Keith Bergelt, CEO of the OIN, says: "Advancements in financial services and fintech increasingly rely on open source technologies. We are pleased that The Clearing House is committed to patent non-aggression in core Linux and adjacent open source technologies.”
Sean Reilly, senior vice president and associate general counsel at TCH, adds: "We remain focused on integrating the best technologies in our payment networks, which help to deliver services that our banks’ customers value and trust. We enable all financial institutions to offer safer, faster, and smarter digital transaction services, and open source is a significant innovation driver in these offerings.”
