Koçfinans was established in 1995 to provide consumers with direct financing; it is Turkey’s first and leading financing company, and it offers loan services across many sectors (https://www.kocfinans.com.tr/en/). Its R&D Department has been conducting innovative software projects in the field of optimization, data mining, machine learning, information technology and systems management since 2017.
With the open banking developments in the banking and finance sector the introduction of financial services through APIs has become widespread. Koçfinans is the first financing company that uses innovative, scalable and high-performance microservice architecture in loan application, evaluation and opening processes. In preparation for this process, Koçfinans has developed Devops infrastructure by combining open source tools, using test-oriented development (TDD) techniques, running static code analysis on developed codes, and performing a large percentage of its tests with automations.
In the process of digitalization, Koçfinans searches solutions that increase efficiency and automation in nearly all of its processes. The activities carried out by the legal department which is done manually, the majority of which can not be fully formulated and involves variable decision-making has been modeled and developed by optimization, text mining and machine learning techniques. Koçfinans focus on the AI solutions primarily for customers and internal stakeholders and continues to carry out advanced data analytics projects.
With the grant support we have given at İTÜ Cekirdek Big Bang Entrepreneurship Competition we believe in the importance of technology initiatives and the creation of an ecosystem around these initiatives. We are cooperating with academic institutions and start-ups for the projects developed and looking for new partnerships with national and international academic institutions and R&D centers.
