Within the financial services industry, the need to support legacy, the urge to bring new functionality to the market quickly, and the need to save money through commoditisation of sophisticated technology has led to extremely complicated distributed computer systems that are hard to maintain, hard to diagnose in case of failure, under-performing, expensive to manage, and a general inhibitor to growth.


The use of well-understood IT theory combined with deep understanding of the business needs leads to better solutions, allowing FIs to deal with this complexity.
