Raleigh, N.C. and Austin, TX, July 25, 2023 – Abrigo, the top lending software solution, and Vertical IQ, the leader in Industry Intelligence, announced a partnership today that will provide industry insights within the Abrigo platform to support credit analysts for underwriting, risk analysis, credit memos, and more.

Covering more than 97% of the economic revenue in the U.S. and Canada, Vertical IQ’s timely, specific, and relevant Industry Intelligence provides actionable and targeted industry content that enables users to build confidence and credibility and better engage with prospects and customers. With this integration, Abrigo users will have access to the Vertical IQ platform’s financial benchmarks and specialized industry insights right at their fingertips, saving them time and streamlining the lending process.

“This new integration will be a tremendous asset for our business bankers,” said Nolan Gesher, VP of Client Services at Abrigo. “We were looking for a solution that could make our customers better equipped to service their SMB and commercial borrowers through industry experience, and Vertical IQ fit the mold perfectly.

Integration benefits

This includes highly relevant Call Prep Questions, which will appear as outstanding activities on Abrigo’s customer summary page.
  • Surface relevant content: Vertical IQ’s industry content and insights will be available in Abrigo’s document library, where users can access a Credit and Risk Brief to provide context around an industry after submitting loan application data. This brief will incorporate focused Industry Intelligence that benefits users by solidifying their value proposition.
  • Provide support for credit analysts: The underwriting metrics from the Vertical IQ platform will be provided on Abrigo’s Customer Profile, which includes benchmarks for analysts to assess risk and underwrite against.

“Abrigo’s intuitive platform makes it a perfect place for Industry Intelligence to live,” said Paul Hock, VP of Strategic Partnerships at Vertical IQ. “The actionable, convenient and focused credit underwriting and risk information from Vertical IQ will save Abrigo users time and drive efficiencies, and the integration will help boost engagement on the Vertical IQ platform.
