We are thrilled to announce that Arkle Finance, one of the UK’s leading asset finance providers, has renewed its partnership with verifi to continue to use our virtual asset inspection platform. This partnership reinforces Arkle Finance's commitment to delivering a seamless, efficient and highly-personalised experience for its brokers and clients.

Arkle Finance has renewed its commitment to using verifi as its provider of virtual asset inspections, leveraging our revolutionary self-certifi platform. This game-changing technology gives lenders the confidence to allow finance customers, brokers and supplying dealers to conduct their own asset inspections to support new lending and in-life portfolio management.

Our platform is designed to help lenders like Arkle Finance save time and money by making ‘legacy’ physical inspections a thing of the past. The quality and validity of the information obtained from our inspections are reliable – eliminating the time and cost of a physical inspection. With verifi, inspections can be completed in minutes, rather than days.

This partnership provides significant benefits for Arkle Finance, including:

  • Automated manual processes: Our platform reduces the time and effort required to review and book inspections, thereby freeing up “people time” for Arkle to nurture its already strong relationships with brokers.
  • Enhanced risk management: Arkle Finance can now make faster lending decisions and payouts by utilising the platform’s agentic AI and multimodal reasoning to perform real-time checks on inspection data - offering a robust and proactive approach to preventing fraud.
  • Improved customer experience: We provide a rapid, seamless experience for Arkle Finance's clients and brokers to provide supporting asset information while maintaining the highest levels of security and compliance.


Jonathan Garnett, verifi co-founder, commented: "The UK asset finance market is undergoing a significant digital shift, with lenders increasingly focused on enhancing operational efficiency, improving customer experience and bolstering fraud prevention. verifi's virtual inspection technology directly addresses these core priorities. By digitising a historically manual process, our platform empowers Arkle Finance to not only make faster, data-driven decisions but also to deliver a more seamless and modern service to brokers and clients. Our ability to provide reliable, real-time data on asset existence and condition gives Arkle Finance a powerful tool for managing risk and staying ahead in a competitive landscape. We are delighted to partner with a forward-thinking firm like Arkle Finance that is committed to leading the industry's digital evolution."

Carla Lourenco, Head of Credit at Arkle Finance, adds: Every deal we underwrite at Arkle is reviewed by an experienced member of our team, ensuring a personal, relationship-led approach and consistent decision making. At the same time, innovative tools such as verifi’s asset inspection platform help streamline the process for us and our brokers, making it easier to gather the information we need quickly, securely and efficiently.

 

The platform not only enhances the customer and broker experience but also strengthens our risk management framework by improving asset verification, reducing the risk of fraud and providing greater confidence in the information used to support lending decisions. This enables us to combine technology-driven efficiency with the personal service that remains at the heart of our business.”
