CGI Joins Banking Industry Architecture Network

CGI Group, Inc. (Montreal) has joined Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN), (Frankfurt), a not-for-profit association focused on the standardization and promotion of banking specific IT services among its members.

To achieve this, BIAN seeks to accelerate the adoption of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) in the banking industry, fostering easier and more cost effective integration of SOA for financial institutions.
