What Fidelity National Information Services does

US financial technology company providing core banking, payments processing and capital markets software to banks and financial firms.

Runs banks' core systems as an outsourced service, billing by accounts and transactions under multi-year contracts, so revenue recurs and switching takes years. It sold a majority of Worldpay to GTCR in 2024, then agreed in 2025 to sell its remaining stake to Global Payments and buy Global Payments' issuer-processing business.

What could go right

Moat: wide (switching costs, installed base, regulatory licence). Core banking systems run banks' critical infrastructure; switching providers takes years and is high-risk.
