After a six-month research project that involved the surveying of some 1,600 ATM and financial executives from throughout the world, ATM Marketplace and the ATM Industry Association have announced plans to release the findings of their research next month.
In this five-year ATM and financial industry outlook, titled "ATM Future Trends 2009," ATM Marketplace, an industry Web site dedicated to news and information about the financial-self-service market, and ATMIA have included in-depth analysis of the survey results as well as industry perspectives from nearly 20 revered industry executives. Those industry experts include Debbie Bianucci, the president and chief executive of Chicago-based Banking Administration Institute; Bill Nuti, the president and CEO of NCR Corp., the world's largest ATM manufacturer; Aravinda Korala, the founder and CEO of KAL, one of the world's largest third-party providers of multivendor ATM software; Eckard Heidloff, the president and CEO of Germany-based Wincor Nixdorf AG; and many more.
The 120-page report offers statistics and graphs that highlight growth and financial-services trends in developing and developed markets covering the next five years.
The report also includes a section dedicated to the use of cash today and into the future. Based on the findings of ATMIA CEO Mike Lee, this cash-specific survey offers a one-of-a-kind look at cash from a futurist's perspective. ATM Marketplace and ATMIA launched a white paper in the fall that highlights some of the overarching themes of the cash survey, but only the full Future Trends report contains the survey's full findings.
Tom Harper, the publisher of ATM Marketplace, said the report is one of the most in-depth ATM future-trends studies to hit the market.
As a bonus, ATM Marketplace has included with each purchase of the Future Trends report a copy of the Future Trends presentation it hosted during the annual ATMIA U.S. conference in February. The video presentation includes a panel discussion with executives from BAI, KAL and Wincor Nixdorf and is moderated by ATM Marketplace editor Tracy Kitten.
