UnionBank Onboarded 50,000 Customers a Month at Peak with 5-Minute Approvals Using FICO Platform
MANILA, Philippines--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- FICO (NYSE: FICO): UnionBank deployed FICO® Platform in just nine months, enabling 80% straight-through processing and onboarding 50,000 credit card and loan accounts per month at peak — all in just 5–15 minutes. Highlights: UnionBank implemented FICO® Platform in just nine months, enabling seamless integration with Citibank's systems Over 1 million customers transferred as part of UnionBank's $700 million acquisition of Citibank's consumer banking business in the Philippines More than 80% of credit card and personal loan applications are now processed straight-through, reducing onboarding time to 5–15 minutes Record-breaking account bookings of 50,000 new credit card and loan accounts per month at peak UnionBank won a 2025 FICO® Decision Award for Customer Onboarding and Management Union Bank of the Philippines (UnionBank), one of the country's most innovative banks, has transformed its customer onboarding and credit decisioning process using FICO® Platform. Following its US$700 million acquisition of Citibank's local consumer banking business in 2022, which transferred approximately 1 million customers, UnionBank deployed FICO Platform to seamlessly integrate Citibank's IT systems and launch its Credit Decision Engine (CDE). This transformation has enabled the bank to process more than 80% of applications straight-through, reducing onboarding times to just 5–15 minutes and expanding credit access to underserved populations. This achievement underscores UnionBank's commitment to advancing financial inclusion in the Philippines, where high digital penetration provides a unique opportunity to address the needs of the underbanked. The rapid deployment of FICO Platform in just nine months highlights UnionBank's agility and ability to balance customer experience with operational efficiency. 'FICO Platform has been instrumental in helping us integrate Citibank's systems while improving operational efficiency and customer experience,' said Manoj Varma, consumer banking head at UnionBank. 'As a result, we have achieved record-breaking growth while expanding financial inclusion across the Philippines.' Watch UnionBank tell their story on video: Expanding Financial Inclusion In the Philippines, financial institutions face significant challenges in serving the underbanked population, which includes many gig workers and consumers with thin or no credit histories. Limited availability of credit information has traditionally slowed onboarding processes and excluded large segments of the population from accessing credit. However, the country's high digital adoption and geographic spread make it an ideal environment for innovative, branchless banking solutions. UnionBank's Credit Decision Engine, powered by FICO Platform, was designed to address these challenges. By leveraging advanced analytics and alternative data, the Credit Decision Engine has enabled UnionBank to score and assess customers who were previously underserved. This includes integrating bureau data and new methods for evaluating creditworthiness, allowing UnionBank to create comprehensive customer profiles and expand credit opportunities, while effectively managing risk. The Credit Decision Engine also incorporates risk-based verification strategies to accelerate approvals for low-risk applicants, while maintaining rigorous checks for higher-risk segments. This tailored approach ensures that credit is granted responsibly, while reducing manual interventions, speeding up the process, and enhancing customer satisfaction. These innovations align with UnionBank's mission to make financial services more accessible across the Philippines' archipelago. Key achievements of UnionBank's transformation include: Record-breaking growth: Reached peak volumes of 50,000 new credit card and personal loan accounts per month Enhanced efficiency: Straight-through processing for more than 80% of applications, reducing onboarding time to 5–15 minutes Automation at scale: Automated 30–40% of credit decisioning processes, minimizing manual interventions and errors Financial inclusion: Leveraged alternative data to expand credit access for underbanked populations Seamless integration: Successfully integrated UnionBank and Citibank systems within nine months UnionBank is further leveraging FICO Platform to strengthen customer management, with 2024 marking the addition of advanced decisioning for credit card limits and real-time authorizations. This reflects the bank's ongoing effort to simplify and improve the customer experience with a fully integrated decisioning system. 'UnionBank has shown how technology isn't just about algorithms and efficiency — it's about empowering people,' said Nikhil Behl, head of software at FICO. 'Through FICO Platform, they've built a scalable and inclusive onboarding process that is both efficient and customer-focused.' For its achievements, UnionBank won a 2025 FICO® Decision Award for Customer Onboarding and Management. 'UnionBank took on the daunting task of adopting and enhancing Citibank's systems while integrating their own policies and processes,' said Regan Goble, risk analytics senior manager at Westpac NZ and one of the FICO Decision Awards judges. 'Integrating two distinct systems is no small feat. The judges were impressed with the precision and expertise required.'

'Blossoming Hearts • Intoxicated Ink' - Tam Sing Chuk and Chak Meihing Art Exhibition Grandly Opens in Shenzhen
SHENZHEN, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On July 17, the 'Blossoming Hearts • Intoxicated Ink' Tam Sing Chuk and Chak Meihing Art Exhibition opened at Heungkong Art Museum in Qianhai, Shenzhen. This exhibition marks a milestone as it is the inaugural event showcasing Heungkong Art Museum's emergence as a cultural landmark and a cross-disciplinary cultural space in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) and even across the nation. The core significance of this art exhibition lies in its vivid interpretation of the three fundamental pillars that establish Heungkong Art Museum as a sustainable cultural landmark, as well as its pioneering role in shaping a new cultural ecosystem: a platform for disseminating the social value of professional artists, a cultural salon for entrepreneurs, and a closed loop for art philanthropy and cultural and creative values. Mladen Ivanić, former President of Bosnia and Herzegovina, believes that this joint art exhibition represents not only a new beginning in intercultural dialogue but also an innovative practice of cross-disciplinary integration. As the curator of Heungkong Art Museum, Chak Meihing is the core driving force behind this cultural innovation, leveraging her entrepreneurial foresight, artistic sensibility, and philanthropic commitment. The three-pronged model she pioneered—combining a platform for professional artists, a cultural salon for the business community, and a closed loop for philanthropic, cultural and creative values. This exhibition meticulously showcases 70 authentic works by Tam Sing Chuk, along with nearly 50 representative paintings by Chak Meihing herself. The exhibition is not merely a joint display by two artists but also a groundbreaking endeavor by Heungkong Art Museum to forge a new cultural ecosystem. As an artist, Chak Meihing's artistic accomplishments have garnered widespread acclaim within the art circle. Lu Yushun, former President of China National Academy of Painting, commented that her artistic endeavors serve as a vivid testament to the inheritance and innovation of traditional Chinese culture. Xu Qinsong, a consultant to China Artists Association, noted that Chak's works boldly break free from traditional constraints in composition, while her use of color combines vibrancy with depth. Concurrently with the art exhibition, the "Goodness and Beauty Collection" online charity store launched, selling Chak Meihing's painting-derived cultural products with all proceeds supporting rural children projects.

CenterPoint Energy, Inc. Announces Pricing of Offering of $900 Million of 3.00% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2028
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CNP) or 'CenterPoint' today announced the pricing of its offering of $900 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the 'convertible notes') in a private placement to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Securities Act'). CenterPoint also granted the initial purchasers of the convertible notes the option to purchase up to an additional $100 million aggregate principal amount of convertible notes for settlement within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the convertible notes are first issued. The sale of the convertible notes is expected to close on July 31, 2025. The convertible notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of CenterPoint. The convertible notes will mature on August 1, 2028, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The convertible notes will bear interest at a rate of 3.00% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2026. Prior to May 1, 2028, the convertible notes will be convertible only upon the occurrence of certain events and during certain periods. Thereafter, the convertible notes will be convertible by holders at any time in whole or in part until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, CenterPoint will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of CenterPoint's common stock, par value $0.01 ('common stock'), or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at CenterPoint's election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of its conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes being converted. CenterPoint may not redeem the convertible notes prior to the maturity date. The initial conversion rate for the convertible notes will be 21.4477 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $46.63 per share of the common stock). The conversion rate and the corresponding conversion price will be subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. CenterPoint expects that the net proceeds from the offering of the convertible notes will be approximately $888.1 million (or approximately $986.8 million if the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional convertible notes in full), after deducting the initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by CenterPoint. CenterPoint intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of its outstanding commercial paper and other debt. The convertible notes and any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes have been offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The offer and sale of the convertible notes and any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.
