JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 28, 2020--Financial technology leader FIS(r) (NYSE:FIS) today announced that it has been selected by the National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation (CFC) to help the organization consolidate its loan origination and management platform to better serve its members in the utilities industry.

CFC is a nonprofit, member-owned organization that provides financing to electric cooperatives that serve more than half of the land mass of the United States. CFC was looking to integrate and enhance its loan origination and management systems and selected the FIS Commercial Lending Suite.

CFC will consolidate its lending platforms onto the FIS leading-edge Commercial Loan Origination and Commercial Loan Servicing (ACBS) solution for an end-to-end transformation of their lending platform.

"CFC looks forward to working with FIS to help better serve our members," said Graceann Clendenen, Senior Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer at CFC.

"Our Commercial Lending solution is a modern front-to-back-office solution that was designed to help our clients in growing their business through efficient technology platforms taking advantage of digitalization for customer interaction," said Nasser Khodri, Head of Sell-side, Capital Markets at FIS.
