Beware the shiny tech objects.
On the show today is Tennessee Credit Union League’s CRO David Griffiths who says a huge problem many of the league’s credit unions wrestle with is fragmented technology adoption – how do the many tech pieces work together? Or more bluntly: can they work together at all?
Old cores are a real problem for many Tennessee credit unions. So is the cost of middleware.
Griffiths tells about solutions that are working in his state, with both big credit unions and also the many credit unions with assets under $500 million in his state.
He specifically discusses solutions the league is spearheading – it’s good stuff that helps demonstrate there remains a place for credit union leagues, at least the ones that cann talk tech.
Also on the show is Saahil Kamath, head of AI at Eltropy – which has been busy adding to its tool kit for credit unions and insurinng the tools work together. Note that he had indicated he was under the weather and probably would only listen. But he winds up talking at some length and he offers thoughtful insights into what is really working as credit unions seek to get their tech tools talking with each other ,
