Community banks set to continue fintech investment

While big banks mobilize billions in tech development, community banks are continuing their own technology journeys through fintech investment. Fintechs provide community banks with unique opportunities to digitize the customer experience, Boyce Adams, senior vice president at payments fintech AvidXchange, tells Bank Automation News in this episode of “The Buzz” podcast.  “Your community or regional bank is going to be investing into different type of fintech applications that help power their solution set,” Adams says. “There's good reason for that. At the end of the day, the core business is still writing loans, managing people's money and moving money.” Listen as Adams discusses the potential for bank and fintech investments, along with the impact of FedNow on payment data flows and the revenue potential of real-time payments for banks.
