Making changes to any core banking system is one of the most challenging and intensive projects faced by IT managers. The continual evolution of technology and banking products, and the weight of new regulatory requirements, means a replacement or upgrade of the core system will face every bank sooner or later, regardless of its size, scope of operations and geographical location.

This extensive online compilation of independently researched case studies presents an unbiased view of the challenges faced by each financial institution, and the outcomes.

Changing a core banking system is probably one of the most complicated and intensive projects faced by IT managers and even the most experienced will approach this task with more than a little apprehension.
