Ramp Up Cyber Spending As AI Reshapes Industry Priorities

NEW YORK—Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming the defining force shaping banking strategy, with 80% of banking executives now expecting AI to significantly disrupt their business and operating models within the next three to five years, according to KPMG's 2026 Banking Technology Survey. The survey of 200 U.S. banking executives found institutions are responding by accelerating investments in cybersecurity, payments modernization and technology-driven acquisitions. "AI, payments modernization, cybersecurity, and tech-driven M&A are no longer separate agendas," said Peter Torrente, KPMG's U.S. Banking Sector Leader, who said banks are increasingly being challenged to keep pace across technology, risk and growth simultaneously. Cybersecurity remains a top concern. More than three-quarters (76%) of banking leaders reported an increase in cyberattacks over the past year, while 92% said they are boosting cybersecurity budgets. In addition, 84% are increasing cyb...

White Paper from WOCCU Examines How Stablecoins are Reshaping Financial Infrastructure

WASHINGTON– World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) has released a new white paper that examines how stablecoins are reshaping the financial infrastructure that credit unions and other cooperative financial institutions rely on to serve their members.  According to WOCCU, the white paper, How Digital Money Is Impacting Credit Unions, Part 1: Focus on Stablecoins , is the first in a planned three-part series exploring how emerging forms of digital money are affecting the global credit union movement.  “The report begins by noting that stablecoins are no longer a niche fintech development, but part of a broader structural shift in how money is stored, moved and regulated,” WOCCU explained. “As commercial banks, payment networks, technology firms and retailers build stablecoin offerings or integrate stablecoin rails into their platforms, credit unions must consider how these changes could affect deposits, payments, member relationships and long-term institutional relevance.” For ...

Half of Credit Union & Bank CEOs are Now Older Than 65, Up From 20% Two Decades

NEW YORK — At a time when there are some generational changes in credit union leadership taking place, a new analysis has found the nation’s bank CEOs are getting older, with half of the chief executives leading banks now older than 65, compared with fewer than 20% two decades ago. The KBW Bank Index from Truist Securities found that the median age of bank CEOs has increased by 10 years since the early 2000s, mirroring a broader aging trend among corporate leaders across the United States. However, bank executives remain older on average than their counterparts in many other industries, according to the analysis by Truist Securities Managing Director John McDonald and associates Peter Nicolo and John Manahan. One reason is tenure. Bank CEOs typically remain in their positions longer than executives in many other sectors. According to data from CristKolder Associates cited in the report, financial-services CEOs average nine years in the role, compared with 5.4 years in the energy secto...

What Credit Unions Can—And Can't—Do With New Trump Accounts

07/02/2026 09:36 am         WASHINGTON--With Trump Accounts set to officially launch July 4, America’s Credit Unions updated its frequently asked questions document to clarify the role of credit unions now and in the future. Credit unions do not have a role to play yet, as the Treasury has not announced steps to transition accounts from initial provider BNY Mellon to other authorized institutions, ACU noted. Trump Accounts are tax-deferred accounts that can be established on behalf of a child under the age of 18. Account contributions begin after July 4, with contributions up to $5,000 a year allowed. Created by H.R. 1, the law also established a pilot program to deposit a one-time $1,000 grant into accounts of children born between Jan. 1, 2025 and Dec. 31, 2028. Once the child turns 18, the account funds are available for educational expenses, home ownership, entrepreneurship, and other designated purposes. Once guidance is available from Treasury, credit unions ...

Sunday Reading - We Hold These Truths to Be Self-Evident

We Hold These Truths to Be Self-Evident .  The Declaration of Independence is the founding document that formally announced the American Colonies' break from British rule.

ATMs and the Windows 11 Software Upgrade

ATMs and the Windows 11 Software Upgrade Joe Woods, SVP Marketing & Partnerships Dolphin Debit Access There is a lot of information and misinformation circulating regarding the required Windows 11 software. Windows 10 is sunsetting and therefore Windows 11 is now the new operating system of choice moving forward. Many of us may not realize, however, that there are multiple versions of Windows 10. These different versions have different sunset dates, different options for extended service plans as well as different applications. Your ATM’s will be required to upgrade to Windows 11 at some point in the near future. However, that future could be four months away or forty months away. And if costs are similar to the Windows 10 upgrade, you could be spending $5,000-$14,000 per ATM for the upgrade.   To figure out what is best for you, you need to examine your ATM fleet. Several factors need to be considered for this change from Win10 to Win11. Making a rash decision to per...

NCUA Tells FICUs Crypto Trading is OK — If Big Exchanges Provide the Service

When it comes to reading between the lines of financial regulators’ advisory letters, tone matters. Take last week’s letter from the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) which gave the federally insured credit unions (FICUs) it oversees permission to partner with digital asset providers to allow retail customers to buy, sell and trade in cryptocurrencies. Now compare it to the one issued by Comptroller of the Currency Michael Hsu’s agency to the national banks and federal savings associations it regulates a month earlier. On the surface, both said much the same thing: Financial institutions can provide cryptocurrency services (albeit with some notable differences: the OCC’s letter dealt with more back-end services, including custody services as well as holding and using dollar-pegged stablecoins for transaction settlement). Neither was enthusiastic. The NCUA’s letter said it “does not prohibit FICUs from establishing these relationships” — which is not as enthusiastic as “are a...

Emerging Risks and How to Mitigate Them

5 Emerging Risks and How to Mitigate Them With each technological advance emerges new risk. Think about it: Every technology upgrade, new mobile device and new payment method brings exposure that wasn’t identified previously. The real threat occurs when these risks aren’t anticipated or communicated within your organization. Here are five emerging risks every credit union should have on their radar right now: Social media. Employees posting comments on social media that are inaccurate or appear incomplete or disparaging can threaten your organization’s reputation. Be careful when taking disciplinary action, as the National Labor Relations Board can classify social media activity as “protected concerted activity.” Mistakes here can lead to retaliation, wrongful termination claims and expensive litigation.
