To stay relevant, banks and credit unions need to act now. This report underscores the need for financial institutions to architect their operations around their customers and members. And the best way to do that is to replace legacy point solutions with a single engagement banking platform, such as Backbase. With our platform, FIs can break down silos, reduce technical debt, and unite seamless customer and employee journeys — empowering them to break free from legacy infrastructure and effectively compete in a digital first world.” concluded Bezemer.
