In October we attended the 37th BACEE Regional Banking Conference in Budapest with around 150 participating guests. During the two-day event several representatives of the banking and fintech sector visited the event and among many other speakers listened to the talk of Loxon’s Chairman Tamás Erni.
His presentation covered the newest trends in collateralised lending, especially mortgage lending, the challenges of digitalising collateralised lending processes and the use of artificial intelligence in digitalisation. It touched all elements of a fully digital mortgage lending process and its advantages for the customers of the banks. The role of national central databases was elaborated too; in particular the boosting effect of central collateral databases on collateralised lending activities.
Closure of the first Experimental Lab phase
Oct 18, 2018
The first phase of our our supported self-development project, Experimental Lab has come its end. During this period we have created exciting things and we got to know many new technologies in teams. To familiarize ourself with these achievements, each team introduced the outlines of their project and its outcomes and lessons learnt in a five-minute presentation. There were teams who learnt more about machine learning or graphe databases and their possible uses. Others created XMPP chat servers or made a traffic simulation. The award for the greatest contribution eventually went to the team who worked on the renewal of our mentoring programme - congratulations to them: Botond Pesti, Gábor Beckl, Tibor Németh! :)Â
We are very proud of all the efforts and determination that we have seen you investing in the first three months of Experimental Lab and we are excited about the next round.
Annual team building
Oct 9, 2018
Even the colder winter days could not stop us from organizing our annual team building, which has become a tradition by now, this time in Siófok by the lake Balaton.
Our colleagues had to face numerous challenges before they could enjoy the rewards of the hotel spa. First they had to shine their intelligence in a quiz then it was time for testing their creativity. After the lunch in groups they had to build little ships of cardboard that would withstand the hostile weather conditions and bare the weight of the most courageous member of the group.
All this excitement and fun climaxed at the inevitable party in the evening.Â
Relive these brilliant moments with us by looking at the photos taken :)Â
