A regional community bank focused on the financial needs of local businesses and professional services firms, Hudson Valley Bank has experienced significant growth over the past few years. The bank sought a technology upgrade to help increase overall efficiency, develop sustainable process improvements and manage growth.

"In this digital age, our customers expect us to offer the latest technology and delivery systems to help them grow their businesses. We are a much larger bank than we were just five years ago, and we need integrated systems that operate efficiently and cost-effectively to successfully compete in our marketplace," said James J. Landy, President and Chief Executive Officer, Hudson Valley Bank. "Upgrading our core and ancillary systems with Fiserv will position Hudson Valley at the forefront of new technology, as we offer our customers cutting edge products and the exceptional service they have come to expect from us. The focus of these investments is to enable us to better serve our customers, meet their current and future needs and position the bank for continued growth and success."

Fiserv provides a complete commercial banking solution to help Hudson Valley Bank and other organizations like it to maximize their assets, provide greater insight into their customer base and increase sales while managing risk and fraud.

"To help us provide compelling products and services, it was vital that we find the right technology partner," said Howard Bruck, Chief Information Officer, Hudson Valley Bank. "We chose Fiserv after a thoughtful and detailed selection process involving representatives from all areas of the bank. We are confident that we made the right choice of product and partner."
