Fiserv, Inc.

Fiserv, Inc. is a global leader in financial technology and payments, headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The company's core business revolves around enabling financial transactions and information movement for a diverse client base. Its mission is to deliver superior value to clients through leading technology, targeted innovation, and operational excellence, with an aspiration to move money and information in a way that moves the world.

Fiserv offers a comprehensive suite of products and services, including account processing and digital banking solutions, card issuer processing and network services, payments, e-commerce, and merchant acquiring. Key offerings include the Clover point-of-sale platform for small businesses, Carat for large enterprise payments, and various core banking systems and digital banking tools. The company serves financial institutions (banks, credit unions), merchants of all sizes, fintechs, and the public sector across more than 100 countries.

Recent leadership changes saw Mike Lyons appointed President and CEO in May 2025, with Gordon Nixon becoming Chairman in January 2026. In October 2025, Fiserv's stock experienced a significant decline following lower-than-expected third-quarter earnings and a reduced forecast, attributed partly to customer complaints regarding Clover platform fees. This led to a strategic reset and leadership adjustments. Despite these challenges, Fiserv reported a 1% increase in GAAP revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 and continues to expand its portfolio through strategic acquisitions, such as StoneCastle Cash Management in December 2025. The company maintains its position as a Fortune 500 company and a recognized leader in the fintech industry.
