Cary Parker, executive vice president of information services at Arvest, said, "We like Lodo's technology and the way their vision aligns with ours in terms of where online banking is headed. Online PFM features can help consumers get a better understanding of where their money is, where they're spending, and what they can do to improve their financial health. More effectively completing this financial picture, we believe, will bring significant value to our customers and strengthen our relationships."
