Playbook: How FinServ CTOs
de-risk modernization fast

You need to modernize—but you can't risk breaking what works

Your legacy systems put you in an impossible situation. They're too expensive to maintain, but too critical to risk changing.

While competitors ship AI-powered features, you're stuck spending most of your budget just keeping the lights on.

There's a safer way to modernize than ripping and replacing everything.

This playbook gives you a path to ship modern features in weeks while gradually modernizing underneath:

• 20–30% reduction in maintenance costs in year one to free up budget for AI and innovation
• Deploy features in days through modern API layers instead of weeks for simple changes
• Enterprise-grade security with continuous monitoring and AI-powered threat detection
• Data unlocked and unified for AI/ML training instead of trapped in siloed systems
• Real-time payments, 24/7/365 instead of batch processing during business hours
• Compliance automation that adapts to regulatory changes instead of manual processes lagging behind
• Documented system knowledge that reduces dependency on tribal knowledge—working systems your team can run without consultants
