That was the message from Lee Wetherington, Director, strategic insight, Jack Henry & Associates/ProfitStars, Valdosta, Ga. On Tuesday, Wetherington told attendees of the CUNA CFO Council conference here credit unions are set up to help members make real-time decisions about their money. The key to CUs’ future, he said, is data.

“There is a lot of talk about Big Data and the targeted ads Google does,” he said. “Google does so to try to approximate what credit unions already have. Google fantasizes about having the data credit unions have about their members.”
