nCino, the worldwide leader in cloud banking, today announced a round of funding led by funds and accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., with participation from existing investor Salesforce Ventures.

The nCino Bank Operating System is a single, end-to-end SaaS solution for financial services built on the Salesforce platform. nCino improves employee efficiency while enhancing the customer experience for onboarding, loan origination and deposit account opening across all lines of business, powered by advanced analytics and actionable, data-driven insights to help deliver a fast, convenient and personalized banking experience. nCino integrates with a financial institution’s transactional systems, while replacing point solutions and manual-based processes, driving significant productivity and efficiency gains.
To support the growing demand for its technology globally, nCino now employs more than 750 people across its offices in London, Sydney, Toronto and Salt Lake City and its worldwide headquarters in Wilmington, N.C. This capital will enable the company to further scale its global workforce and accelerate investment in research and development to bring innovations such as analytics, artificial intelligence and pricing to its growing roster of more than 1,100 customers.
“Since day one, our vision has been to be the worldwide leader in cloud banking,” said Pierre Naudé, CEO of nCino. “We believe that a strong partner ecosystem is critical to maintaining a customer-centric approach in everything we do. This strategic fundraise aligns with that vision and mission by leveraging the investment approaches of two industry leaders to help us further scale our business and Bank Operating System to continue enabling financial institutions to provide the kind of personalized, streamlined and fast experiences that customers have come to expect in the digital era.”
