Envision Credit Union Goes Live with Fincentric’s i-Wealthview Banking™



Vancouver, BC — November 25, 2002 – Fincentric Corporation, a leading global provider of enterprise wealth management and core banking software, today announced that Envision Credit Union is running live with the company’s i-Wealthview Banking™ system.

As Canada’s third largest credit union, Envision is using Fincentric’s i-Wealthview Banking system to consolidate and transition away from multiple legacy banking systems onto one single fully integrated platform. The new banking system will help “break down” information silos to provide Envision’s 750 employees with a consolidated view of a customer’s existing accounts and products.

TELUS Enterprise Solutions provided IT professional services for Envision’s implementation and conversion onto the i-Wealthview Banking system and continues to provide ongoing application management and enhancement services, system operations and telecommunication network provisioning and management.

"Our partnership with Fincentric has given us the software tools we need to better manage and service our 100,000 members by providing a complete financial ‘snap shot’ of their holdings,” says Gordon Huston, Envision CEO. "This ‘snap shot’ gives us the ability to treat our customers in a holistic way. We can better plan, forecast, recommend services for each of our individual members. This ultimately strengthens our ties with members and leads to higher customer retention and loyalty."

Fincentric’s i-Wealthview Banking is a complete front-to-back office banking system for financial institutions with integration across multiple delivery channels, including Internet banking. An online transaction-processing (OLTP) engine, designed for high performance and high availability, completes the retail core processing system. Fincentric's software features Customer Value Management(tm) capabilities that enable the institution to analyze the value of each customer, formulate strategies to maximize their value, and increase customer retention.

"Envision is a forward thinking and technologically innovative credit union ? which translates into the provision of exemplary service for its members,” says Mike Cardiff, president and CEO of Fincentric. “As one of the largest credit unions in Canada, Envision is redefining how modern credit unions are able to compete head-on with the big banks."
