Banking CIO Outlook recognizes Micah Group as a Top Lending Management Provider
Micah Group was named as a top 10 service provider in lending technology for Banking CIO Outlook’s 2021 list.
What makes leaders successful is that they look at every problem as an opportunity in disguise. The story of Justin Bjerkaas follows a similar trail. In his years as a business banker, Bjerkaas did not just see firsthand the inefficiencies that hampered the lending experience but also lived them day in and day out for almost a decade. He witnessed the many complexities encumbering banks and lending institutions, from process inefficiencies to prohibitive vendors and faster competitors.
Bjerkaas’s frustrations drove him to establish Micah Group to help banks and lending institutions leverage technology to their advantage and accelerate their “time to decision” while improving the customer experience. Micah is a financial technology company providing lending and credit solutions to banks and financing companies. The company gets into the customers’ shoes to empathize with issues they face and arms them with future-ready technology.
"I explored ways to improve the lending experience and connected with talented technologists from MIT, Harvard, and George Washington University to bring my idea to the market. Backed by an incredible team, I developed Micah™, an intelligent cloud-based lending platform that compresses the time from application to funding," says Justin Bjerkaas, Founder and CEO of Micah Group.
With Bjerkaas at the helm, the Micah team brings a wealth of expertise in both technology and banking, without being deficient in one or the other, to help customers navigate their digital transformation endeavors and become digital natives.
