TipRanks Wins First Place in Global Fintech Contest

TipRanks is proud to announce it has won first place in the Vector Global Objetivo Fintech Award contest, which named TipRanks “the most innovative technology and financial company in the world in 2023.”

The win attests to TipRanks’ excellence in processing terabytes of financial data and transforming them into very simple tools for analyzing stocks and ETFs.  The contest’s organizers cited TipRanks’ proficiency at making investment data transparent and helping investors make better financial decisions based on reliable data. TipRanks’ expertise at monitoring and measuring the performance of more than 96,000 financial experts helped it clinch the first place position.

Vector’s Global Fintech contest attracted Fintech companies from across the world, with contestants from 32 countries on four continents angling for first place. TipRanks beat out worthy competitors from Asia, America, Europe and Africa. Among the judges were experts from the venture capital sector, supported by institutions such as Google Cloud.

Vector Casa de Bolsa, the main sponsor of the contest, is a full-service broker dealer and wealth manager with specialized products and services designed for individual investors, companies, institutional funds, government and foreign investors. Finnovista, the largest FinTech and Insurtech collaboration platform in Latin America, co-sponsored the contest.

Edgardo Cantú, Executive President of Vector Empresas and General Director of Vector Casa de Bolsa, commented, “As Vector and Vector Global, the only global Mexican financial company with a presence in ten countries, we are delighted with the opportunities that our Objetivo Fintech Award contest has given us. Thanks to the contest, we can create an alliance with Tipranks, and offer differential added value to our clients. This is evidence that Objetivo Fintech is not only allowing us to learn first-hand about the major global trends in real-life financial technology applications, but also is generating visibility for our brand on four continents.”

Cantú continued, “In addition to this alliance opportunity, the celebration of the award ceremony in the Vector metaverse shows our firm commitment not only to talent without borders, but also to the latest technological trends. We are already adopting those trends at Vector and Vector Global, as demonstrated by our emcee, SofIA, who is the first virtual assistant in the financial sector of LATAM, entirely created with Generative Artificial Intelligence. Our sincere congratulations to TIPRANKS for having been chosen as the best Fintech of 2023!”

Mónica Martínez Montes, Director of Innovation at Vector Casa de Bolsa, highlighted that, “The fact that so many FinTechs, investors, large technology companies, embassies and associations have chosen to join our ecosystem, is a testament to how Vector’s collaboration and interaction with innovators is already a reality, the fruits of which are already making a difference, both for all participants, and for our clients.”

Uri Gruenbaum, CEO and co-founder of TipRanks, said, “TipRanks is proud to be recognized as the top Fintech company by the Vector Global Objetivo Fintech Award. This underscores our mission to be at the cutting edge of financial technology innovation to help the everyday investor. We will continue to bring TipRanks’ customers the best and latest technology, as we level the playing field for everyone.”

Metaverse-Based Contest

Interestingly, the award ceremony for this second round of the annual contest was held in the Metaverse. The virtual world of the Vector Metaverse featured avatars who represented the judges and contestants. Uniquely, the emcee was virtual as well: SofIA, the first Virtual Assistant in Latin America’s financial system.

SofIA was created with Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT and developed by Vector Casa de Bolsa. As emcee, SofIA wowed the audience, introducing the managers of Vector Casa de Bolsa and VectorGlobal, the manager of Finnovista, and the international panel of judges. SofIA also had the privilege of announcing TipRanks as the winning Fintech company!

TipRanks continues to level the playing field for the everyday investor with its top-level datasets and investment research information. This award will only bolster TipRanks’ efforts to help all investors make smarter, data-driven investment decisions.
