Fraser Valley Edelweiss Credit Union Now Live on Fincentric i-Wealthview Banking Software



Vancouver, BC — January 28, 2002 – Fincentric Corporation, a leading global provider of wealth management and next generation banking software, announced today that Fraser Valley Edelweiss Credit Union has fully converted its core banking platform to Fincentric’s i-Wealthview Banking™. The i-Wealthview system, running live since January 21, 2002 as scheduled, encompasses full banking functionality including core processing, back-office transaction processing and Internet banking. The credit union is running the newest version of i-Wealthview, version 3.5, released in December, 2001.

Fraser Valley Credit Union and Edelweiss Credit Union merged in May 2001, to form the Abbotsford BC-based financial institution aimed at servicing its members in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley and lower mainland communities. It has 14 branches and manages combined assets of over $1 billion (CAD).

i-Wealthview Banking™ replaces Fraser Valley Edelweiss’ previous banking system, and provides additional functionality, enhanced Internet capabilities and increased performance. Fincentric’s software also provides the credit union with Customer Value Management™ capabilities, allowing it to analyze the value of each member, formulate strategies to maximize their value, and increase retention of their valued members.

Keith Puiu, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fraser Valley Edelweiss Credit Union said, “We are extremely pleased with our conversion to i-Weathview Banking, which provides us with state-of-the-art functionality on a highly reliable, industry-proven platform. The team at Fincentric was diligent in meeting their deadlines and commitments with regards to the product, their professional services and pre-launch testing—ultimately this lead to a smooth transition. With Fincentric, we will continue building upon our platform for banking and member services.”

Mike Cardiff, Fincentric President and CEO, said, “We’ve worked closely with the team at Fraser Valley Edelweiss during last year to determine their specific requirements and objectives, and today they are live with the full functionality of our core banking system, i-Wealthview. As they move forward on our platform they will be able to analyze their customer relationships and develop strategies for growth in membership and retain more members through superior financial products and services.”
