Dyna.Ai’s Agent Studio, VoiceGPT, AvatarGPT and its FSI (Financial Services Industry) Suite were products exhibited at its booth

SINGAPORE, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Dyna.Ai, a Singaporean AI-as-a-Service company, took center stage at the 2024 Singapore Fintech Festival with the unveiling of its newest flagship product – Agent Studio.

Agent Studio is a groundbreaking AI agent builder platform built upon Dyna.Ai’s proprietary large language model (LLM). This innovative platform marks a significant evolution from traditional chatbots, offering a highly customizable and sandbox-like environment for businesses to create AI agents tailored to their specific needs. With simple low-code or no-code setup, Agent Studio allows companies to swiftly design and deploy agents that autonomously manage customer interactions across channels, including APIs, websites, and social platforms like WhatsApp.

Agent Studio enhances Dyna.Ai’s expanding portfolio of industry-leading AI-driven solutions, which includes its own AI platform, Agentic AI featuring VoiceGPT and AvatarGPT, along with the Financial Services Industry (FSI) Suite, all launched in 2024.

“We’re thrilled to introduce Agent Studio, a valuable tool for our partners and clients globally,” shared Tomas Skoumal, Chairman and Co-founder of Dyna.Ai. “Agent Studio exemplifies our commitment to providing a comprehensive suite of AI-powered solutions. Recognizing the diverse needs of different organizations and markets, we designed Agent Studio to empower businesses with granular customization capabilities.”

Founded earlier this year, Dyna.Ai has established itself as a key player in the global AI landscape. With a focus on cutting-edge AI models, sophisticated human-AI interaction technologies, and big data analytics, the company empowers businesses across various industries to achieve success in today’s competitive market.

“While there is certainly a lot of interest in AI adoption within Singapore’s financial sector,” commented Cynthia Siantar, Dyna.Ai’s newly appointed Singapore General Manager, “actual implementation may be fairly limited. There could be several factors at play, such as the prevalence of generic solutions that do not address specific needs. Often, these solutions leave institutions unsure how to leverage them effectively. Here is where Dyna.Ai offers a distinct advantage–our deep understanding of the financial sector allows us to create solutions that go beyond mere novelty, instead, bridging the gap between technology and practical problem-solving for our clients.”

LONDON, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Discussions around transferability rights of lenders remains an area of focus in the leveraged loan markets and in particular in the private credit arena where the “take and hold” nature of private credit loans is one perceived attraction of that asset class.

From a documentary perspective (with the detail always being in the drafting) key debate areas include:

1. The events of default which if triggered should enable an immediate lender assignment right
2. Silent and voting sub participations and differences in respective treatment
3. Blocks on assignment to industry competitors, sponsor competitors and loan to own investors and whether these apply at all times and for each of these
4. Reasonableness requirements applying to a borrower consent to assignment, deemed borrower consent provisions and the length of time silence is to infer deemed consent
5. The applicability of prior notice to a borrower/sponsor of any assignment (irrespective of borrower consent not being required)
6. Pre-approved new lender lists – additions and removals of names on any such list, how and often, by whom and whether removals of lenders should trigger any replacement of lender rights for the borrower.
7. Disqualified lender lists – the appropriateness of those particularly in the European leveraged loan market.

All of these are points of focus and with private credit crossing increasingly into the larger cap market and also servicing both sponsor and non-sponsor backed transactions the transferability rights of private credit providers is likely to be an area of further discussion for both lenders and borrowers as the asset class and its use continues to evolve.
