Rajashekhara V. Maiya, Associate Vice President and Head – Finacle Product Strategy, Infosys Finacle:

“A rapidly changing environment and increasingly sophisticated customer demands are driving banks to reconfigure their business model. However, most large banks are constrained by legacy technology. They are hesitant to undertake core banking modernization due to high complexity and costs. Finacle, with its componentized structure, simplifies the transformation journey for large banks and creates competitive advantage.”

Robert Hunt, Senior Research Director, CEB TowerGroup:

“Modern core banking systems enable adaptability and agility by providing a flexible and configurable platform on which to develop strategies and products. Infosys Finacle was a strong performing core solution in the report, earning two ‘Best-in-Class’ ratings for Product Management and Operational Flexibility and receiving high scores for the two remaining categories.”
