Bank Tech Companies - who will be left standing?

September 29, 2009

Analysis by:Howard Bruck, Chief Information Officer,

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

7,000 US banks and credit unions represents a lot of customers for the banking technology companies. While banks may be hurting, their technology needs only increases. With so many recent mergers are there too few providers left? Who has the advantage banks or the providers?

JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending

September 26, 2009

Analysis by:Mark Mariotti, Chief Executive Officer,

Analysis of:How to Stop a Credit Card Payment Increase | www.mainstreet.com

During the last major financial meltdown or depression, JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending by laying down the gauntlet to his peers, single handedly stimulated the economy. He knew that the severe times dictated new and severe lending techniques. I believe there is going to be an even LARGER backlash to Chase and American Express and other credit card lending institutions, that continue in the business of credit card lending, and continue alienating the high FICO borrowers.

Dell/Perot, HP/EDS what's the difference?

September 21, 2009

Analysis by:Howard Bruck, Chief Information Officer,

Analysis of:Dell to buy Perot Systems for $3.9 billion | money.cnn.com

Dell, buying into the notion that hardware is now a commodity and they have already optimized that business, believes they need to diversify. So they buy a large business/technology consulting firm. Do they now bring any more value to the Perot business?
