Founded in 1981, WFG is an innovator in the billing and analysis of treasury service fees. The Chicago-area company is the primary author of the 822 & BSB electronic billing standards; has pioneered SaaS account analysis; and is the only provider of its kind to serve both financial institutions and corporations. WFG solutions have been recognized as "Best in Breed" by Business Finance Magazine for eight consecutive years and are used by many of the world's most prestigious banks and corporations, including more than 200 of the Fortune 500.

For banks and credit unions, WFG's Commercial Account Analysis (CAA) is a full-featured billing suite that generates account analysis statements, analyzes customer profitability, and drives fee income. For corporate treasurers, WFG's Bank Relationship Manager Edge (BRMEdge) automates the electronic receipt, processing and analysis of billing statements for reduced bank fees and increased productivity. Also for corporations, WFG's Bank Administrator Web (BAWeb) uses the new eBAM standard to electronically manage bank account and signatory data, enabling enhanced control and transparency. WFG's solutions are available on-premise, SaaS or outsourced to WFG specialists.

WFG plans to continue to offer and support its solutions on a stand-alone basis. Additionally, Open Solutions plans to integrate WFG's products into its own offerings for enhanced client value. WFG employees will become Open Solutions employees.
