Basikon partners with AMFE to drive financial digitalisation in Mexico

Basikon, a next-generation SaaS core lending engine, has announced a strategic partnership with the Asociación Mexicana de Entidades Financieras Especializadas (AMFE), reinforcing its commitment to digital transformation across Latin America and cementing its presence in Mexico’s rapidly evolving financial services sector.

The partnership, formally introduced today during an exclusive AMFE breakfast session in Mexico City, marks Basikon’s official membership in the association, which represents over 35 specialised financial entities operating in key sectors including automotive, agribusiness, real estate, SMEs, and digital lending.

“Digitalisation is no longer a choice – it’s a necessity. But achieving this transformation requires the right tools and the right partners,” said Ignacio Olivera, Country Manager Iberia & LATAM at Basikon.

AMFE, with more than three decades of experience, plays a central role in advancing financial innovation in Mexico. The organisation’s emphasis on operational efficiency, modernisation, and expanding financial access aligns closely with Basikon’s mission to empower lenders through API-first, low-code, cloud-native technology.

“Our entry into AMFE goes far beyond membership — it’s a strategic partnership to work alongside Mexican financial institutions in their digital evolution,” said Thomas Nokin, Founder & CEO of Basikon.

“We share AMFE’s belief that innovation and operational efficiency are essential to expanding access to finance in Mexico.”

Basikon’s platform enables banks, SOFOMES, leasing firms, and fintechs to digitise lending operations, reduce costs, and launch products rapidly in an increasingly competitive market. The company’s modular architecture supports AI-driven workflows, omnichannel distribution, and end-to-end digital loan and lease management.

Mexico represents a strategic focus for Basikon, driven by the scale and maturity of its specialised credit market. The partnership with AMFE follows Basikon’s recent expansions into Colombia, Peru, and Central America, as it positions itself to support financial institutions navigating regional macroeconomic headwinds and an accelerating push toward digital finance.

Latin America’s fintech ecosystem is one of the most vibrant in the world, with Mexico and Brazil leading in startup activity. At the same time, evolving regulatory frameworks are opening the door for technologies like open finance, artificial intelligence, and embedded lending — all areas where Basikon aims to play a transformative role.

Throughout 2025, Basikon will actively contribute to AMFE’s technical and innovation forums, including live product demonstrations, pilot programs, and collaborative initiatives designed to showcase how digital transformation can enhance customer experience and operational performance.
