Brookfield, Wis., August 11, 2009 - Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), the leading global provider of financial services technology solutions, today announced that in just over two years, Banco Ahorro Famsa has seamlessly executed on their branch expansion plans using Signature from Fiserv to help grow their bank. An extension of the Mexican-based, household goods retailer Famsa, the bank now has nearly 300 branches throughout Mexico. Banco Ahorro Famsa opened its first branch in a Famsa store in 2007 and has been using the Signature platform since opening.

By leveraging Signature to create a complete, unique customer experience that provides consumer goods and banking services under one roof, the bank's growth is further evidence of the Fiserv processing platform's scalability and ease of implementation for global financial institutions. The system's integration capabilities allow for best-in-class customer relationship management which was a key differentiator for Banco Ahorro Famsa.

"We chose Fiserv because it was apparent that the Signature solution could meet the demands of our rapid expansion plans and our customer service business model," said Daniel Torres, director of IT, Banco Ahorro Famsa. "Signature from Fiserv is a very powerful solution, and its excellent architecture provided the stability we needed to implement the number of branches we have in a short period of time. This rapid expansion is particularly impressive, as each implementation process included the physical creation of each branch within the store, the full installation of equipment and the training of personnel."

Banco Ahorro Famsa's objective is to generate incremental sales growth by adapting traditional financial services to meet the specific needs of its customers. To do this, the bank is encouraging the use of banking services within a segment of the population with low banking penetration. To help meet this objective, a wide range of products including savings and checking accounts, as well as consumer, personal and commercial loans and credit and debit cards are offered.

"Signature provides us with the flexibility we need to respond quickly to the market while simultaneously providing the level of service our customer demands," said Torres.

"With Fiserv as a partner, Banco Ahorro Famsa has made tremendous progress toward meeting their business objectives in a very short period of time," said Tony Catalfano, division president, Bank Solutions, Fiserv. "The speed and ease of this large-scale implementation reinforces why Signature is an industry-leading, global solution for large financial institutions and those seeking to expand into new markets."
