Damman, KSA –April 06, 2017: Gulf Lifting Financial Leasing Company (GLFL), a subsidiary of Kanoo Group of Companies, recently implemented 3i Infotech's Kastle® Universal Lending Solution (Kastle® ULS) and integrated financial suite to streamline its business processes as well as automate the end to end operations right from origination to collection.

The application tackled a key challenge of GLFL, which was to get into the market and be Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA) compliant before March 2017 to launch their new business within a short span of time.

With this implementation, GLFL will be able to efficiently manage on-boarding and profiling of new customers, limit management and credit analysis along with handling its enterprise financial accounting and reporting requirements. Kastle® ULS and integrated financial suite provides system generated purchase order, asset delivery management, business partner management, servicing of credit limit covering major financial events and collection services of corporate clients as per regulations.
