Recognizing the Best in Bank Technology

Each year, Bank Systems & Technology honors the most innovative CIOs with our Elite 8 awards.

Being a bank CIO today is perhaps more difficult than ever before. Increasingly, the technology side of things is becoming more integrated into the overall business; IT is no longer just a shop that sits "over there" and fills orders.

Today's bank CIO is more fully involved in the overall direction of the business. In addition to solving technology problems, CIOs are integral in developing new products and services. In fact, some say the roles of CIO and CMO are blending, or at least becoming more aligned.

The bank CIO also has to help his or her organization deal with an increasing regulatory burden, while at the same time figuring out how to drive innovation to meet consumer demand and changing behavior. And un-layering years of legacy systems and infrastructure to reduce costs and drive efficiencies is a critical job component as well.

Each year, Bank Systems & Technology honors the most innovative and successful bank CIOs and line of business heads in our Elite 8 awards. If a technology executive in your organization, or a client you work with, is doing industry-leading work, we want to know about it.
