By Aarav Garg

Saint John’s Cooperative Credit Union (SJCCU) has selected Profile Software’s Finuevo Core platform as part of a broader effort to modernise its banking infrastructure and strengthen digital lending and member servicing capabilities in Antigua & Barbuda.

The deployment is expected to provide SJCCU with a unified core banking environment covering member lifecycle management, accounts, lending, payments, card operations, teller services and financial reporting. The move reflects growing investment by regional credit unions and cooperative financial institutions in modern banking infrastructure aimed at improving operational efficiency and supporting digital transformation initiatives.

Peta-Gay Rodney, General Manager at SJCCU commented, “The selection of Finuevo Core marks an important milestone in our digital transformation journey. The solution supports our commitment to operational excellence, prudent lending, and high‑quality member service.”

A major focus of the implementation will be credit operations, where Finuevo Core is expected to automate and streamline loan origination, credit assessment, approvals, collateral management and collections workflows. The platform will also support real-time portfolio monitoring and performance analytics, helping the credit union improve oversight across lending activities while reducing manual processing requirements.

Evangelos Angelides, Chief Executive Officer at Profile, stated, “We are pleased to partner with Saint John’s Cooperative Credit Union and support its transformation with Finuevo Core. Our solution fully addresses the specific needs of cooperative and retail financial institutions, combining robust core banking functionality with flexibility, security, and scalability.”

The system’s modular and API-enabled architecture is designed to allow integration with external platforms and future digital services without requiring major infrastructure replacement. The technology is also expected to support faster product deployment through built-in product configuration capabilities, enabling SJCCU to launch and manage new financial products more efficiently.

Profile Software said the implementation aligns with SJCCU’s strategic objectives to improve operational scalability, enhance member experience and strengthen governance and compliance processes.
