“Despite the recession, nearly all of this year’s Enterprise 25 list showed strong growth,” said Rebecca Sausner, editor of Bank Technology News. “This year’s list includes three new entrants — SAP, Reed Elsevier and HCL Technology. Dropping off the list are Electronic Data Systems (acquired by HP), Getronics (acquired by KPN and CompuCon), and Infosys.”



“When we look at the FinTech Enterprise 25 we are looking at the world’s largest hardware, software and services integrators into the financial services industry,” said Dana Wiklund, research director, Risk Management, IDC Financial Insights. “Many of these companies, including IBM and Oracle, have been branching beyond their core competencies in hardware and data processing to round out their value propositions with enterprise risk management solutions. The companies that make up the Enterprise 25 have deep, embedded positions within the financial services industry and leverage unique perspectives on driving economic value for their clients through an unprecedented financial crisis.”



Consideration for the top 25 enterprise technology companies for 2009 is determined by calendar year-end revenues (CY08) and the percentage of revenues from sales to financial services industry clients, with final rankings based upon total sales to financial institutions. In addition to the FinTech Top 25 Enterprise Technology Companies, American Banker, Bank Technology News and IDC Financial Insights also released the 2009 FinTech 100 ranking of the top technology providers to the financial services industry.



The 2009 honorees will be honored at the BAI Retail Delivery Conference & Expo in Boston at an awards breakfast on November 4 at the Westin Boston Waterfront.
