According to an Independent Research Study by Aite GroupJACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FIS™ (NYSE:FIS) today announced that it has been named the core banking vendor most admired by chief information officers of large North American banks (i.e., top 120 by assets) in a recent Aite Group research study. FIS, one of the world’s largest providers of banking and payments technology, is admired as a vendor of core banking solutions by more technology executives of large banks than any other company.
Sixteen core banking vendors were ranked by North American technology executives from large financial institutions. Overall, the study covered eight key technology areas including IT services and core banking, which were evaluated by the large institutions, while both small and large institutions reviewed vendors in other technology sectors, including server hardware, database software, business intelligence, business process management, storage services, and security information and event management.
“While admiration may seem like a “fluff” term, we believe it indicates which vendors will be more likely to win business regardless of market share,” noted Gwenn Bezard, Aite Group co-founder and research director. “We also believe that the large number of vendors mentioned in this survey indicates that vendors face savvy buyers, leaving little room for anything less than outstanding engineering, sales and marketing, and delivery."
“FIS is very pleased to achieve this recognition from the market. We take pride in being the largest provider of financial services worldwide, but it’s more important for us to be recognized as the best in the industry,” stated Anthony Jabbour, executive vice president, FIS Financial Solutions Group. “We view our number one position as a testament to FIS’ customer focus and unmatched ability to develop and deliver market-leading core banking solutions and IT services.”
