Key Capabilities of FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0

1. Smarter and Compliant Customer Acquisition

The Customer Acquisition System (CAS) in FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 has been significantly enhanced to simplify onboarding and improve transparency.

2. Intelligent and Transparent Loan Management System

The Loan Management System (LMS) in FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 delivers enhancements that elevate transparency, accuracy, and flexibility in loan servicing. Our latest release introduces enhanced late payment interest calculation and reporting, ensuring seamless compliance with RBI guidelines. By clearly distinguishing overdue EMI interest from penalties, financial institutions can improve transparency, helping customers better understand their repayment obligations, minimize disputes by fostering trust through a well-defined breakdown of charges, and enhance financial reporting with accurate classification for improved regulatory compliance and decision-making. This enhancement empowers financial institutions to strengthen customer relationships, ensure compliance, and drive operational efficiency.

A significant enhancement in FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 is the introduction of the Presentation of Other Charges feature, which allows financial institutions to provide customers with a comprehensive view of their total outstanding dues. Along with overdue EMI and upcoming instalment details, financial institutions can now include additional charges such as penalties, fees, and late payment interest directly within the repayment schedule. This ensures a transparent and consolidated view of all outstanding amounts, helping customers better plan their repayments while ensuring financial institutions can communicate dues more effectively.
 

Another notable addition is the introduction of future-dated disbursals, which aligns interest calculation and repayment schedules with the actual disbursement date. This eliminates unfair interest charges and ensures compliance with loan agreements. The LMS also includes the Token Money Moratorium feature, designed to reduce the financial burden on education loan borrowers during the moratorium period. By allowing borrowers to make nominal fixed payments, this feature fosters financial discipline while enhancing loan affordability.

To further improve interest calculations, FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 introduces the Cheque Handover feature, which ensures that interest is only charged from either the cheque handover date or the cheque realization date, rather than the disbursal date. This enhancement prevents unjust interest accrual during the period between cheque issuance and realization, ensuring that customers are charged fairly. By introducing this feature, financial institutions can enhance customer trust, reduce disputes, and align their loan servicing processes with real-world financial transactions.

To address regulatory requirements, FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 includes automation for the Depositor Education and Awareness Fund (DEAF) process. Financial institutions can now automatically identify and transfer dormant accounts to DEAF, ensuring compliance and transparency. This enhancement reduces the risk of penalties and enhances the institution’s regulatory reputation. Additionally, the LMS now enables financial institutions to edit the first EMI date dynamically, providing greater flexibility and accuracy in loan servicing.

Other critical updates in the LMS module include the ability to allocate payments to co-applicants, present comprehensive overdue charges, and manage settlement processes more effectively. The introduction of interest capitalization during moratoriums adds further flexibility to loan management, allowing financial institutions to tailor repayment schedules to meet customer needs.
 

3. Faster Recoveries with Collections

A key breakthrough in FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 is the enhanced Collections module, designed to redefine recovery processes with advanced automation and intelligence. These powerful new features boost operational efficiency, accelerate debt recovery, and enhance compliance, enabling financial institutions to minimize delinquencies and maximize profitability with greater precision and control.

The Telecaller module is another area of focus, with the introduction of bulk downloads for customer data. Telecallers now have instant access to transactional data for all accounts in a single operation, streamlining customer follow-ups. This feature improves productivity by enabling telecallers to focus on high-impact cases, thereby enhancing recovery outcomes. Additionally, the platform now supports co-allocation of cases to relationship managers (RMs). By assigning cases based on predefined criteria, financial institutions can leverage the existing relationships and insights of RMs to achieve faster resolutions and improve customer engagement. This approach fosters a more efficient collections process and builds customer trust.

To further enhance recovery operations, FinnOne Neo® GA 8.0 introduces the Multiple Bidding Round Process at Auction Proceedings (Repo). This feature enables financial institutions to conduct multiple rounds of bidding during auction proceedings, ensuring that repossessed assets are sold at the best possible value. Each bidding round is tracked and documented, providing complete transparency and competitive evaluation of bids. By automating and optimizing the auction process, financial institutions can maximize asset recovery rates, improve operational efficiency, and enhance financial recoveries.

Another key addition is the PTP (Promise-to-Pay) Capturing at the Customer Level. Traditionally, financial institutions have faced challenges in tracking repayment commitments across multiple accounts under a single customer. The latest enhancement allows institutions to capture PTP at the customer level, consolidating commitments across all associated accounts. This reduces repetitive actions, saves time, and provides a holistic view of customer payment promises, leading to more effective follow-ups and improved recovery outcomes.

FinnOne Neo® Collections GA 8.0 also introduces a robust Form Generation feature with Multilevel Approval Capability, streamlining and automating the document generation process. This enhancement ensures that generated forms undergo a structured approval workflow, enabling financial institutions to validate and authorize documents across multiple approval levels before finalization. Additionally, the system maintains a detailed audit trail, ensuring full transparency and compliance with regulatory requirements. By reducing manual intervention and enhancing approval workflows, this feature improves operational efficiency and mitigates risks associated with document handling.

Another critical enhancement in the Collections module is the ability to configure limits for different modes of communication. By controlling the volume of customer notifications through channels such as SMS, email, or letters, financial institutions can prevent communication fatigue and ensure effective customer engagement. This feature aligns with regulatory requirements while promoting a smoother customer experience The Collections module introduces an enhanced repossession workflow specifically designed for the Vietnamese market, ensuring alignment with local regulatory requirements and addressing region-specific business needs. This workflow automates repossession activities, reduces turnaround times, and enhances compliance, enabling financial institutions to recover non-performing assets more effectively.
