Key Terms

2 terms
core processing platform technical
"Both banks are transitioning to Jack Henry's innovative and highly configurable core processing platform"
A core processing platform is the central computer system that handles and manages essential financial transactions and data for a business or institution. It functions like the engine of a car, enabling smooth and reliable operation of critical activities such as account management, payments, and record keeping. For investors, a strong and efficient core platform is important because it ensures stability, security, and the ability to quickly adapt to changing needs.
fintechs financial
"open integrations with more than 1,000 third-party fintechs give the banks flexibility"
Fintechs are companies that use software and digital tools to deliver or improve financial services—such as payments, banking, lending, investing or insurance—often offering faster, cheaper or more convenient alternatives to traditional providers. For investors, fintechs matter because they can quickly reshape markets and capture growth like a new app that upends an old service, but they also face special risks from regulation, technology failures and intense competition.
