## **Research & Case Studies**

At FINOS, [research and case studies](https://www.finos.org/research-case-studies#research) play a pivotal role in showcasing the business value that open source collaboration delivers across the financial services ecosystem. These stories show how open source delivers positive ROI by reducing development costs and vendor lock-in while driving innovation, resilience, and faster time-to-market.

# State of open source in finance reports

Since 2021, we have produced an annual State of Open Source in Financial Services Report, in partnership with Linux Foundation Research, to examine industry trends and insights. Per our 2025 Report, the financial services industry is all-in on open source and is primed to move beyond adoption to increase ROI and set the pace for the next phase of collaborative innovation.
