core banking
and digital solution from FIS to serve the changing
needs of its customers and support its future growth.

The oldest and largest full-service bank in Hawaii with more than $20
billion in assets, First Hawaiian Bank is in the midst of a major
enterprise-wide effort focused on delivering a customer-centric
experience that inspires loyalty and enhances the capabilities of their
retail branch network. The new core banking platform provides the bank
with advanced digital capabilities for seamless customer experience,
rich data analytics for informed decision-making, and the ability to
easily integrate with third-party applications.

With its new IBS core banking system from FIS, First Hawaiian and its
customers will benefit from the rich digital functionality of the FIS
Digital One
omni-channel platform. Recently named by IDC Insights as
a leader in North

delivers seamless, cross-channel digital services on a single integrated
platform, Digital United.

As part of its new solution, First Hawaiian will also benefit from
access to a rich, constantly evolving repository of open application
programming interfaces and third-party applications via the FIS
Code Connect
online gateway. Code Connect was recognized by Aite
Group as the “Most
Advanced API Strategy
” in a recent core banking report.

deliver an enhanced customer experience, while remaining flexible to the
evolving needs of the market,” said Derek Baughman, executive vice
president and chief information officer, First Hawaiian Bank. “First
