Carreker CEO to Discuss Offshore
Payments Processing at The 2005 Outsourcing
World Summit
DALLAS and SAN
DIEGO, (January 27,
2005) Carreker Corporation (Nasdaq:
CANI), a leading provider of technology
and consulting solutions for the financial
industry, and Michael F. Corbett & Associates,
a research and training firm dedicated
to advancing outsourcing as a powerful
management discipline, today announced
that Carreker chairman and CEO, J.
D. (Denny) Carreker, will be a featured
speaker at The 2005 Outsourcing World
Summit, February 22, 2005 in San Diego,
CA. Carreker will discuss the future
of the financial services industry
and the role outsourcing is playing
in building that future.
The session, entitled "Offshoring
Payments Processing: How Electronification
and Globalization Are Transforming
the Payments Business" explores how
powerful trends in payments processing
are converging to create a powerful
business case for banks to offshore
a growing number of back-office payments
processes.
Mr. Carreker, founder of the bank
consulting/technology firm that serves
the leading banks around the world,
will describe:
how Check 21, image processing and
other drivers of payment electronification
are compelling banks to reduce their
paper processing costs and simultaneously
breaking down geographical constraints;
the key components of the business
cases for offshoring individual back-office
functions;
and how banks are increasingly taking
advantage of globalization's advantages
to optimize their payments business.
Carreker said, "With dramatically
declining check volumes and increased
per-item processing costs, financial
institutions are being forced to reevaluate
their payments operations. Business
process outsourcing offers increased
efficiencies and immediate cost savings
in a truly global environment."
Carreker Corporation and Mastek Limited,
a leading global outsourcing company,
are joint owners of Carretek LLC, a
transformational business processing
outsourcer for transaction processing.
"The Outsourcing World Summit
has long been at the forefront of the
field. Denny's insights into how outsourcing
can help address the changes taking
place in the banking industry will
be particularly relevant and valuable,"
comments Mike Corbett, Chairman of
The Outsourcing World Summit.
