WEX Launches FI and Aggregator Dedicated Business Segment
Read MoreHide Full Article
WEX Inc. (WEX - Free Report) yesterday announced the launch of a business segment dedicated entirely to financial institutions (FIs) and aggregators. It is part of the company’s Corporate Payments division.
Greg Sassone, the vice president of Corporate Payments, will lead this Segment. Sassone has been with WEX since 2015 prior to which he managed senior positions in Mastercard (MA - Free Report) and Citigroup’s (C - Free Report) Citibank. The move follows an internal restructuring of the division.
Devoted to (FIs) and FI Solutions Providers
The new segment will have exclusive focus on FIs and FI solutions providers. It will focus on helping FI partners expand payments offerings such as options in payment delivery methods and card networks, for their commercial clients. This should increase the number of transactions that WEX processes globally on behalf of FIs.
Notably, the Noventis acquisition completed recently, strengthened WEX’s position as a corporate payments supplier and provided more channels to FIs and billing aggregators. This acquisition was a driver of 21% year-over-year growth of the company’s Travel and Corporate Solutions' revenues of $91.4 million in the second quarter of 2019.
Long-term expected earnings (three to five years) growth rate for Huron is 13.5%.
Biggest Tech Breakthrough in a Generation
Be among the early investors in the new type of device that experts say could impact society as much as the discovery of electricity. Current technology will soon be outdated and replaced by these new devices. In the process, it’s expected to create 22 million jobs and generate $12.3 trillion in activity.
A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 7 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
