Financial Services in New Zealand / Auckland-Wellington
New Zealand / Auckland-Wellington banks locked into FIS, Fiserv, or Temenos where core system data is in proprietary formats, the AU Privacy Act and APPs compliance certifications are platform-specific, and the renegotiation position weakens every year. The exit path exists. It requires a team that has executed it.
The Big Three core banking vendors — FIS, Fiserv, Jack Henry — are so universally disliked that banking trade associations are funding alternatives. Long-term contracts, outdated technology, closed systems, and prices that make modernization feel impossible. The industry is ready for engineering teams that build open, compliant alternatives.
