Banyan Software Announces the Acquisition of Automated Systems, Inc. (ASI) and the Formation of the Financial Institutions Group

Banyan Software, a leading acquirer and permanent home for great software businesses, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Automated Systems, Inc. (ASI). Founded in 1981 and headquartered in Lincoln, NE, ASI provides a comprehensive suite of solutions for community banks. 

ASI offers a mission-critical platform that manages essential banking functions through a single system. The Insite Core Banking system, ASI’s flagship product, acts as the core system of record, connecting over a dozen additional modules, including teller management, digital banking, and mobile app solutions. ASI also provides outsourced back-office processing and hosting services for its software and clients’ IT infrastructure.

With an existing strong footprint in banking-related software businesses, Banyan is also announcing the formation of the Financial Institutions Group (“FIG”). ASI will be joined by Loan Vision as the initial members of the FIG, which will be led by Paul J. Loftus, CEO of Loan Vision. This alignment is designed to foster collaboration among the businesses in the group while they continue to operate independently. Mr. Loftus will be taking over as CEO of ASI, while long-standing ASI executives Todd Rolfes and Tim Schmidt will continue as CTO and COO, respectively.

In recent years, we’ve witnessed large FinTechs acquiring community banking solutions, only to sunset them, drastically raise prices, and force migrations. With ASI, we see an opportunity to strengthen and build long-term relationships in this market, leveraging the trust ASI has earned over the years. Paul’s experience in growing software businesses and his deep understanding of community banking position us to fully deliver on that opportunity.
