Financial Institution Consortium

Definition

A financial institution consortium is a collaborative group formed by multiple banks, credit unions, or other financial service providers to pursue a common objective. These groups typically pool resources, expertise, and technology to address industry-wide challenges, develop new standards, or create shared infrastructure. The cooperation allows members to achieve goals that might be too costly or complex for a single institution to undertake independently. Such consortia often focus on innovation, efficiency, or regulatory compliance.
