12/17/2008
MILWAUKEE, Dec. 17, 2008 ─ Metavante (NYSE:MV), a leading
provider of banking and payments technology, today announced that M&I
Marshall & Ilsley Bank (M&I Bank) is standardizing its receivables
services on RemitEnterprise, Metavante’s advanced retail and wholesale
receivables management platform that enables processors to deliver images and
robust transaction data to their treasury management clients.
To continue to grow the value of its treasury management service offerings,
M&I Bank decided to upgrade and expand its receivables processing services
at its seven processing sites. M&I Bank sought a new lockbox platform that
offered the latest technology in payment acceptance and image processing.
After a thorough competitive evaluation, M&I Bank selected Metavante and
its RemitEnterprise platform. RemitEnterprise provides a suite of image-based,
client-server products for capturing wholesale, retail and scannable lockbox
remittance information.
“We are committed to providing premier treasury management solutions, and in
keeping with that commitment, we chose Metavante to enhance our receivables
infrastructure and provide our clients with rich image functionality,” said
Andrea Hatcher, vice president, product team leader, M&I Treasury
Management. “Our investment in the Metavante solution provides new technologies
to integrate emerging payments solutions and to serve our growing treasury
management client base.”
RemitEnterprise will support M&I Bank’s expanding processing needs across
its multi-site footprint, allowing the bank to capture payments in a variety of
formats with minimal operator key entry and sets the stage for the bank to
consolidate paper-based transactions with electronic payments such as Electronic
Data Interchange (EDI), credit card, wire, Automated Clearing House (ACH) and
check image exchange.
“As banks continue to operate in a complex environment driven by blended
paper and electronic payments, Metavante RemitEnterprise provides a complete
image-enabled lockbox and receivables solution — positioning M&I Bank with a
competitive advantage over its competitors,” said Paul Danola, division
president, Metavante Image Solutions.
Metavante Image Solutions provides comprehensive solutions that help banks
and businesses transition from paper to electronic payments and image
processing. Solutions that can be delivered in-house or outsourced include image
exchange, distributed capture, check and remittance processing, fraud detection,
and document and report management. Customers encompass banks and corporations
of all sizes worldwide, from de novo banks to the largest financial institutions
and corporations.
Editors Note: RemitEnterprise is the new Metavante product name for the VICOR
RIDS receivables processing solution that is deployed and operated by a number
of the largest financial institutions in the United States.
