Excerpt
Fiserv, the largest provider of technology, logistics and information management for the financial services industry has recently updated its 25-year-old logo which, rather painfully, demonstrated its 1984 roots. Designed by Landor, the new wordmark is an excellent corporate design: It is simple, confident and has just enough quirks to make it unique and ownable.
