About me
Tachfin ELKENDOUSSI is a fintech solutions expert with years of experience in payment technologies and software solutions as well as a glimpse into the world of e-commerce.
I have worked in different roles in the financial technology industry, serving respectively as a lead proposal writer, sales manager, and product manager who had oversight over the new trends in fintech.
I have worked with companies leaders in their markets for payment technology solutions, the solution I’ve been in charge of selling and where I have the most technical/product insight and ability to source leads are the following:
- Card Management systems: enable banks to issue credit, debit, or prepaid cards either on a private scheme or on national/regional/international like Visa, MasterCard, Amex, JCB, and UPI…
- National payment switch infrastructure: either on the ISO®8583 or the modern ISO® 20022 instant payments protocol; I have pitched and set on the negotiation tables with many central banks for their acquisition of the system representing companies I used to work for.
- Core banking systems and Loan Management systems: core banking systems are the backbones of any financial institution, I had the chance to explore major Core banking solution provider platforms and propose their systems to end customers.
- Loan origination systems & instant loans: a loan origination system automates and manages the lending process.
- Mwallet, Mobile banking, Internet Banking, and agency banking: knowledge of the intricacies of wallet systems and the different wallet types in the market; i help assist fintechs with features choice and Figma UX design
- Support for obtaining banking license/payment institution: support in vendor choices, documentation preparation, drafting of processes mapping, communication with the central bank, and support during the defense of the institution’s technical offer at the central bank level.
Why Blogging?
Blogging gives you a creative outlet to share your thoughts, ideas, and passions. I am fascinated by writers, and for most of my career I was in charge of business writing and managing proposals, one day after reviewing the number of business proposals I have written and sent to prospects over a year; it was a huge folder with many docs and I woke up to the realization that I’m a prolific writer but not in the creative space. So I took this opportunity to start publishing on my blog about the topics of interest and share my knowledge in ebook format and video with an audience of the same interest.
