Financial
Services Technology Consortium (FSTC)
The Financial Services Technology Consortium is a consortium
of leading North-American- based financial institutions,
technology vendors, independent research organizations,
and government agencies. FSTC sponsors collaborative technology
development pilots, proofs-of-concept, tests, and demonstratives
supported by member financial institutions and technology
companies. Its aim is to bring forward interoperable,
open-standard technologies that provide critical infrastructures
for the financial services industry. FSTC members use
these same infrastructures to bring their own products
and services to the marketplace, stimulating customer
interest and earning consumer confidence, and enhancing
the position of financial services institutions in the
marketplace. Verifia’s membership in the FSTC reflects
the company’s commitment to keeping abreast of the
issues pertaining to the financial services market, and
to participating in the industry’s development of
interoperable open-standard technologies in the online
security space.
