Our take
MeridianLink provides modern software platforms for financial institutions and consumer reporting agencies. Specifically, it powers digital lending and account opening for the former and data verifications for the latter.
The company has been trusted for over 20 years and has remained adaptable and open to change with the industry, such as its recent addition of engagement features that offer new ways to help financial services drive growth, reach target audiences and adjust campaigns to meet business and customer needs. It has therefore maintained a number of impressive customers, from BankPlus and American United to FirstBank and TwinStar.
MeridianLink has proven hungry in recent years for acquisitions, having acquired StreetShares, TazWorks and Saylent within one year, and off the back of its 2021 IPO. Its efforts to expand its product offerings and customer base are a testament to its adaptable nature that has engendered a long-standing strong market position.
