TietoEVRY secures podium position in ISG’s Nordic banking ecosystem study

17 December 2020

TietoEVRY has been positioned as a ‘Nordic Leader in the Banking Industry Ecosystem’ in ISG Provider Lens™ study 2020. According to the new report by the Information Services Group (ISG), there is significant interest among Nordic banks in new technologies to improve the customer experience, as the region aims to become the world’s first cashless society.

According to the ISG Provider Lens™ Banking Industry Ecosystem report, Nordic banks are looking to technology service providers that can help them manage and consolidate multiple core IT systems in a cost-effective manner.

“Untangling these legacy spaghetti systems will be a significant challenge for several large banks in the Nordics,” said Jan Erik Aase, director and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “This creates significant opportunities for technology service providers that understand the local market and can consolidate multiple banking platforms efficiently and quickly.”

“TietoEVRY’s extensive IT service experience combined with deep financial expertise and strong local capabilities have helped establish their leadership in the Nordic market driving mindshare and growth from customers across the banking ecosystem,” says Gowtham Kumar, Lead Analyst, UK and Nordic Region at ISG.

The report also sees significant interest among Nordic banks in new technologies that improve the customer experience, as the region aims to become the world’s first cashless society. Customer experience has become a top priority for many banks, as switching costs for customers plummet, millennial buying power soars and non-traditional banking alternatives proliferate.

“We are very proud that our software and services capabilities have been recognized by ISG. This confirms our position as the leading partner for software-driven transformation in the Nordic financial industry. As we head into a new year, we will continue to help our customers exploit the possibilities generated from open, modular and scalable banking solutions and eco-systems, and also take their customer experience to the next level,” says Christian Segersven, Head of Financial Services Solutions, TietoEVRY.

The report also finds a strong growth in contactless payments in the Nordics this year, driven by the Covid-19 pandemic. As they update their systems, many Nordic banks prefer local service providers that understand regional market dynamics and cultural changes.

In addition, P27, an initiative that aims to break down barriers for trade and financial interaction between the Nordic countries, has prompted several banks in the region to build or enable their payment systems to accommodate the P27 roadmap, the report says. Modular solutions and accelerators are becoming common at banks to reduce the time and effort of updating their systems.

The 2020 ISG Provider Lens™ Banking Industry Ecosystem Report for the Nordics evaluates the capabilities of 21 providers across four quadrants.

TietoEVRY is the only provider named as a leader in all four quadrants.

According to the report, “TietoEVRY has a strong set of software and services capabilities combined with Nordic-based talents to help retail and corporate banking customers transform and manage their core banking operations.” The report also mentions that the company “has a mature framework to deliver the operational and commercial benefits of banking-as-a-service to Nordics clients.”

In addition, TietoEVRY is recognized for having “a PSD2-compliant open banking platform that combines API aggregation with a developer portal.” Within the payment ecosystem services area, TietoEVRY is referred to as “a trusted market leader, showcasing extensive experience, referrals, capabilities and solution offerings in the Nordics.”
