LAYTON, Utah. – CUProdigy announced it has become a Platinum Partner with the National Association of CUSOs (NACUSO).
The Platinum Partner program is the highest level of support for the trade association, which is based in Newport Beach, Calif.
CUProdigy CEO Anthony Montgomery joined the CUSO in September of 2015.
“The lure was the convergence of leadership, credit unions and technology. Service and cooperation have always been part of who I am,” he said.
“We are thrilled to welcome CUProdigy into the NACUSO family,’ said Jack Antonini, CEO of NACUSO. “The CUProdigy story is a wonderful example of credit unions recognizing and embracing the sixth cooperative principle: cooperation among cooperatives.”
CUProdigy has a long history in credit unions. In 1991, Information Now Incorporated (INI), a core processor for several credit unions, filed for bankruptcy. Instead of surrendering to a new core conversion, these credit unions banded together to buy the software and start their own CUSO. In 2009, CUProdigy set out to rewrite the entire platform in a state-of-the-art, open architecture. Today, CUProdigy credit unions are equipped with the most modern technology available, the CUSO said.
“That spirit of collaboration and having a voice in one’s own technical destiny is still a concept that resonates at CUProdigy,” Montgomery added. “From the beginning, we have practiced teamwork and collective independence.”
