CSI, a leading provider of end-to-end financial software and technology, today announced that CSI NuPoint®, the company’s flagship core banking platform, has been named the Best Core Banking System at the 2026 Banking Tech Awards USA.
The recognition underscores CSI’s momentum as a financial technology provider and its continued investment in technology that helps community financial institutions modernize with confidence. As community banks navigate rising customer expectations and increased competition from larger banks and fintechs, CSI continues to expand its capabilities to help institutions innovate, operate more efficiently, and deliver the account holder experiences that drive lasting growth.
NuPoint’s growing adoption has solidified its position as one of the nation’s leading core banking platforms. In December 2025, independent market intelligence firm FedFis ranked NuPoint as the second-most-used core banking platform in the U.S., supporting 10.1% of all U.S. banks. NuPoint customers range in size from de novo institutions to banks with more than $20 billion in assets. Today, more than 3,000 organizations rely on CSI technology to modernize operations, accelerate innovation, and deliver differentiated customer experiences.
“This recognition reflects the momentum we’re building and the investments we’re making in the future of community banking,” said Nancy Langer, president and CEO of CSI. “Looking ahead, we will continue investing in a modern, open core platform and the partnership community banks deserve. We’re grateful for the trust our customers place in us and the opportunity to support their growth and success.”
CSI was recognized for NuPoint’s flexible architecture, which supports integrated capabilities across core processing, digital banking, lending, and payments while enabling banks to connect with the broader fintech ecosystem through a robust API framework. Following its 2025 acquisition of Apiture, CSI has enhanced its digital banking capabilities, offering a premium solution that is fully integrated with NuPoint or available as a standalone, core-agnostic platform.
