Senior level discussions continue with a view toward designing application prototypes within the next few months. Furthermore, Finzat has opened a dialogue with a nationally recognized provider of risk management software and consulting services to over 120 institutional clients and several housing GSEs. A framework for a formal arrangement between the two parties is currently being formulated.

Among the firm’s activities are those that involve the assembly and dissemination of sensitive personal data, offering potential for Finzat and blockchain technology.
