending process has transformed traditionally manual and paper-intensive processes, and brought immense benefit to the banks that have embraced it and the customers that it has served — delivering more informed lending decisions, improving the customer experience, providing significant cost savings, and delivering faster response times.

An integral part of this is the ability to streamline access to external data, such as accounting data from Accounting Software Platforms (ASPs).

Integrating and deploying external data workflows, however, is a significant challenge, so ANZ partnered with Feedzai to co-develop ANZ GoBiz, and leverage Feedzaiʼs rapid deployment capabilities and easy access to external data to support the lending decision process.

Overview

ANZ GoBiz is a sophisticated online lending platform that allows ANZ to leverage external data to provide a rapid decision on conditional lending for small business customers.

ANZ GoBiz needed a front-end user interface that delivered an optimal customer experience, secure technology that supported the configuration, transformation and integration of external data sources, as well as integration compatibility with ANZʼs existing services, and back-end logic to support the digital experience in accordance with ANZʼs lending requirements.

Partnering with Feedzai enabled ANZ to take advantage of the market leading Feedzai Orchestration Solution, built on AWS, to accelerate access to the external data ecosystem. The flexible, secure and adaptable technology, overcomes the challenges typically associated with deploying new data workflows or digital applications. A testament to this has been being able to accommodate multiple changes to support extensions to the Government Guarantee Scheme Facilities (GGS).

Scalable API solutions, configured for ANZ GoBiz, enables automated access to multiple external data sources, providing a secure way of collecting, verifying, manipulating and providing data on ANZ GoBiz applicants. Accounting data from Accounting Software Providers (ASPʼs), following customer consent, is used to verify financial eligibility, whilst business firmographics and business registry data is used to meet KYB requirements.

With back-end logic that encompasses balance sheet, P&L and OFI liabilities, ANZ now benefits from a market leading lending decision engine.

Feedzai’s technology is applicable to multiple key business processes, providing a foundational platform to automate manual workflows and extend the bankʼs use of external data.
