Gene Cooney provides expert witness and litigation support services in matters pertaining to banks, savings and loans, credit unions and other financial services organizations to include pension, annuity, investment management and insurance companies. His extensive, hands-on experience offers a level of experience and detail few can match.  It is estimated that well over 95% of all financial institutions out source their software and transaction processing needs to Third Parties. This can significantly limit the expertise of many because they were never actually involved in the entire transaction process from receipt to posting. Virtually all of Mr. Cooney’s software and transaction processing experience was obtained from areas he managed and financial institutions he consulted with who performed all of these functions in-house.
