Harland Financial Solutions, Mortgagebot and Compushare Rebranded to D+H
TORONTO, Jan. 28, 2014 /CNW/ - Davis + Henderson Corporation (TSX:DH)
today announced it is now operating as a single brand in North America
and globally, and has rebranded its legacy Harland Financial Solutions,
Mortgagebot and Compushare brands to D+H. Leading technology products
and solutions from these brands are now operating under the D+H brand,
but will continue to use their existing product names. The move is
aligned with D+H's long-term plan outlined in August 2013, following
its acquisition of Harland Financial Solutions, and is the next step in
D+H's continuing evolution as a financial technology leader.
The rebranding reflects a broader integration already underway within
D+H, following a series of acquisitions, and will allow the company to
better support and partner with clients across the U.S., Canada and
around the world. D+H plans to take a phased approach to rebranding
over the next eight months to ensure a smooth transition. The first
phase is focused on the U.S. and will ensure all U.S. businesses
operate as D+H. As an initial step, the company has introduced new
branding visuals and launched a new website - www.dh.com - which displays all product and service offerings delivered by the
U.S. organization.
"Officially extending our entire offering into the U.S. under one brand
is proof of our long-term commitment to serving banks, credit unions
and other financial institutions. At D+H, we have always put our
clients at the centre of everything we do which has enabled us to
create long-standing and trusted partnerships. Our expertise has
allowed us to think ahead of the curve and bring clients innovations
that are relevant and valuable to their businesses," said Gerrard
Schmid, CEO of D+H. "We are very proud to have reached this major
milestone and attribute much of our continued success to the tremendous
efforts of our employees worldwide, to our shared passion for financial
technology, and to the compatible cultures and values across all of our
businesses."
"By moving to a unified brand, we are better able to communicate and
give meaning to D+H's value and highlight our strengths and
differentiators to the market," said Carrie Russell, Chief Marketing
Officer, D+H. "As we continue to grow our operations, it is critical
that clients, employees and the industry understand who D+H is, what we
offer, how we work and partner with financial institutions and their
connection to our company. The connection is clearer and simpler to
understand when we work as a unified brand, and this approach will
bring greater benefits to our clients."
D+H anticipates the rebranding will be a strategic enabler that will
allow it to unlock synergies and create tangible benefits for its
business and its clients. Unifying its operations under a single brand
will bring new benefits to D+H clients centered on easier access to
more products and more options to solve their important business
challenges with financial technology. D+H offers a leading suite of
lending, core banking, channel and payment solutions that empower over
6,000 banks and credit unions in North America and around the world,
including 50 per cent of the top financial institutions in the U.S.
Consolidating all products under one brand will streamline the client
experience and simplify how clients work with the company.
