Credit union core systems power lending, deposits, digital systems, underwriting, account management, and more. They are a central piece of credit union operations, but the one thing a core system can’t power is relationships. No matter which vendor a credit union chooses, the core can’t replace employees with empathy, a culture of caring, and the work credit unions do to improve their communities.
