Market Signals.

The news feed for your ecosystem — funding rounds, partnerships, regulatory changes, leadership moves, and product launches, filtered and scored by how much they actually affect you. It is the first place to look when a bank partner calls to ask "what do you think about X?"

What counts as a signal

Every item in the feed is one of six types:

• Funding — a FinTech in your space raises a round. Signals valuation moves, competitive shifts, and acquisition candidates.
• Partnership — a new bank-FinTech integration or enterprise partnership. A leading indicator of where the market is converging.
• Regulatory — a change from OCC, FDIC, Fed, CFPB, FINRA, SEC, FinCEN, DORA, or a state regulator. Links back to the Regulatory Radar for deeper detail.
• Leadership — a CFO, CCO, or Head of Partnerships joins or leaves a relevant institution. Often the fastest path to re-opening a stalled conversation.
• Product — a major product launch or a material pivot in a FinTech's product line.
• Market — an industry research note, analyst report, or aggregate data point (e.g., McKinsey's "bank-FinTech partnerships rebound 34% YoY").

Relevance scoring

Every signal carries a relevance score from 0 to 100. The score is computed against your organization's profile the moment the signal is ingested:

• +40 if the signal names an organization in your active pipeline or your watchlist.
• +20 if the signal mentions your sector or a closely related one.
• +15 if the signal is regulatory and affects your organization type (bank vs. FinTech).
• +10 if the signal matches keywords from your partnership objectives.
• Base 15–30 from the editorial desk depending on broad market importance.

The feed is sorted by relevance with the highest-impact items at the top. You can filter by type, regulator, or search by keyword. There's no pagination limit — TECH keeps every signal from your membership date forward, so you can audit what you knew when.

Where signals come from

Sources are curated, not scraped. Each signal has a source_url field linking back to the original — a press release, an SEC filing, a newsroom article, a research report. Our ingestion pipeline combines:

• Press release wires (Business Wire, PR Newswire, GlobeNewswire) filtered for FinTech/banking keywords.
• Regulatory bulletins from the OCC, FDIC, CFPB, SEC, FINRA, and international regulators.
• Research notes from Gartner, Forrester, McKinsey, and industry analyst syndicates (licensed).
• A human editorial desk that flags nuance the automated layer misses.
