Paper City Savings has a long history of serving the residential mortgage market in South Wood County, Wisconsin, but identified an opportunity to expand its business into commercial banking with a robust commercial offering. Through the upgraded core and digital banking platforms, the bank is improving its self-service channels and streamlining its lending and mortgage capabilities (through Fusion LaserPro and Fusion Mortgagebot) to process loans much faster. The improved efficiencies, combined with new product offerings addressing bill payments, real-time payments and account-to-account and person-to-person transfers will delight retail and commercial customers alike.
“To meet today’s expectations and establish true differentiators in the market, community banks must be able to anticipate customer needs and service them in a way that matches current expectations,” said Chris Zingo, SVP and GM of Americas Field Operations, Finastra. “With our Fusion Phoenix core, Paper City Savings will have a total view of the customer based on data from across silos, including retail, commercial deposits, and loan servicing, all within a single database.”
