Most FIs are building alerts capabilities in-house, and will use vendor solutions as the complexity of offerings occurs--likely with the integration of prohibitions and review and release capabilities. Because lack of consumer demand does not warrant FIs developing this functionality, Javelin foresees heightened future demand for Interactive Financial MessagingTM functionality in technology platforms that no vendors currently offer.
