The author studies the existence of eigenvectors of the system \[ \begin{aligned} \int_I k_2(t,s)f_1(s,\varphi(s),\psi(s)) ds& = \mu \varphi(t),\\ \int_I k_2(t,s)f_2(s,\varphi(s),\psi(s)) ds& = \mu \psi(t),\end{aligned} \] in an ordered Banach space. The kernels \(k_i\) are assumed to be nonnegative and continuous real functions and the functions \(f_1\) and \(f_2\) satisfy certain monotonicity requirements. The proof relies on fixed point index theory. An application to the nonlinear boundary value problem \[ \begin{aligned} u(t)&= f_1(t,u(t),v(t)),\\ v(t)&= f_2(t,u(t),v(t)),\end{aligned} \] where \(0<t< 1\) and \(u(0)=v(0)=u(1)=v(1) =0\) is also given.
