BR etc pending.o Continuous invention with innovation (3 new patent family’s filed in last 6 months)o scale / take-up through either demand growth or regulated growtho OTT philosophy with almost zero capital infrastructure.

• Unregulated digital services success most recently based upon the Silicon Valley VC approach, driven by a large domestic US economy, mass marketing and generic (global) propositions.
• Regulated sector growth requires focused innovation, localized approach + specialized services > leading to online AML regulated sector services, including Fintech, and Regtech
• Many regulated sector businesses have extreme difficulty in porting their business model to online, due to regulatory requirements and/or impact on customer experience.

• Multiple vendors• Different vendor mix in each country• Information fragmentation• Compliance challenges• Manual processes, with ‘follow the sun’ localised
team normally required.• High costs• Long processing delays with complex customer
onboarding processes• High customer abandonment
ISX replaces the fragmented process via a single API to present a single unified solution, spanning operations across all countries in which our prospective customers are likely to operate. Our services can be bundled or offered standalone.
Existing solutions: a fragmented process

“Last Century” Experian or ‘GBG’ style static, database search/match (UK, US, AU + a few more)
“Early Last Century “ Face to face checks Certified / Notarised: posted/uploaded documents*
• No dynamic means to include customer on request if not already a historic customer of a credit reporting agency.
• Requires cross check of other databases.• Typical coverage less than 60% of online applicants• Failure of database check leads merchants to revert
back to last century face to face checks or notarised documents
• Pay on attempt – not linked to success
• We are the new player on the KYC scene• The incumbents are using last century technology, which
has serious limitations in terms of coverage, accuracy and conversion rates
• ISX has significant capability advantages in these and other areas, in addition to our regulatory convergent ‘paydentity’ service
• EU’s 4th AML Directive (enforced legislation) now specifically encompasses the gaming/wagering sector and comes in to force 26th June 2017
• Pay on payment success – linked to our customers’ success
