TIFIN, a fintech platform using artificial intelligence (AI) and investment-driven personalization to shape the future of investor experiences, announced its initial launch into international markets through the acquisition on SharingAlpha, a community of over 15,000 professional fund investors and analysts located throughout the world, but with a high concentration in the UK and Western Europe.
Following the acquisition, SharingAlpha will be fully integrated into TIFIN’s Magnifi platform. The integration will offer both retail and professional investors from all over the globe unique digital tools to enhance their personal investment experience leveraging the AI-powered investment intelligence on Magnifi’s existing platform now augmented with SharingAlpha’s proprietary community intelligence insights.
SharingAlpha offers professionals the opportunity to build their own personal track record in terms of both their fund selection and asset allocation capabilities. Investors can gain the community’s intelligence on funds’ chances of generating alpha in the future from the collective knowledge gathered on the platform from members of the SharingAlpha community. Co-founded six years ago by two Israeli brothers, Oren and Yuval Kaplan, has become the world’s largest community of professional fund buyers.
Oren Kaplan will also join Magnifi as a partner and work closely with TIFIN’s recently announced Head of International Jason O’Shaughnessy on the integration of the platforms.
«Being able to now offer Magnifi’s investment intelligence and capabilities to non-US investors is definitely an important step in our evolution.» said Dr. Vinay Nair, Founder, and CEO of TIFIN. «We are also excited about adding the unique community features developed by SharingAlpha which will enhance our offering to professional investors internationally».
