which delivers scalable, machine-created content. Its powerful

analysis report provides powerful insights, analysis and scoring
regarding a company’s dividend quality, yield, coverage,
flexibility, payment history, peer comparisons and
sustainability. Report readership continued to increase
during the quarter as users rapidly embrace the use of AI in
fundamental financial analysis.
AnalytixInsight believes that its ability to
create scalable financial content on companies worldwide is being
recognized with increasing importance as global industry leaders
embrace analytics within the financial industry. The London Stock
Exchange has agreed to buy Refinitiv in a US$27 billion transaction
to create a global financial markets infrastructure provider with
leading data and analytics to Refinitiv’s 40,000 institutions in

selection based on Efficient Frontier computations. The Company is
engaged in discussions with professional portfolio managers
relating the use of CapitalCube’s robo-analysis and AI to be

Workforce Optimization
AnalytixInsight’s Workforce Optimization
division joined the IFS Partner Network in 2018 and is advancing
its sales initiatives in the Field Service Management (FSM)
industry. IFS is a world leader in developing workforce
optimization enterprise software for global customers who manage
service-focused operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted
many North American businesses and is disrupting the traditional
operations of service-based organizations. They are now seeking
innovative solutions for field dispatch, job tracking, and workflow
efficiency. Data analytics plays an important role in this shift,
which is more easily enabled now that most service technicians use
digital-based solutions.
The Company is working collaboratively with IFS
to design and build machine learning and deep learning solutions
that are designed to improve Workforce Optimization and Scheduling
in the FSM industry. The initial design of these solutions is
targeted to meet the needs of customers in the Energy and Utilities
industry verticals using cybernetic methods of human-machine
intelligent interaction. Machine learning algorithms based on
cybernetics will facilitate insightful learnings from the data
currently generated by the FSM industry.
The Company’s Workforce Optimization division is
a highly skilled systems integration team experienced in
integration of IFS and Salesforce field management solutions. The
Company is applying an increased focus on this initiative with new
solutions and strategies that are emerging as a result of
COVID-19.
MarketWall
MarketWall is a 49%-owned FinTech online digital
solutions provider to major financial services firms in Europe. It
draws an audience of over 2.5 million monthly users through its
multi-device platform and social media presence. As a Samsung
Electronics partner, MarketWall’s financial app is preloaded on
certain Samsung devices in Europe.
During the quarter, MarketWall advanced
development of InvestoPro, its European online
brokerage initiative. Options & derivatives trading has been
added to the product suite, in addition to stock trading. The
editorial team is now producing “Trading Ideas” content which is
designed to educate investors by offering weekly stock market
summaries, worldwide financial market outlooks, educational content
for stocks, bonds, currencies, new emerging industry trend
analysis, and more. Several new features have also been added such
as Virtual Trading, Price Alerts, Company Profiles, and Academy –
an education center that offers webinars and on-demand courses
designed to deepen investors knowledge of financial markets.
Following regulatory approvals InvestoPro will launch in Italy and
then expand to other European countries, using Intesa Sanpaolo as
its execution broker. InvestoPro will offer discounted stock
trading commissions and other services designed to give individual
investors greater control over their investments and trading.
MarketWall has already developed “Investo” which
is the stock trading component of the Intesa Sanpaolo App, ranked
top 4th App in Europe by Forrester Digital Wave. The number of
Intesa Sanpaolo banking app users has increased by approximately 1
million over the past year to 6.2 million.
MarketWall
Lite has been launched as a Progressive Web App
(PWA). PWAs function like web browsers with the convenience of an
app-like format that can be downloaded to the home screen of any
device (desktop, mobile, tablet) for quick access. PWAs require
less memory space and data usage compared to native apps while
offering quicker load times and the ability to use certain features
when offline.
Following the completion of MarketWall’s online
brokerage initiative InvestoPro, MarketWall expects to initiate a
valuation process to determine its appropriate valuation within a
peer-based context of online brokerage firms with partnerships with
world-leading banks. Completion of this process will allow
AnalytixInsight to move forward with a spinout to unlock the value
of its MarketWall holdings in an IPO or other such strategies.
MarketWall has also developed GlobalMarket, a
trading & research platform offering analyst research and stock
trading in one common enterprise digital platform. It is marketed
and sold by a leading investment research provider and has already
been installed by a leading bank in Western Europe for their
approximately 4,000 professional users.
Intesa Sanpaolo owns 33% of MarketWall and is
one of the top banking groups in Europe with approximately 11.8
million customers and approximately 3,700 branches throughout
Italy. It has emerged as Italy's first digital bank and is
investing 2.8 billion euros in a strategic plan to increase the
bank’s digitized business to 70%, with mobile being at the heart of
the digital ecosystem. S&P Global ranks Intesa Sanpaolo as the
27th largest bank in the world by total assets.
