Illuminance announces global expansion and launch of its international platform

March 18, 2026
TORONTO, ON, March 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Illuminance has announced its entry into the international market simultaneously with the launch of its global platform, built on its own computational infrastructure powered by a distributed network of quantum nodes (Quantum Node). The platform is designed to support scalable operations across global financial markets, with a focus on high-frequency analytics and automated data processing.The modern economic landscape demands a fundamentally new type of infrastructure — one that goes beyond traditional financial products. With its international launch, Illuminance positions itself not as a standalone platform, but as a next-generation computational layer for the evolving financial ecosystem.At the core of this architecture is the Quantum Node — a distributed computational unit that forms the foundation of the entire system. These nodes are responsible for processing large volumes of market data, performing parallel analytical operations, and enabling high-speed decision-making across the network.Each quantum node contributes to the platform's overall computational power, allowing the system to dynamically scale as the network grows. This distributed approach ensures low latency, high throughput, and stable data processing even under heavy loads.The infrastructure is supported by the Illuminance Grid, which serves as the coordination layer. It synchronizes data flows between quantum nodes, manages task distribution, and aligns AI-based models in real time. Importantly, neither the grid nor the quantum nodes store users' funds or execute financial transactions directly — their role is strictly limited to computation and analysis, providing a clear separation between capital and infrastructure.This architecture enables Illuminance to overcome key limitations of both centralized and decentralized systems, particularly in areas such as high-frequency analytics and real-time market data processing. By separating financial execution from computational intelligence, the platform can operate at scale without overloads, making it highly effective for applications like automated crypto arbitrage.The system is built for continuous expansion. As more quantum nodes are integrated into the network, the platform's analytical capabilities grow, delivering deeper market insights and more efficient trade execution in global trading environments.The launch of the international platform marks a significant strategic milestone, positioning Illuminance as a provider of cutting-edge computational infrastructure for next-generation financial systems.About IlluminanceIlluminance is a technology company developing a high-performance computational layer for global financial markets. Its architecture is based on a distributed network of quantum nodes, complemented by the Illuminance Grid coordination system. Together, they form an infrastructure inspired by quantum technologies and optimized for automated crypto arbitrage. The platform focuses on real-world AI applications to ensure speed, scalability, and resilience in complex market conditions.Media Contact:corporate@illuminanceglobal.comhttps://illuminanceglobal.com Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

ZeroBiometrics 推出 ZeroSentinel，为自主AI系统引入人类问责机制 Finance

ZeroBiometrics 推出 ZeroSentinel，为自主AI系统引入人类问责机制

March 18, 2026
(SeaPRwire) - 旧金山，2026年3月18日 —— 今天，ZeroBiometrics 宣布推出 ZeroSentinel，这是一套将人类、AI 代理及其人类授权的权限进行加密绑定的产品套件。 ZeroSentinel 使用行业标准工具，将每一个具有重大影响的 AI 行为与经过验证、认证的人类决策者联系起来，并在每一步都收集完整的可追溯性、企业政策合规性和不可否认性证据。ZeroSentinel 提供了一个基于行业标准 PKI 的防篡改通信和控制平面，用于描述人类授权的 AI 行为和决策的精确范围及持续时间。此外，撤销 AI 颁发的证书即可充当紧急停止开关（kill switch）。 如果 AI 不受治理，天网（Skynet）就已经赢了 1984年，詹姆斯·卡梅隆在电影《终结者》中向世界介绍了“天网”（Skynet）——一个具有自我意识的虚构 AI，它认定人类是威胁，并自主采取行动消灭人类。没有人类授权它，也没有人类能阻止它。后果是不可逆转的。我们笑了，我们看了，我们买了爆米花。我们曾将“天网”视为科幻小说，但它真正的教训从来不是关于杀人机器人，而是关于当人类不再对 AI 的行为负责时会发生什么。 四十年后，那项问题不再是假设。AI 系统已经在人力资源平台、金融系统、法律工作流和运营基础设施中做出自主决策。问题不再是 AI 是否可以在没有人类授权的情况下行动——它可以。真正的问题是，当它这样做时，是否有人负责。在当今大多数企业中，答案是否定的。 2025年至2026年的企业 AI 竞赛越来越像是一个“天网”起源故事——不是以戏剧性的方式，而是以一种更安静、更系统化的方式。组织部署 AI 的速度远快于治理 AI 的速度。部署与问责之间不断扩大的差距正是真正风险所在。 “模型干的”这种辩护将无法立足 监管机构正在缩小这一差距。《欧盟人工智能法案》现在要求在数据使用、模型行为和人类监督方面实行问责制，罚金最高可达3500万欧元。NIST AI 风险管理框架和最近的美国总统行政命令也强化了同样的原则：如果 AI 在您的企业内采取行动，人类必须负责。 紧急停止开关不等于治理 企业经常谈论“AI 紧急停止开关”。但仅有停止开关并不等同于治理。真正的治理要求每一个具有重大影响的 AI 行为在执行前都必须绑定到经过身份验证的人类权威，而不是在失败后才进行调查。 在《终结者》中，人类不得不派人回到过去以重新夺回控制权。企业没有这种奢侈。建立控制权的时机就是现在——在代理式 AI 深度嵌入关键工作流、以至于干预意味着关闭业务之前。 卡梅隆的“天网”是伪装成娱乐的警告。真正的警告更为安静——且已经在现代企业内部运行。问题不在于您的 AI 是否会代表您采取行动，而在于它是否会在您定义的权限范围内行动——ZeroSentinel 确保它能做到这一点。 联系方式alfred.chan@zerobiometrics.aidavid.burnett@zerobiometrics.ai本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Against this backdrop, the Company will adhere to a high-quality development philosophy, closely aligning with the goal of becoming a world-class port logistics service provider. The Company will focus on our core business, improve operational efficiency, and strive to enhance global competitiveness and sustainable development capabilities.First, the Company will prioritize strategic guidance to optimize our global port layout. Guided by the principle of “expanding globally while deepening efficiency domestically”, the Company will accelerate the construction of a global terminal network that synergistically integrates developed and emerging markets, greenfield and brownfield terminals, and hub and gateway ports. The Company will strengthen corridor development, elevate service levels at key hub ports such as COSCO SHIPPING Ports Chancay PERU S.A., Piraeus Container Terminal Single Member S.A., and CSP Abu Dhabi Terminal L.L.C., and systematically advance hardware and software investments aligned with business growth and smart, low-carbon initiatives. Concurrently, the Company will increase the size of feeder networks, enhance route aggregation effects, and achieve a strategic framework where all terminals connect to form a network and develop synergistically.Second, deepen operational synergy to comprehensively enhance quality and efficiency. The Company will adhere to lean operations while strengthening marketing and internal coordination, as well as closely monitor shifts in the international shipping landscape to increase coverage of the parent company’s dual-brand routes at subsidiary terminals. The Company will also deepen business integration with the fleet of China COSCO SHIPPING Corporation Limited (the Company’s ultimate controlling shareholder) to accelerate diversified business development. The Company will expedite the construction of a digital marketing and business platform to transition from experience-driven to data-driven operations. Key initiatives include advancing the intelligent route planning project to enhance operational efficiency and strengthening standardized management of equipment throughout its lifecycle to sustain operational capacity.Third, strengthen network aggregation and enhance comprehensive service capabilities. The Company will focus on upgrading from “single-point development” to “network synergy.” Continuously reinforce trunk and feeder networks and corridor development at key hubs to enhance transshipment and network capabilities.

March 18, 2026
HONG KONG, Mar 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Insurance is an important sector of the modern economy and plays a vital role in national economic development, people’s livelihood protection, social stability, and risk prevention and control. As a leading private insurance group in China, Sunshine Insurance (06963.HK) further advanced the implementation of its “New Sunshine Strategy” in 2025. Despite a complex market environment, the Company achieved steady progress while maintaining both quality and efficiency, demonstrating strong resilience and long-term growth potential.Value Creation Capability Continues to Rise, with Notable Progress in Business TransformationThe continued enhancement of value creation capability was a key highlight of Sunshine Insurance’s performance in 2025. During the Reporting Period, the Company’s total premium income reached RMB150.72 billion (all amounts in RMB unless otherwise stated), while net profit attributable to equity owners of the parent amounted to RMB6.31 billion, and embedded value steadily increased to RMB120.78 billion. Overall, the Company’s key performance indicators remained solid, and its operating quality continued to improve.Meanwhile, Sunshine Insurance has continuously optimized its business structure with outstanding performance in its life insurance business. It has deepened its “One Body, Two Wings” strategy and advanced the transformation of its sales team and product structure. In its individual insurance business, variable-returns products and protection-type products together accounted for more than half of the portfolio. The property and casualty insurance business also achieved sustained structural optimization: the proportion of non-automobile insurance premiums rose to 46.1%, the share of household auto premiums to the automobile insurance increased by 2.6 percentage points year-on-year, marking remarkable results from business transformation.Continuous Innovation in Customer Management System, Leading Reputation and Customer LoyaltyRefined customer management and innovative products and services form the core competitiveness of Sunshine Insurance. In 2025, adhering to the “people-centered” value orientation, the Company accurately addressed the full life-cycle needs of its customers and further consolidated its customer base.Addressing the unique needs of the silver-haired demographic, Sunshine Life Insurance launched 12 dedicated products under the “Better Life”series, delivering innovative breakthroughs in product design, eligible age, benefit payout structures and supporting services. The Company also upgraded its home-based elderly care services, which now cover 232 cities nationwide. Meanwhile, Sunshine Property & Casualty (P&C) Insurance introduced auto insurance claims service robot, enabling round-the-clock online response and full-process support throughout the claims journey. It also launched several Pro-version short-term health insurance products, effectively facilitating the conversion of single auto insurance customers into customers with comprehensive insurance coverage.

Additionally, the Company further advanced its “Partnership Action” risk management services, extending dedicated services to the onshore wind power sector and providing “professional + technology-enabled” risk solutions to 35,000 corporate clients. As a result, its service reputation and customer loyalty continued to lead the market.Accelerating Technological Innovation, Achieving Comprehensive Improvements in Operational EfficiencyTechnological innovation has become a new quality productivity driver for Sunshine Insurance’s high-quality development. In 2025, the Group comprehensively advanced the implementation of its “Robotics Engineering” and “Data Engineering” initiatives, with a large number of core AI applications successfully deployed. Sunshine Life independently developed an “AI Customer Management Assistant,” capable of second-level response times and quickly generating personalized customer management plans. The system has now been deployed across six major business platforms.Sunshine P&C has also launched a Claims Service Robot, leveraging a dedicated customer claims service group model to create a fully online, end-to-end service loop covering claim reporting, intelligent loss assessment, and claim payment. Customer inquiry response times have been shortened from minutes to seconds, claims inspection efficiency has improved by 20% compared with traditional models, and the customer satisfaction rate has reached 98%, significantly enhancing both service responsiveness and the overall claims experience.In terms of data engineering, Sunshine Insurance has innovatively built a siphon-style database, integrating the entire process of data collection, analysis, and application. This enables a self-driven, closed-loop operation of data, allowing data to truly become the “source of vitality” that drives business growth.Overall, the strong performance in 2025 serves as a vivid testament to Sunshine Insurance’s deepened strategic transformation and focus on high-quality development, and is also a significant result of technological innovation empowering its core insurance business. Looking ahead, the Company will remain committed to its founding mission of “bringing more sunshine to people,” further strengthening its core capabilities, deepening its engagement in people’s livelihood security, proactively aligning with national strategies, and delivering premium, more efficient and more human-centered insurance services to customers, thereby contributing Sunshine’s strength to the high-quality development of the industry.

This scheme has been standardized and is currently being rolled out to other sites. Practical Application of "MAG Machining" to Reduce Costs and Environmental Impact Aimed at Skin Panel Manufacturing for Aircrafts[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. Commercial Aircraft Systems]Skin (Bottom) and Frame (Top) Processed by MAG MachiningMHI has put their "MAG (Mitsubishi Advanced Green) Machining Method" into practical use for high-precision machining of large core aircraft structural panels (frames and skins). Conventional chemical milling, which uses large quantities of chemicals to melt aluminum, was previously required for precision machining aluminum alloy panels up to 9 meters long with tolerances in the 10-micron range, meaning that reducing chemical usage to lower costs and environmental impact was a pressing challenge. Therefore, MHI developed MAG machining that combines cutting tool capable of handling complex shapes, technology that controls machining volume while measuring plate thickness using ultrasonic waves, and technology that automatically rectifies machining paths. MHI first adopted this for skin processing in FY2017. Then, by FY2025, the Company achieved the world's first machining of frames and completed the adoption of MAG machining for all parts previously processed by chemical milling. Compared to before, costs were reduced by approximately 30% and this fundamental machining method for aircraft manufacturing - established globally only by MHI - has been highly praised by The Boeing Company in the U.S. Autonomous Mobile Collaborative Robot Platform "FCR-PF"Automation and Reduced Processing Times in Manufacturing[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. Research Institute]Flexible Collaborative Robot Platform: FCR-PFMHI Group has developed and implemented an autonomous mobile robot system (FCR-PF: Flexible Collaborative Robot Platform) to enhance throughput, reduce lead times, and minimize manpower at its manufacturing sites. This collaborative robot system, which can work together with workers in existing production areas, is software-driven and can easily increase the number of tasks it can handle by installing applications and changing the hand at the tip. It is also characterized as a "multi-skilled worker " that can perform not only one task but various other tasks. In addition, it can perform difficult tasks by cooperating with multiple robots, and it is also possible to combine individually introduced robots according to the situation. The development was completed with specifications that can be operated even in harsh field environments, and the system has already started to be operated in the manufacturing sites of the group. It has contributed to freeing workers from dangerous work and simple repetitive work, shifting to high-value-added work, and robotization/mechanization of skilled skills. In the future, the autonomous mobile multi-skilled worker collaborative robot system, which can improve the capacity utilization rate and investment effect, is expected to expand automation to improve throughput and shorten lead time. MHI Has Developed Ultrasonic Testing that Significantly Reduces Inspection Lead Times[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. Research Institute]MHI has developed two UT (Ultrasonic Testing) technologies that enable inspections otherwise impossible with conventional methods. The "Adaptive UT" technology estimates the surface profile and corrects wave reflection and refraction, enabling direct inspection of internal defects without modifying complex surfaces. This technology has been implemented in boilers, reducing inspection lead times by 70% during periodic boiler inspections. In steam turbines, commercial aircraft, special vehicles, and other applications, it has enabled the inspection and quality verification of areas that were previously difficult to assess, resulting in greater design flexibility and improved reliability. The "Internal Thread UT" quantitatively measures thread height to determine damage, enabling integrity assessment of threaded sections without removing any bolts. Compared to conventional inspections that required bolts to be removed, this approach significantly reduces inspection lead times by 80% for steam turbines. These UT technologies, which defy industry norms, greatly contribute to the Company's after-sales service operations and design innovations by expanding design flexibility while ensuring quality, and are also expected to help shorten manufacturing lead times through their application as in-process inspections on production lines. Maintenance Activities for Factory Infrastructure Equipment Utilizing Digital Technology in Factories[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. Value Chain Headquarters]Advanced Factory Management Using Infrastructure Data AnalysisThis refers to activities to advance equipment maintenance, which tasks that tend to depend on experience and skills, by leveraging digital technology. In practice, this involves utilizing digital technologies such as IoT sensors that can be easily retrofitted to equipment and data cleansing to extract key features (numerical representations of data characteristics) from large datasets, thereby streamlining and enhancing the efficiency of infrastructure maintenance operations within MHI factories. The focus was on Hiroshima Machinery Works Kan-on Plant, which has approximately 22,000 terminal electrical systems while IoT sensors have been installed in the transformer rooms at the very top of the electrical system, establishing a mechanism to monitor the entire plant. Previously, manual inspections and meter readings were conducted at all 22,000 terminal equipment points, but now, automatic evaluation can be performed using data from just 350 substations, aiming to reduce the inspection workload by approximately 60%. This reduces the risk of leakage and curtails power outage inspection times for individual equipment inspections, which helps to prevent factory downtime. This is something that can also be deployed at other factories. MHI Rolls Out Company-Wide XR PlatformAccelerating DX in Design and Production Processes[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. Digital Innovation Division]Improved Layout Marking Efficiency by Overlaying Blocking PlansMHI has promoted the company-wide deployment of XR(Note) technologies that enable the digital transformation of design and production processes by displaying digital data such as CAD in virtual spaces or on actual products, thereby preventing design rework and streamlining assembly and inspection operations. By standardizing and platformizing XR environment setup and operational procedures, the Company established a system enabling anyone to easily build and operate XR environments. As of the end of December 2025, adoption and pilot implementation have progressed accordingly across 12 departments. In aerospace systems, utilizing XR technology during the initial design phase assisted with identifying issues in product assembly and machining early on, helping to prevent rework. For commercial aircrafts and submarines, overlaying part installation positions onto the actual products has halved the time required for marking and layout work. Further company-wide implementation is expected to enhance profitability across the entire Group.(Note) XR (Cross Reality) is an umbrella term covering VR (Virtual Reality), AR (Augmented Reality), MR (Mixed Reality), and other related technologies.About MHI GroupMitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group is one of the world’s leading industrial groups, spanning energy, smart infrastructure, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense.

EQS via SeaPRwire.com / 2026-03-18 / 10:53 UTC+8 近日，英伟达GTC 2026大会描绘出“万亿Token工厂”蓝图的同时，一个更深层的问题正在发酵：当全世界都在忙着生产Token，谁来保证这些Token烧得值？ 黄仁勋对外释放了一个关键信号：在AI从训练走向推理的深水区，数据中心的黄金矿产正在从处理结构化数据的传统数据库，转向处理非结构化数据的AI引擎。单纯的算力堆砌正在让位于“数据精炼”，成为有效Token。 而迅策科技，这家深耕实时数据基础建设与分析多年的公司，正通过各行业垂类数据作为“Token增效器”，重新定义AI时代Token投入的产出比。 从“训练”到“推理”：游戏规则变了 AI的演进已经进入了新阶段。 前两年大家拼的是训练——谁的GPU多，谁就能炼出更大的模型。但今天，主角变成了推理。英伟达CEO黄仁勋在GTC演讲中反复强调，未来的AI要能“推理”——能反思、能思考、能规划。 这意味着AI不再只是根据提示生成内容，而是要像人类一样，拆解问题、推演路径、作出决策。 但问题随之而来：推理阶段的AI，对Token的消耗是指数级上升的，但对结果质量的要求，却不再取决于Token本身，而是有效Token。 通用AI的“蛮力困境”：用算力换精度 当下的通用型AI在提升推理精度时，普遍采取的策略是用算力换精度——通俗讲，就是用蛮力来“赌”结果。 典型的推理型大模型为了从多个可能性中选出最优解，往往会预先生成几个备选项，然后逐一打分，最后挑出得分最高的那个作为答案。这套机制听起来严谨，但代价是：每一步推理，都要多走几条“冤枉路”。 更大的问题是，推理本身存在失败的风险。一旦推理链条在中途断裂，或者最终选出的答案被判定为不合格，前面投入的海量Token将作废——没有复用价值，或可以回收的“残值”。 这是通用AI框架的共同挑战：在面对复杂任务时，Token的消耗量直线上升，而效果却往往在下行通道徘徊。 垂类AI的解法：用数据给大模型装个“外脑” 迅策给出的答案，是做“减法”。 垂类AI解决方案的核心，是用行业数据给大模型提供一个‘外脑’。这个外脑的作用，是用业务模型来优化推理路径，提前帮大模型判断哪些路走得通、哪些路是死胡同。 这套机制被称为“工作流模型的引导推理”。它的运作逻辑是：在Token开始大规模消耗之前，先由垂直行业的业务模型做一轮“可行性预判”——基于多年积累的高质量、高净值、场景化的垂直行业数据，迅策相当于帮大模型画了一张“避坑地图”。 这张地图的价值在于：它让AI少走弯路，甚至不走弯路。 当通用AI还在靠“试错”来接近正确答案时，迅策的用户已经直接站在高纯度数据的基石上，用更少的Token消耗，换取更高精度的业务结果。 “增效器”的商业逻辑：Token单价由市场定，Token“有效性”由数据定 Token的单价，由芯片的算力成本和市场的供需关系决定，这一点任何公司都无法左右。但Token的“效价”——即每一单位Token能够产出的业务价值——却可以由数据的质量来决定。 这正“Token增效器”的核心逻辑：它不是Token的“生产者”，而是Token价值的“放大器”。 在同样的算力成本下，高质量的数据可以让每一颗Token都烧得更值；在同样的Token预算下，高纯度的数据可以让用户获得更高的产出确定性。 这意味着一个实实在在的财务模型变化：算力成本正在变得越来越透明，买算力就像买电一样，价格趋同、无差异可拼。但数据不一样——数据是有记忆的，是有场景的，是有复利效应的。 今天用过的数据，明天还能用；今天沉淀的业务逻辑，明天能让模型变得更聪明。 从“计量”到“增效”：垂类数据的复利正在释放 迅策长期以来坚持在专业垂类数据建模与开发领域的深耕，其研发成果体现在不同阶段的技术平台中。而生成式AI的技术普及，正在加速这些积累的价值释放。 以Token流量计价的AI算力优化，是专业垂类数据服务的重要应用场景之一。随着生态的演进，Token还将实现跨应用、跨场景的通用——既可消耗于算力调度，也可用于优化垂直模型与高频数据调用。 用户在训练垂直模型的效果越好、消耗的Token越少、产出的业务结果越精准，其对迅策的依赖就越深，切换成本也越高。这不仅是商业模式的升级，更是一种基于数据复利的竞争壁垒。 结语 英伟达用“Token工厂”定义了AI算力的未来，而迅策科技正在用“Token增效器”重新定义AI数据的价值。 当算力趋同、模型开源，真正决定AI商业回报的，将不再是算力堆砌的“产量”，而是数据精炼的“产出量”。在Token经济的大潮中，能帮用户“省钱”的公司很多，但能让用户“每一分钱都花得更值”的公司，才是最终的赢家。 而这，或许正是资本市场对迅策科技“增长确定性”的期待所在。 2026-03-18 此财经新闻稿由EQS via SeaPRwire.com转载。本公告内容由发行人全权负责。原文链接: http://www.todayir.com/sc/index.php

Leveraging its “energy, alumina refining and aluminium smelting” integrated ecosystem, the Company’s current alumina and electricity self-sufficiency capacity covered 100% of its production and operations, effectively stabilizing production costs within a range minimally affected by market fluctuations. The Company currently operates a comprehensive aluminium smelter and an alumina refinery in Inner Mongolia and Shandong, with annual production capacities of 788,100 tons and 1.2 million tons respectively. It also possesses 2.98 million tons of aluminium hydroxide capacity, targeting an annual alumina capacity of 3 million tons. Relying on stable power provided by its captive power plants and the geographical advantage of proximity to bauxite import ports, the Company has mitigated the impact of external market price fluctuations on its operations.As of the end of 2025, the Company’s annual electrolytic aluminium labour productivity per capita reached as high as 670 tons, far exceeding the industry average of 300 to 400 tons per capita. This deep integration and scale effect across the entire industrial chain have positioned the Company at the forefront of Chinese aluminium smelting enterprises in terms of total cost management per ton of aluminium, building a highly competitive “economic moat” for profitability.Green Energy and Technological Upgrades Drive Further Improvements in ProfitabilityThe Company identifies “green and low-carbon” and “technological upgrades” as the core drivers for high-quality development. As of the end of 2025, the Company completed the construction of wind power plants with an installed capacity of 640 MW and solar power plants with an installed capacity of 110 MW. Green energy accounted for approximately 43% of total installed capacity and is expected to exceed 50% in 2026, far surpassing national industrial policy requirements. This not only significantly reduces the carbon footprint of production but also effectively lowers long-term energy costs.Meanwhile, the Company has comprehensively promoted the refined management of production technology, achieving intelligent control of the production process through the upgrade and transformation of cell control systems and automatic production line for aluminium ingot, as well as the installation of automatic laser cleaning device for guide rods. During the Reporting Period, the Company completed several core technology upgrades, including the recovery of waste heat from electrolytic flue gas and fully graphitized cathode retrofitting. This dual empowerment of technology and green initiatives has made the Company’s aluminium products a preferred choice in the international market, precisely meeting the low-carbon transition needs of industries such as lightweight automotive and 3C electronics, further expanding the high-end application market.Active Layout of Global Development Strategy to Enhance International CompetitivenessAs China’s electrolytic aluminium smelting capacity approaches the policy limit and overseas demand for downstream aluminium products continues to rise, the Company is actively responding to the Belt and Road Initiative. The Company is focusing on a global layout by orderly promoting overseas integrated projects with resource and energy advantages. As of the end of 2025, the Saudi project has made key progress both in regulatory approvals and site construction, with work commencing successively. Currently in the early construction stage, these overseas strategic layouts will drive global business growth and help achieve the vision of becoming a green aluminium industry group in the global market.Greening the Globe, Leading the Future: Building a New Modern Green Electrolytic Aluminium EcosystemLooking ahead, the Company will anchor its vision of “building a green aluminium industry group in the global market,” deepening its low-carbon transition and global layout. The Company will continue to increase the share of wind, solar and other green electricity in its energy mix, and achieve a breakthrough in energy efficiency by accelerating technological upgrades and digital-intelligent transformation, driving production toward ultra-low energy consumption.

FinHarbor Introduces Neobank Platform Designed to Go Live in Under 30 Days SeaPRwire

FinHarbor Introduces Neobank Platform Designed to Go Live in Under 30 Days

March 17, 2026
Cyprus, EU, Mar 16, 2026 - March 16, 2026 - (SeaPRwire) - FinHarbor recently announced a major update to its modular fintech infrastructure platform, expanding its crypto-fiat functionality and introducing a deeper orchestration layer across all modules. The updated platform bundles IBAN accounts, card issuing, payments and crypto-fiat exchange into a single stack, reducing typical launch timelines from more than a year to roughly one month. The company positions the platform as a ready-to-deploy foundation for fintech startups, embedded finance teams and licensed institutions that want to bring a financial product to market without building the entire stack internally. The problem it addresses Launching a neobank from scratch is still a long and expensive process. Most teams need 15–20 engineers, more than a year of development, and roughly €1.5–2 million before the first customer can even open an account. FinHarbor's approach is to remove much of that upfront work. The platform comes with core components already integrated: pre-built connectors to banking partners for IBAN and account infrastructure, card processing, payment rails, and crypto wallets. In practice, this means companies can start with a working financial product instead of assembling and connecting multiple vendors themselves. What changed in the new release The main change in the latest version is the introduction of a unified orchestration layer. Earlier versions of the platform offered modular components that could be connected together. The updated release adds a shared data model, a single audit log and compliance logic that operates across all modules. Clients now integrate through one API and operate under a single contract, while still keeping the option to replace individual components if needed. On the crypto side the platform has added extended custody capabilities for clients with specific blockchain integration requirements, broadening the range of supported networks and asset types. The compliance and AML tooling has also been updated, making it easier to configure the system to match each client's internal policies and risk frameworks across different jurisdictions. A recent deployment in four weeks One EU-licensed fintech company recently used the updated platform to launch a full neobank in 28 days, including IBAN accounts, card issuance and crypto-fiat exchange. The first week focused on core infrastructure: setting up the environment, integrating identity verification through SumSub, and connecting to the banking partner's IBAN account infrastructure. During the second week the team activated card issuing and configured the platform's connections to SEPA, SWIFT, and international payment rails provided by the licensed banking partner. The third week introduced the crypto layer – custodial wallets, exchange logic and fiat ramps. The final week was dedicated to integration testing, white-label interface customisation and the production launch. According to the company, the only noticeable delays were related to compliance approvals with the partner bank – a regulatory step rather than a technical limitation. Industry perspective "The new release is based on a simple idea: orchestration matters more than integration,” – said Ilya Podoynitsyn, CEO of FinHarbor. "Connecting APIs from several vendors isn’t the difficult part. The real challenge is making those components behave like a single product – with unified compliance rules, a shared audit trail and enough flexibility to avoid vendor lock-in. That’s the engineering problem we focused on solving.” Compliance and target users The platform includes built-in AML transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and configurable verification tiers. Suspicious activity reports can be generated in formats accepted by regulators, and every system action is recorded in a unified audit log accessible through the admin panel or API. Companies can operate under their own EMI, PI or VASP licence, or work through a licensed banking partner. The platform is designed to support both models and is aligned with regulatory frameworks such as MiCA and DORA. FinHarbor says the platform is primarily aimed at three types of clients: fintech startups launching an MVP, companies adding embedded financial services to an existing product, and regulated institutions – including banks or government organisations – that need on-premise infrastructure. It is best suited for companies looking to launch and iterate quickly on a proven infrastructure, rather than building every component from scratch. About FinHarbor FinHarbor is a technical platform provider for launching compliant, modular financial products – from wallets and neobanks to crypto ramps and OTC desks. Built on years of real-world fintech experience, the platform covers onboarding, compliance, wallets, transactions, cards, and reporting, delivered with a microservice-based architecture (ISO/PCI DSS-certified), a robust API layer, and on-premise or cloud-ready deployment. FinHarbor supports fiat-only, crypto-native, and hybrid business models across markets in Europe, MENA, and beyond.
