PADUCAH, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CSI, a leading provider of end-to-end financial software and technology, today announced that it has been named “Banking Infrastructure Platform of the Year” in the 10th annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards program. Conducted by independent market intelligence organization FinTech Breakthrough, the program recognizes the top companies, technologies and solutions in the global FinTech market today.
CSI serves community and regional financial institutions as an end-to-end technology partner, helping them compete with the largest banks and fintechs through open software, digital-first experiences and a commitment to exceptional service. CSI’s core banking platform, NuPoint, provides a unified banking infrastructure so institutions can streamline operations, develop additional revenue streams and reach new customers.
“Financial institutions need a core platform that helps them operate efficiently while giving them the flexibility to innovate and grow,” said Nancy Langer, president and CEO of CSI. “NuPoint’s rise as the second most-used core in the U.S. reflects the demand for modern, open technology that supports that evolution. Combined with CSI’s hands-on partnership model, our technology gives banks the tools they need to modernize and compete effectively.”
CSI has systematically evolved NuPoint’s architecture to give banks a more flexible foundation for growth. Built on private cloud infrastructure with an extensive API catalog, the platform eliminates the rigid technology silos that have historically limited innovation in core banking systems.
Institutions can integrate best-of-breed fintech solutions, customize digital capabilities and deploy new services spanning consumer and business banking, lending, deposits and customer engagement. This open architecture allows transaction processing, loan management, fraud detection and analytics to operate within a unified ecosystem.
“CSI’s technology provides an essential foundation for financial institutions to achieve their growth goals as they compete with the largest banks and fintechs,” said Steve Johansson, managing director of FinTech Breakthrough. “By combining an expanded suite of advanced capabilities with the flexibility to integrate third-party technology, NuPoint gives banks a reliable, integrated core processing platform that supports innovation and competitiveness.”
