The document discusses the disruption of legacy core banking systems by financial technology (fintech) companies. It notes that smaller banks are under pressure from large banks and fintechs. Legacy core suppliers like Fiserv, FIS, and Jack Henry control over 90% of the core processing market but only spend a small portion of free cash flow on innovation, leaving a gap that fintechs are filling. The legacy systems wall off banks from competition by limiting open APIs and charging high fees. The document argues that banks need to develop fintech innovation plans to adopt new technologies and restructure contracts to remove barriers to working with competitive fintech suppliers in order to better compete.
