How FNBO Is Driving Innovation Through Strategic Partnerships

In a recent interview with PYMNTS.com, Tammy Trilli, Senior Vice President of FNBO’s Commercial Payments Organization, discussed how FNBO, a 167-year-old privately owned bank, has embraced digital transformation through strategic partnerships and technological innovation.

Trilli emphasized the importance of collaborating with third parties to deliver exceptional customer experiences, even anticipating needs customers may not yet recognize. She highlighted that many of FNBO's current operations have evolved from such partnerships, underscoring the bank’s commitment to meeting customer expectations.

While acknowledging the allure of emerging technologies like APIs and AI, Trilli cautioned against pursuing innovations solely for their novelty. Instead, FNBO focuses on solutions that genuinely address customer needs, such as supporting the agricultural sector with tailored financial services.

Trilli also noted that successful partnerships require alignment on key performance indicators to ensure both parties achieve their objectives in the payments journey.

FNBO's dedication to combining traditional banking values with modern technology reflects its mission to provide personalized, secure and innovative financial solutions.
