'We're putting the power in the hands of the banker': Jack Henry's CEO David Foss

As we continue to press on the technology throttle, core software providers like Jack Henry are changing, too. The firm recently announced a new technology strategy that would unbundle its software – essentially taking its core-system parts and making them discrete services that can be customized and rebundled alongside other fintech offerings. In our talk with CEO David Foss, he compared core software to a car chassis. Banks and other FIs have been used to buying the whole car – now, Jack Henry wants to provide its clients with options to pick and choose the components they want in their technology stack.
