TAS Group, a global provider of innovative solutions in card management systems, financial messaging and capital markets, announced they have ranked in the Top 100 on the 2017 IDC FinTech Rankings for the ninth consecutive year. The most comprehensive vendor ranking within the financial services industry, the annual IDC FinTech Rankings is based on 2016 calendar year revenues attributed to financial institutions.

Being recognized among the top Fintech players at global level is a stimulus to do better year after year, leveraging our history and business domain expertise while evolving our technological capabilities at the speed that is required in this new instant world.”
Already a leader in the Italian market and an integral provider of fintech solutions to commercial banks and central institutions throughout Europe and America, TAS Group has renewed their governance during 2016 winning the trust of the market that led the stock to be among the Milan Stock Exchange top-tier gainers at the end of 2016 with a performance of +785% increase in price between August 2016 and July 2017. Increased presence abroad through strategic and tactical partnerships and expansion of the offer, particularly with addition of a new Digital Software Factory, are among the main drivers of expansion in the strategy of TAS Group under the new Owl Company leadership. Innovative and modular fintech frameworks, adaptable to the needs of customers and partners and ready to manage disruptive financial regulations and business models such as MiFID II, PSD2 and instant payments, are among TAS latest achievements.
