MBI helps Financial Institutions unlock the power of their data to drive growth, boost cross-sell, and win more customers. MBI offers modular banking infrastructure, empowering your institution to activate your existing data like never before. You provide the data, we supply the tools. Together, we build towards the future. MBI began in 2018 as HMBradley, a consumer fintech specializing in elevated digital banking services designed for a modern customer. HMBradley offered a customer-centric platform rewarding consumers for their habits not just the money in their account, offering competitive annual-yield percentage, and best-in-class customer servicing program; raising over $70M in capital along the way. Too nimble to settle for expensive legacy vendors and products stagnated by an aging infrastructure, the team at HMBradley built its own backend infrastructure with an eye towards versatility and modularity to accommodate the increasing customer demand. Talking with Financial Institutions helped us realize we had cracked a code: Our modular banking infrastructure connected disparate data sources, allowing us to build and launch products, and make changes to our system, in real time, without the need to replace clunky and expensive legacy cores. At MBI, we are committed to making your financial institutions data work for you. Our experience stems from creating banking architecture from the ground up, guided by a customer-centric, first-principles approach. Youll benefit from years of experiments and innovation. Together, we can shape the future of banking.
