Brookfield, Wis. –Â Fiserv, Inc.

The $650 million asset credit union will use DNA and its integrated Fiserv solutions to better serve the employees, agents and retirees associated with Farmers Insurance, and other employee organizations throughout the country.
A member-focused credit union that has been in business for nearly 80 years, FIGFCU was looking for an account processing platform to support the growing use of digital channels among its 45,000-plus members. The platform also had to meet the commercial needs of the insurance agents that FIGFCU serves. After a thorough review of the industry's leading vendors, FIGFCU selected Fiserv.
"We wanted a company and a technology platform that could support our credit union for the next 15 to 20 years and that's what we found in Fiserv and DNA," said Yusef Mustafa, Chief Technology Officer of FIGFCU. "DNA and its integrated solutions from Fiserv will allow us to bring consistency to all of our digital channels to serve the needs of our geographically dispersed membership. At the same time, the commercial capabilities within DNA will help us deliver important business services to the agencies we serve, while its flexible reporting capabilities will give us improved visibility into our membership and our business."
FIGFCU selected DNA for its innovative technology, open architecture and strong family of integrated solutions - features that will give the credit union the flexibility to stay current with the evolving needs of its members and with changing industry trends.
Recognized by industry-leading analysts for its technology, user experience and breadth of functionality, DNA from Fiserv is the first open, relationship-centered core banking platform built for global collaboration.
