Financial Services & Insurance
The Signature Group has a long and highly regarded reputation for our support to banks, credit unions, insurance companies and other financial institutions. We have implemented solutions which enhanced customer service, consolidate internal operations, improve efficiency, increase security and reduced operating cost. Both front office and back office operations have special needs and require systems that respond to those needs – from customer-facing and transaction processing systems, to secure IP communications, enterprise messaging systems, directory services, security solutions, highly redundant local and wide area network design and implementation and contact/call centers.
TSG also has extensive experience in supporting mergers and acquisitions by financial institutions. We have orchestrated the technology, and technology process and business aspects of over twenty mergers including ten of the world’s largest financial institutions. Our unique experience with mergers and acquisitions of large financial institutions sets us apart from other consulting firms. TSG supports these mergers by providing pre-merger due diligence, IT merger cost assessments and risk analysis. Our post merger experience includes the architecture, design, implementation, support, and operation of the consolidated entities. Our consulting teams provide business consulting on departmental consolidation, technology standardization, third part vendor negotiation, and the development and adoption of best practices and technology processes and controls.
Today’s enterprise-class networks demand efficiency and availability on all scales. The Signature Group network architects and business consultants have years of experience operating within these environments. TSG can not only develop these enterprise architectures, but can analyze the current environment and perform the technical and financial analyses to determine the viability of potential solutions and service offerings.
The Signature Group helps many financial institutions tackle these challenges and remain compliant within today’s complex regulatory environment. The Signature Group provides security assessments and audits, penetration and venerability testing, OCC and FDIC audits to ensure that compliance and regulatory requirements are met.
