Currently the 16th largest commercial bank holding company in the US, it has always strived to deliver the best customer service for the most up-to-date range of products and relies on Misys to support it in delivering on these goals with respect to its Foreign Exchange business.

Bradley Shairson, SVP and Head of FX and Derivatives at Union Bank comments: “We have been working with Misys for over a decade now and have been impressed by not only the enhancements that result from the new Opics Plus solution, but with the Misys team that provided strong, dedicated support during the upgrade process. We are very pleased that we made the decision to upgrade to Opics Plus v3.0. We are confident that this newest version will help us to deliver even more efficient services to customers.”
