The Challenge

Why Financial Services Integration is Uniquely Challenging

Financial services firms operate in one of the most complex technology environments. Legacy core systems, custodian platforms, portfolio management tools, compliance systems, and CRM must all work together—but they weren't designed to integrate.

Common Pain Points:

  • Legacy Systems: Core banking and policy administration systems built decades ago with no modern APIs
  • Data Silos: Client information trapped in disconnected systems
  • Manual Processes: Staff manually copying data between systems
  • Real-Time Requirements: Advisors and bankers need current data, not batch updates
  • Security & Compliance: Integrations must maintain data security and regulatory compliance
  • Vendor Lock-In: Proprietary integration tools create dependency on specific vendors
