Sandor:
“At CIRCEO, we built TheLoanFactory on 20 years of experience in credit and technology.
Our mission: to provide leading institutions with a robust, secure, and scalable platform.”
1. WHAT IS YOUR ROLE AS CTO OF CIRCEO?
“Behind every innovation is rigorous technological orchestration.”
Sandor:
“My role is to orchestrate technology, security, cloud, and compliance so that everything works in harmony.
I design internal technology workflows in accordance with standards such as ISO 27001, I manage the product roadmap, and I bring in new talent to support our growth.
My goal is to ensure innovation, scalability, and compliance in a demanding industry."
2. WHAT IS THE BIGGEST TECHNOLOGICAL CHALLENGE FACING BANKS TODAY?
“Innovating quickly while remaining flawless.”
Sandor:
“Banks have to juggle system modernization, AI integration, and compliance with an ever-changing regulatory framework.
They are also under pressure from neobanks and fintechs.
With TheLoanFactory, we offer a cloud-native architecture that ensures speed to market, continuous compliance, and scalable innovation.”
3. HOW DO YOU RECONCILE INNOVATION AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS?
“Compliance is not a hindrance, it is a driver of innovation.”
Sandor:
“We build compliance into the design from the outset.
For example, our data anonymization and archiving policies are fully configurable.
We don’t limit ourselves to product capabilities: we also cover vulnerability management, business continuity, and patches.
In this way, every technological innovation strengthens our compliance.”
4. OVERCOMING PERCEPTION TO PROVE VALUE
Sandor:
“Some view TheLoanFactory as a simple workflow engine, without realizing the depth of our expertise in lending and compliance.
A concrete example:
We migrated the loans and assets of a major bank by integrating dozens of existing systems. Users reported smooth adoption and a significant improvement in customer satisfaction.”
5. AI AND LOW-CODE WILL TRANSFORMS BANK LENDING
Sandor:
“The next five years will be marked by AI and low-code/no-code platforms, which will enable banks to adapt their products even faster.
The user experience will become a major differentiating factor.
