MONTRÉAL, 21 May 2025 – Valital is proud to announce its inclusion in Fintech Global’s prestigious DataTech50 list for the second consecutive year. This recognition reaffirms Valital’s position as a leader in AI-powered risk intelligence and adverse media screening.
Selected by a panel of renowned analysts and industry experts from a competitive shortlist of more than 400 global companies, Valital continues to push boundaries in financial services by revolutionizing how organizations manage risk with real-time, explainable AI.
FinTech Global director Richard Sachar said, “The DataTech50 list is not just about helping financial services find the shiniest tools in the industry, it is designed to help identify the perfect partners who can prepare them for 2025 and beyond.”
