About Us
Company Overview
We founded Finys in 2001, using our knowledge of insurance and technology to build a processing suite — on a scalable, flexible architecture — that would meet the needs of the insurance industry into the future. All these years later, we’re still here, we’re still growing, we’re still striving to improve, and the Suite is still evolving.
We’ll never say we got it right. Judging from the satisfaction of the insurers who use our Suite, we think we’re getting it right. But we’ll never stop working at it.
