Ottawa, December 9, 2020 — MindBridge, the pioneer in AI-powered risk and fraud detection solutions for financial professionals, today announced their strategic supplier relationship with MNP LLP, one of the largest accounting firms in Canada. The firm will utilize MindBridge’s intelligent risk assessment and detection technology for external audits, saving them time and resources to reallocate to growth endeavours.

David Danziger, Senior Vice President, Assurance & National Leader, Public Companies at MNP noted his firm’s top down, technology-first strategy, and the impact that AI and machine learning will have on MNP’s auditing procedures: “Utilizing MindBridge makes us more agile, efficient, and able to better serve our clients. The MindBridge AI platform saves us time we didn’t know we had. We’re training more, hiring more, and expanding our horizons. We look forward to the future of our relationship with MindBridge.”

“Working with MNP brings us closer to the future of audits and accounting. The future is automation, advisory, and AI. We’re proud to begin this journey with one of the most storied accounting firms in Canada. We’ll work closely with MNP’s team to continually evolve the functionality to provide them with ever increasing value,” adds Eli Fathi, CEO of MindBridge.

This relationship is surely the first of many to come out of our industry in the coming years. As artificial intelligence expands its influence, financial experts can expect the world’s firms to benefit from its efficiency, automation, and quality of work.
