Bank Technology Providers Consolidation: Of Course This Will Continue

September 4, 2007

Mergers: Conflicts Becoming A Core Reality | www.banktechnews.com

The big will continue to get bigger; there is very little doubt about that trend continuing. The question will be who does it better? Financial institutions prefer to buy technology from large established providers. The SOX requirements to demonstrate a significant effort on vendor management drives these financial services firms to reduce the number of providers they do business with. Two questions arise from this trend. Firstly, who will be the winners that make smart acquisitions, integrate the products, realize cost savings, and gain overall market dominance? Secondly, who will be acquired, and at what premium over current market value?

NJ Teen Unlocks IPhone From AT&T Network | enews.earthlink.net

George Hotz of Glen Rock, N.J., spent his last summer before college figuring out how to "unlock" the iPhone, freeing it from being restricted to a single carrier, AT&T Inc. The procedure, which the 17-year-old laid out on his blog, raises the possibility of a cottage industry springing up to buy iPhones, unlocking them and then selling them to people who don't want AT&T service or can't get it, particularly overseas. AT&T Inc. spokesman Mark Siegel and Apple spokeswoman Jennifer Bowcock said their companies had no comment. Hotz said the companies had not been in touch with him.
