It is imperative for the financial services industry not only to take the aid of technology but also to stay in a continuous process of advancement. Even though the industry is in a very promising stage, it faces challenges pertaining to growth, standardization, lack of skilled resources, downsizing and lack of structured framework. Acknowledging the need for advanced software and overcoming the hurdles of the Islamic financial sector, Path Solutions provides the appropriate and robust technological solutions the industry needs for its continued growth. Briefing about the functioning of the industry, Mohammed Kateeb, Group Chairman & CEO, Path Solutions says, “We believe that for the industry to reach its full potential, it must first ensure substantial investments in industry-specific technologies in order to keep pace with an increasingly complex marketplace.” Providing advanced services to its clients in project management, risk management, consulting and outsourcing services, Path Solutions has made a strong market presence since its very inception.
Initiated in 1992 solely as a software solutions provider in various parts of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, Path Solutions entered the financial technology industry at a global scale few years later. Having performed an in-depth market analysis, the company figured out the gap in the sector and endeavored to fill it by providing cutting-edge Sharia-compliant software solutions with major focus on the needs of the Islamic finance sector.
The features of Path Solutions’ wide range of services are unique to the company which acts in accordance with the Sharia law.
