AnalytixInsight’s FinTech affiliate, MarketWall, has developed InvestoPro as a European online broker allowing users to trade stocks, options, and derivatives. In March 2021, InvestoPro received regulatory approval by CONSOB (Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa), the Italian financial markets regulator. InvestoPro has been enabled as an AI-assisted trading platform incorporating artificial intelligence and machine-created content to assist investors in making investment decisions through its interconnection with CapitalCube. MarketWall has also initiated the regulatory process steps to add payment processing capabilities to InvestoPro to enable users to make payments and transfer funds between accounts.
InvestoPro has been jointly introduced by AnalytixInsight and Intesa Sanpaolo as Intesa Sanpaolo’s online digital trading platform, whose customers will be able to activate online trading using their Intesa Sanpaolo Mobile App login credentials.
