Unlock Comprehensive Insights on Payment Performance and Bank Account Trends Beyond ACH Compliance

 ALPHARETTA, Ga., Sept. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ValidiFI, Inc., the leading provider of predictive bank account and payment intelligence, is excited to announce the release of its new quarterly report, designed to explore different areas of bank account and payment data to help businesses navigate the complexities of ACH compliance with Nacha, reduce fraud, and mitigate risks to enhance transaction efficiency. The report provides insights for organizations engaging in ACH payments, with a focus on account validation beyond regulatory compliance, highlighting the role of ValidiFI’s powerful solutions in reducing payment failures and improving customer experiences.

For High and NSF risk bank accounts, 2/3 of transactions result in a return.

With ACH transactions on the rise and the emergence of pay-by-bank applications, organizations looking to reduce processing fees and streamline payments, the importance of bank account validation cannot be overstated. ValidiFI’s report underscores the importance of analyzing bank accounts for low-risk, NSF-risk (non-sufficient funds), and high-risk indicators, revealing key insights. Choosing the right validation strategy for your needs is essential for onboarding customers, detecting bad actors up front, and ultimately drives growth by reducing friction and improving financial outcomes.

“For High and NSF risk bank accounts, 2/3 of transactions result in a return, such as an R03 (no account/unable to locate) or R04 (invalid account number), representing a substantial operational challenge for companies dealing with high-risk payments. In comparison, low-risk accounts have a 97% success rate,” the report reveals, underscoring the importance of having reliable bank account verification services.

Key Insights from the Report Include:

High-Risk

High-risk bank accounts show a significantly higher rate of returns. These accounts have experienced 11.5 times more ACH returns than low-risk accounts and subsequent payments result in only 14% being successful.

NSF Risk

NSF risk is a key predictor of future account performance. According to ValidiFI’s findings, there are 2 NSFs for every successful transaction for this group, leading to a disproportionate risk burden.

Low-Risk

In contrast, low-risk bank accounts in the ValidiFI database demonstrate consistently good payment behavior. This allows organizations the ability to streamline and auto-approve these consumers, resulting in significant cost and time savings.

“These insights from ValidiFI help organizations comply with Nacha regulations along with the tools necessary to assess and manage payment risks more effectively, resulting in a better customer experience,” said John Gordon, CEO of ValidiFI. “By leveraging bank and payment data to identify high-risk accounts, those with NSF risk, and low-risk bank accounts, organizations can tailor their workflows reducing the frequency of failed transactions and improve overall payment operations.”

Genedata Expands AI Discovery Workflows with NVIDIA BioNeMo Open Models, Including the New RFD4-Proteina Release

Bringing next-generation binder design models into production discovery

BASEL, Switzerland, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Genedata, a Danaher company, and the leading provider of enterprise software solutions for biopharmaceutical R&D, today announced the addition of the new RFD4-Proteina binder design model into Genedata’s AI-enabled discovery workflows, following the model’s introduction at NVIDIA GTC Berlin. As an early ecosystem partner, Genedata is among the first companies to make RFD4-Proteina available within its production discovery workflows. By connecting AI-generated molecular designs, scientific data, and laboratory results, Genedata helps researchers transform AI predictions into continuous learning cycles that accelerate biologics discovery.

The workflow begins with scientists defining target characteristics and required properties using Genedata’s AI co-scientist. NVIDIA’s open protein design models then generate and evaluate candidate binders within Genedata. As candidates move into laboratory testing, results are captured and linked back to the original designs, helping scientists refine and rank the next round.

“Advances in AI are creating unprecedented opportunities for protein and antibody discovery, but unlocking their full value requires more than access to powerful models alone,” said Othmar Pfannes, Ph.D., President of Genedata. “Researchers need a way to connect molecular design, experimental execution, and scientific data into a continuous learning process. Genedata serves as the digital backbone that brings these elements together, helping scientists evaluate more candidates before testing, preserve the scientific context behind each outcome, and build knowledge from one discovery cycle to the next.”

While advances in generative AI are rapidly expanding what scientists can design, many organizations still struggle to operationalize these models within production scientific research workflows. Genedata provides the orchestration, governance, and scientific data foundation needed to deploy NVIDIA BioNeMo open models, including RFD4-Proteina, directly within the discovery workflows scientists use every day. Researchers can apply AI-generated designs within established processes while maintaining lineage, traceability, and scientific context across the discovery lifecycle.

Within Danaher’s autonomous laboratory initiative, these capabilities connect AI, automation, and scientific data in a closed-loop discovery framework where each experimental outcome informs the next design cycle, creating a continuous learn-and-improve process that advances science while keeping scientists in control.
