With the rollout of Onboard+, EquiLend has entered into a new partnership with digital onboarding and due diligence platform valid8Me.
The platform Onboard+, which is powered by valid8Me, introduces an end-to-end fund and counterparty onboarding solution to the securities finance market.
It aims to address challenges around the onboarding of beneficial owners in securities lending programmes.

Kevin McNulty, head of RegTech Solutions at EquiLend, says: “Developed in collaboration with our clients, EquiLend Onboard+ fuses valid8Me’s innovation in KYC with EquiLend’s expertise in the securities finance market to unlock huge volumes of untapped liquidity.”
Patrick Horgan, CEO of valid8Me, adds: “We are excited to partner with EquiLend, a market leader in securities finance, and together solve a significant industry challenge with the introduction of the Onboard+ platform, which will unlock long-term value for our end clients.”
