The acquisition of riskine marks another milestone for the software specialist BSI in its mission to continuously develop the digital customer relationship. The integration of riskine's API-based consulting products will further strengthen BSI's expertise. riskine is now represented in 12 markets and actively supports the internationalisation of BSI. With the new location in Vienna, BSI also wants to expand its market presence in Austria and CEE and be close to its customers. Just recently, the traditional insurance company Merkur from Graz opted for the AI-supported BSI Customer Suite with generative 360° customer view and BSI Companion. "The acquisition of riskine underlines our commitment to the European markets and our strategic focus on offering a strong industry solution for our industries," explains Markus Brunold, CEO of BSI. "riskine's expertise complements our own strengths and offers real added value for our customers." The transaction is still subject to the necessary regulatory approvals.
Customer centricity is a common strategic goal
The fintech’s advisory suite will significantly deepen the industry logic of the AI-supported BSI Customer Suite. The modular portfolio of riskine will be provided to BSI customers fully integrated into the BSI solution in future. Their end customers will benefit from the solutions through optimised transparency generated in real time with regard to offers and their personal situation. riskine solutions can continue to be used independently, which will not result in any changes for existing customers. "We are delighted to continue to grow together with BSI in Europe and to work on offering our customers first-class, holistic software solutions. We have many overlaps in terms of content and strategy and want to be able to cover customer requirements even more broadly and holistically in the future," emphasises Ralf Widtmann, founder and CEO of riskine. "Our daily business will remain unchanged, as will the entire team, the riskine brand and the product portfolio."
