Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation FIS is a leading provider of technology solutions for merchants, banks and capital markets firms globally. On March 17, 2019, FIS, Wrangler Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FIS ("Merger Sub"), and Worldpay, Inc. ("Worldpay") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "merger agreement") pursuant to which Merger Sub would merge with and into Worldpay (the "merger"), with Worldpay surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of FIS (collectively, the "Worldpay acquisition"). On July 31, 2019, FIS completed the acquisition of Worldpay, and Worldpay's results of operations and financial position are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from and after the date of acquisition. As a result of the Company's acquisition of Worldpay, the Company reorganized its reportable segments and recast all prior-period segment information presented to align with the new reportable segments. The new segments are Merchant Solutions, Banking Solutions, and Capital Market Solutions, which are organized based on the markets and clients served aligned with the solutions they provide, as well as the Corporate and Other segment (see Note 22).
