nCino and 8am named to CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies 2026

CNBC and Statista’s fourth annual ranking places both companies in enterprise fintech — a segment now sorted by scale, profitability and regulatory maturity.

July 29, 2026

nCino and 8am have both been named to CNBC and Statista’s World’s Top Fintech Companies 2026, in the enterprise fintech category. Pare & Co works with both.

The List

The fintech market generated $650 billion in revenue in 2025, a 21% rise on the year before. Against that backdrop CNBC and Statista named the top 500 fintech companies globally across eight market segments, in the fourth consecutive year of the survey.

What the Category Rewards Now

Enterprise fintech is being sorted on different terms than it was a few years ago. Scale and profitability matter more, regulatory maturity is a qualification rather than a footnote, and the infrastructure demands of autonomous AI agents — software that moves money and verifies it without a person in the loop — are reshaping what the underlying platforms have to be able to prove.

nCino and 8am are both on the far side of that shift, which is what a placement in this category now describes.

The Work

Pare rebuilt 8am’s five brands onto one content architecture after twenty years of separate platforms, and reworked nCino’s Contentful implementation so that marketing published against the strategy rather than against the CMS.

Doug Sisko, Managing Director, Growth Practice:

“The recognition of nCino and 8am on CNBC’s top fintech list validates what we see every day — that enterprise fintech leadership demands more than innovative technology. It requires operational maturity, regulatory discipline, and the ability to scale with intention. We’re proud to support both companies as they navigate this evolution.”

Christopher Murray, founder and CEO:

“This recognition underscores the fintech sector’s shift toward sustainable competitive advantage. Companies winning in enterprise fintech are those that combine scale with regulatory maturity and intelligent infrastructure. Pare’s work with nCino and 8am reflects our commitment to helping industry leaders thrive in this new era.”
