The US Financial Services Technology Consortium (FSTC) has entered a collaborative agreement with Meridien Research aimed at delivering focussed research on financial technology strategies and investments.
The partnership will include interactive forums to promote dialogue between FSTC members and Meridien analysts, and the publication of research on topics of joint interest. Meridien will get access to the business expertise gained through FSTC's efforts and to the project-oriented collaborative research sponsored by the consortium.
FSTC is a not-for-profit research organisation comprised of banks, financial service firms, industry partners, national laboratories, universities and government agencies. Its goal is to bring forward interoperable, open-standard technologies for the financial services industry.
