Are you running your core system or is your core system running you?
Community banks and credit unions need a core system that can serve their needs as they change. Yet there is fear around changing core systems: fear of being paralyzed while the change is underway, fear of business disruption, fear of overhauling internal processes, and fear that it won’t be worth it in the end.
Those fears were realistic in the past, but things have changed. Replacing a legacy core system isn’t simply a nice idea; it’s a necessity to keep relevant.
Open banking, microservices architecture, platformification, and access to more efficient cloud hosting make core replacement far more valuable. Not only that, a 40+ year old core keeps the bank or credit union stuck in the past, unable to fully embrace the platform world and the ever-evolving introduction of emerging technologies.
It’s time to leave your legacy core and move into the future.
