Fincentric Celebrates 20 Years of Software Innovation
Vancouver, BC, June7, 2004 –
Fincentric Corporation, a leading provider of core banking and customer
value management software, announced that it had reached a major
milestone in the company’s history – its 20th anniversary.
It was June 5, 1984 that its founders incorporated the company,
originally named Prologic, and began to develop the world’s
first Personal Computer-platform core banking software system. Today,
the Richmond, B.C.-based company employs over 180 people, has offices
in the US, UK, Mexico and Canada, and has customers in 27 countries
around the world.
“It is with thanks to our customers and our
team of talented and passionately dedicated employees that we mark
our twentieth anniversary,” stated Alice Laberge, Fincentric’s
President and Chief Executive Officer. “With a history of
software innovation and leadership, we continue to realize our vision
to help financial institutions grow the value of their customers.”
Fincentric’s founders recognized the opportunity to take
the software functionality that existed exclusively on the mainframe
platform, which included real-time transaction processing and applications
for deposit taking and lending, to the low-cost PC-platform.
“Not only were our founders revolutionary in bringing mission
critical banking to the Microsoft/Intel-platform, but they also
pioneered the first truly customer-centric banking system,”
said Shirley Sellers, product manager. “While most banking
systems view a customer as a group of independent accounts, ours
was architected to identify the customer as a single entity, with
profile information, accounts and relationships created from the
central record. Fincentric has led the industry in its software
design approach to relationship banking.”
Fincentric continues to release innovative products for the financial
services industry. Its newest product is Wealthview Leadbuilder,
an application for increasing leads by distributing targeted marketing
campaign offers to frontline service representatives at the point
of customer interaction.
