GIFT City, Gujarat — Omnified, the vendor-neutral KYC and AML orchestration platform for globally regulated financial services, has been selected for the GIFT International Fintech Innovation Hub (IFIH) residential program. The cohort begins on August 03 and Omnified will operate on-site from IFIH at GIFT City for the duration of the program.

IFIH is GIFT City's flagship residential accelerator for fintech and regtech companies building for the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC). Its cohorts are curated in close proximity to IFSCA, banking units, fund managers, capital-markets intermediaries, and insurers operating in GIFT City — the exact population Omnified serves.

Why this matters

IFSCA-regulated entities in GIFT City routinely onboard investors from a dozen jurisdictions in a single fund close. Omnified's platform collapses that complexity into a single API and a normalised, audit-ready case file — with per-jurisdiction rulebooks (IFSCA, MAS, and more), waterfall vendor routing, and a hash-chained audit trail that maps to PMLA, FATF, and IFSCA AML/CFT & KYC Guidelines.

The residency puts Omnified inside the same building as the entities designing their onboarding, monitoring, and reporting workflows for GIFT City — shortening every feedback loop that matters: rulebook accuracy, sandbox testing, vendor coverage, and compliance sign-off.

What Omnified will run during the residency

  • Design partnerships with IFSC-licensed FMEs, IBUs, CMIs, and IIOs onboarding cross-border investors.
  • Live sandbox trials of the Omnified IFSCA rulebook (ifsca-gift-v1.0.0) with real, PMLA-aligned BO thresholds and V-CIP evidence rules.
  • Joint sessions with vendor partners on waterfall routing that shaves 40–60% off unit KYC cost without dropping approval rates.
  • Compliance office hours for cohort peers building against IFSCA, MAS, and adjacent regulators.
