ATMIA: Sponsoring FIs and ATM ISOs in a fragile economy

During the ATM Industry Association's annual North American conference in Miami, which ran Feb. 17-19, ATMIA hosted a panel discussion that touched on a number of issues affecting the ATM industry today. Among the issues discussed was the relationship between independent ATM deployers (ISOs) and the financial institutions that sponsor them.
