New report helps financial institutions navigate the vexing problem of updating legacy core banking systems while providing seamless, always-on payment experiences consumers demand

ATLANTA: Matera announced today the availability of its newest whitepaper, written by Javelin Strategy & Research, titled “Modernizing Payments: The Digital Twin Approach.”

This free report from Matera and Javelin focuses on a novel approach to helping financial institutions navigate the challenges of updating outdated, legacy core banking systems while at the same time providing seamless, always-on payment experiences that their customers increasingly demand.

Consumers now see payments through the same lens they evaluate their favorite social media apps. However, legacy technology hinders the ability of financial institutions to provide a modern experience. The paper details a promising solution – the digital twin approach to payments. It offers banks the opportunity to satisfy user demands immediately without replacing aging core banking platforms and puts those financial institutions on a path towards modernizing their critical systems.

“The technological challenges facing the financial services market are daunting, and innovative ideas are needed to solve them. Reimagining bank balances through digital twins is one such way, one that offers a real solution to the challenges faced by financial institutions as they deal with the shift in customer expectations toward faster, secure, always-available payment systems,” said James Wester, Co-Head of Payments at Javelin Strategy & Research and author of the report.

The digital twin approach presents several immediate benefits for financial institutions that face the challenge of providing a better payment experience for their customers. By creating digital twins of the accounts stored on a core banking platform, financial institutions can effectively have the best of their old core system—the reliability and scalability that banks have come to rely on—and the ability to connect accounts to modern, open payment systems that provide their customers with better experiences.

This whitepaper examines the digital twin approach in detail, how it can facilitate real-time functionality, instant payment operations and more, as well as practical steps financial institutions can take to begin their core modernization journey.
