New research reveals how leading financial institutions are elevating processor relationships — and what separates the institutions pulling ahead from those falling behind.
New American Banker research, in collaboration with i2c, explores how the issuer processor relationship is evolving from operational necessity to strategic advantage and what that means for financial institutions competing in today's payments landscape. As institutions accelerate payments modernization, they increasingly depend on their issuer processors to drive innovation, improve platform flexibility and bring new products to market faster.
Join American Banker's Michael Moeser as he sits down with Dean Scharmen, Chief Growth Officer at i2c and Julie Schmitz, Co-Founder at Scale Solutions Group as they discuss how expectations for issuer processors are changing, what financial institutions now look for in a strategic payments partner and how the right partnership can create a lasting competitive advantage.
Financial institutions leaders who attend will learn:
- Why issuer processors are becoming strategic modernization partners
- Which processor capabilities have the greatest impact on innovation and growth
- What institutions expect from issuer processors over the next 3 to 5 years
- Practical considerations for evaluating and strengthening issuer processors partnerships
