CrossCountry Mortgage Partners with SimpleNexus to Implement CompenSafe Incentive Automation into Its Workflow

National lender selects CompenSafe to improve incentive compensation administration and communication

LEHI, Utah, Dec. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), an nCino (NASDAQ: NCNO) company and developer of the leading U.S. homeownership platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced that CrossCountry Mortgage is implementing CompenSafe™ to manage incentive compensation for its loan originators.

CrossCountry Mortgage is one of the nation’s largest retail mortgage lenders, operating a network of approximately 800 branch locations across all 50 states. The organization selected CompenSafe, the only incentive compensation management (ICM) solution designed for mortgage lenders, to provide staff with near real-time visibility into their pay and to automate complex payroll functions associated with managing mortgage compensation plans.

CompenSafe integrates with lenders’ loan origination systems (LOS’s) to automatically calculate compensation as loans fund. Flexible enough to process draws, guarantees, tiers, quality-related payments and more, the platform enables lenders to reliably produce payroll more quickly and accurately than spreadsheet-based incentive compensation management methods. CompenSafe gives loan officers, branch managers, processors, underwriters and all employees greater transparency into their commissions, bonuses and overrides by outlining how compensation is calculated and when it will be dispersed. A cloud-based portal enables employees to view compensation updates, submit questions to payroll and manage compensation disputes, all in one place for complete audit and compliance.

“Incentive compensation is the largest expense in lenders’ ledgers, and it is also one of the most burdensome to manage,” said Ben Miller, CEO of SimpleNexus. “CompenSafe is a value-add that helps lenders like CrossCountry Mortgage recruit and retain key employees, eliminate cumbersome administrative processes, mitigate risk and protect their bottom lines.”

About SimpleNexus
SimpleNexus, an nCino (NASDAQ: NCNO) company, is an award-winning developer of mobile-first technology for the modern mortgage lender. U.S. lenders depend on our namesake homeownership platform to unite the people, systems and stages of the mortgage process into a seamless, end-to-end solution that spans engagement, origination, closing and business intelligence. By helping lenders manage their teams and stay connected with borrowers and real estate professionals, we deliver a measurable return on investment in the form of reduced turn times, increased loan application submissions and more referral business.

Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners is awarded 500-600 MW offshore wind in Taiwan

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Dec. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through its fund Copenhagen Infrastructure IV (CI IV), has been allocated 500-600 MW of capacity in the first round of the Taiwan’s Round 3 Zonal Development offshore wind auction.

On 14 December 2022 it was announced that CI IV’s Fengmiao offshore wind project, located ~35km off the coast of Taichung City in the Western part of Taiwan, was awarded 500-600 MW capacity for grid connection in 2027. Final capacity is subject to government announcement expected later in the month. CIP expects to start construction works on Fengmiao in 2025 and the project to start operations in 2027.

Partner in Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners Thomas Wibe Poulsen says, “We are very pleased with the awarded grid allocation to Fengmiao and we look forward to extending our contribution to Taiwan’s energy transition policy. Taiwan is a key offshore wind market for CIP, and Fengmiao further enhances our existing portfolio in Taiwan. We will now accelerate our efforts to finalize the procurement and offtake arrangements to support our final investment decision.”

CIP entered Taiwan’s offshore wind market in 2017 and Fengmiao is CIP’s third offshore wind project in Taiwan. In April 2018 CIP was awarded ~900MW capacity across two projects which are currently under construction: the 595MW Changfang and Xidao offshore wind farm and the 298MW Zhong Neng offshore wind farm, the latter a joint venture between CI IV and China Steel Corporation (CSC).

“Since entering Taiwan, we have worked alongside the Taiwanese government and local companies to develop and mature the local supply chains, and we remain faithful that the Taiwan government will soon announce an administrative contract which properly addresses the complexity and encourages the execution and on-time delivery of Round 3 projects,” says Mr. Poulsen.

The President made this statement at the event that brings together more than 100 representatives of companies from 28 countries with investment projects worth US $4 billion.

President Boric

SANTIAGO, Chile, Dec. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Over 100 representatives of companies from 28 countries with 56 investment projects worth US $4 billion and 1,900 potential jobs are participating in the InvestChile 2022 International Forum, which is Chile’s most important event for attracting foreign investment. InvestChile is the government agency responsible for promoting Chile in the global market as a destination for foreign direct investment.

The event was inaugurated this morning by the President of the Republic, Gabriel Boric, together with the Economy, Development and Tourism Minister, Nicolás Grau, and the InvestChile Director, Karla Flores.

The President referred to Chile’s potential to attract new investments since it offers tremendous opportunities and institutional solidity “that will help us to progress and improve the quality of life of our people, while making a global contribution. This requires reactivating the economy, where foreign investment plays a tremendously important role. Greater investment is synonymous with new jobs, which will restore peace of mind to thousands of families who have suffered as a result of our economic downturn, due to the COVID-19 crisis and the global economic slowdown”, said President Boric.

Good news for Foreign Investment 

Minister Grau confirmed that the Forum is an extremely important opportunity for Chile to reinforce its commitment to foreign investment. “As you are well aware, despite difficulties worldwide, this has been a good year for Chile in terms of foreign investment. However, Chile has tremendous potential due to its institutional strength, its physical and digital infrastructure and because Chile can clearly combine the fight against the climate change with economic dynamism and greater investment in a totally exceptional manner”, said the Secretary of State.

Karla Flores is the InvestChile Director, and she sees the forum as a sign that foreign companies have a positive, long-term interest in investing in Chile. “We are fully committed as an agency to attracting investment projects to Chile so they can positively benefit our entire business ecosystem, add dynamism to our markets, generate greater competition, improve service quality and citizen access in key industries, all of which will improve the quality of life for Chilean citizens”, said Ms. Flores.

The first such Forum was held in 2014. It aims to provide participating companies with first-hand knowledge of emerging investment opportunities, new economic strategies and foreign investment policies in Chile. This is the sixth Forum and projects here focus on the Circular Economy, Global Services, Fintech, Tourism and Green Hydrogen. The companies that have submitted the most investment initiatives were from the USA, France, Argentina and Japan.

Luiss University and University of Dubai together to strengthen international relations. Signing of a Memorandum of Understanding And Student Exchange Agreement For The Business Schools

Luiss University and University of Dubai Together to Strengthen International Relations

A cooperation program to foster advancement in teaching, research and cultural understanding

ROME, Dec. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A cooperation program to foster advancement in teaching, research and cultural understanding. This is the focal point of the agreement signed between the University of Dubai and Luiss Guido Carli in Rome. Luiss and the University of Dubai will promote more contacts and cooperation between their faculty members.

It is to be emphasized that those two factors create a strong basis for the development of joint training programs, formulating joint research projects, exchange of teaching materials, and exchange of students. University education is the precondition for social development, especially an expansion of transitive skills.

They are needed not only in business but in every aspect of social life. It is, therefore, necessary to build bridges for university connections and create networks of knowledge– diplomatic, economic, and commercial. Under the signed agreement, both institutions will endeavor to develop and participate in entrepreneurship and innovation initiatives to strengthen creative capacity by boosting development through cooperation and the flow of knowledge among higher education, vocational education, and training, including research.

The purpose of this agreement is to promote an exchange between students regularly enrolled in graduate programs at the University of Dubai and those regularly enrolled in an MBA program at Luiss Business School.

The agreement can be considered a legacy of the participation of Luiss University in the Italian Pavilion at Expo Dubai.

Fluence Signed an MOU with EGAT to Develop Thailand Energy Storage Market, Expand Footprint in Southeast Asia

BANGKOK, Thailand, Dec. 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fluence Energy, Inc. (“Fluence”) (NASDAQ: FLNC), a leading global provider of energy storage products and services, and cloud-based software for renewables and storage, and the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT), today announced a memorandum of understanding to develop the battery-based energy storage market in Thailand. Fluence and EGAT aim to increase the deployment of energy storage to support the increased integration of renewables into the power grid and achieve Thailand’s clean energy targets.

“Thailand is an important market in Southeast Asia. We are excited to collaborate with EGAT and leverage our global experience delivering complex solutions for energy storage,” said Fluence Senior Vice President and President, APAC Jan Teichmann. “This engagement is a testament to the strong relationship between our organizations and provides a platform to identify energy storage opportunities in Thailand to help accelerate the country’s energy transition.”

According to International Renewable Energy Agency (IREA), at current usage levels, Thailand’s existing oil and gas resources will deplete within the next decade. Facing rising energy demand coupled with increasing reliance on imported sources of energy, Thailand’s government raised the country’s non-hydro renewable target from 20 to 30 percent by 2036. With this rapid projected penetration of renewable energy into the energy mix, energy storage can play a key role in stabilizing and strengthening the future grid. For example, storage can provide greater flexibility in the management of generation resources and optimize electricity costs.

“EGAT plans to collaborate with Fluence on developing Thailand’s energy storage services,” said Dr. Narin Phoawanich, Assistant Governor-Fuel Management at EGAT. “Storage is critical for allowing increased renewable energy integration while maintaining power grid stability and flexibility. We are moving in the right direction towards achieving our clean energy target.”

About Fluence

Fluence Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: FLNC) is a global market leader in energy storage products and services, and cloud-based software for renewables and storage. With a presence in over 40 markets globally, Fluence provides an ecosystem of offerings to drive the clean energy transition, including modular, scalable energy storage products, comprehensive service offerings, and the Fluence IQ Platform, which delivers AI-enabled SaaS products for managing and optimizing renewables and storage from any provider. The company is transforming the way we power our world by helping customers create more resilient and sustainable electric grids.

WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Announces Agreement to Divest UK Storage Segment

PHOENIX, Dec. 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp. (“WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: WSC), the North American leader in innovative flexible workspace and portable storage solutions, today announced a definitive agreement, whereby the Company will divest its UK Storage segment to Algeco UK Holdings Limited, a member of the Modulaire group for an enterprise value of approximately £335 million. Proceeds from the sale will be used to support growth investments in the Company’s North American Modular and Storage operating segments and other capital allocation priorities. Completion of the transaction is subject to regulatory approval in the United Kingdom and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2023. The Company does not anticipate any impact to operating results from the divestiture in its NA Modular or NA Storage segments, and the UK Storage segment will be reported as discontinued operations in its Q4 2022 financial filings.

Brad Soultz, Chief Executive Officer of WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings, commented, “Thank you to the Mobile Mini UK team for their dedication to WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings. This transaction and the previously completed divestiture of the Tank & Pump segment will complete the transition of our portfolio into a pure play provider of modular space and storage solutions in North America, where our industry-leading platform enjoys unparalleled scale benefits and allows us to deliver greater value to our customers and shareholders. Upon close, our capital allocation strategy will remain unchanged, and our leverage will be reduced towards the bottom of our 3.0 to 3.5x target range. We completed three additional highly accretive tuck-in acquisitions in our NA Modular and NA Storage segments during the fourth quarter to date and over 20 acquisitions in 2022 to date. We expect to continue to aggressively reinvest in support of our organic, and largely idiosyncratic, growth levers, opportunistic accretive acquisitions, and in returning value to shareholders through share repurchases given our existing $1B share repurchase authorization. We expect to provide 2023 financial guidance excluding the UK Storage segment during the Q4 2022 earnings call in early 2023.”

Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP acted as legal adviser to WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings.
