An area of strategic investment and growth, FIS expanded its capabilities last year through the acquisition of Reliance Trust, fulfilling market demand for a full-service trust operations BPO solution and presenting the most flexible outsourcing solution set in the trust and wealth management industry.

That deep domain expertise plus complete back-office support led Argent Financial Group, one of the nation’s largest independent trust providers, to select FIS for Trust Operations Outsourcing - including custody and mutual fund clearing services - and FIS’ premium investment suite, PortfolioMARC™.

“The greater efficiencies achieved through technology and outsourcing will allow Argent to further focus on the needs of its clients, while delivering on its fiduciary responsibilities,” said Anthony Jabbour, CEVP, Integrated Financial Solutions, FIS. “FIS remains committed to innovation that supports industry demand and reinvents the way firms support their customers.”

“Everything we do starts with the needs of our clients,” said Kyle McDonald, CEO, Argent Financial Group. “FIS’ technology, plus its top-level BPO support, gives us the opportunity to attend to the individual needs of our clients without worrying about back office management.”
