VP Bank BVI Adopts Appway and FINFOX White-Label Fintech Tools
VP Bank's British Virgin Islands (BVI) branch adopted white-label technology solutions from Swiss fintech providers to modernize its banking operations during 2018. The bank implemented Appway's platform for digital client onboarding, streamlining the account opening and compliance process. Additionally, VP Bank deployed FINFOX's investment advisory tool to enhance its wealth management services.
Both solutions were white-labeled, allowing VP Bank to present them under its own brand while benefiting from specialized fintech capabilities. This approach aligned with the broader 2018 trend of banks licensing fintech products rather than building bespoke systems, with 46% of banks expressing interest in purchasing white-labeled fintech products for rebranding. The partnership allowed VP Bank to deliver modern digital experiences to clients in the BVI market while maintaining regulatory compliance.
