Fintech innovations have strengthened credit unions’ ability to consistently serve their members’ changing needs. Nonetheless, credit unions cannot grow complacent with the current technological landscape. Rather, they should be actively forecasting what disruptive technology shifts are on the horizon. This is a daunting task with a variety of inherent challenges. For example, even if you correctly predict the shift, your credit union could fail to adequately adopt the new technologies.
