4 1.0 Report Overview 1.1 Introduction The 2013 Financial Institution Consumer Recommendation & Loyalty Study has been conducted to understand and measure the depth of consumer loyalty towards their chosen financial institutions. A secondary objective was to identify the key elements financial institutions must put in place to increase customer loyalty, positive word of mouth, and growth. The study allows organisations to easily compare themselves to others within their industry and, at a high level outlines the reasons behind the scores of high and low performers. The internationally renowned Net Promoter Score methodology was used to measure customer loyalty in the study. Net Promoter Score was developed by loyalty expert Frederick Reichheld of Bain & Company and Satmetrix Systems. The concept is outlined in detail in Reichheld s bestseller The Ultimate Question: Driving Good Profits and True Growth and is used by major organisations worldwide. The Net Promoter Score is calculated by asking respondents their likelihood to recommend their brand on a scale of 0-10 where 0 is highly unlikely and 10 is highly likely. Respondents that score 9 or 10 are called Promoters, 7 to 8 are called Passives and 0 to 6 are called Detractors. The Net Promoter Score is the percentage of Promoters less the percentage of Detractors. What this report includes: Effectiveness and importance of word of mouth in comparison to other marketing channels Net Promoter Scores for the following financial institutions and the overall category score: o ANZ o Bank of Queensland o Bendigo Bank o Commonwealth Bank o National Australia Bank o St. George o Suncorp o Westpac o Credit unions (amalgamated) Ranking of the above brands by the percentage of Promoters, Passives and Detractors Net Promoter Score analysis comparing Australia to the US, UK, France & Germany An analysis of the reasons consumers attribute to their likelihood to recommend a brand Number of positive and negative comments consumers make about their respective brands Percentage of consumers that selected their brand primarily because of word of mouth Quantification of the economic impact of both negative and positive word of mouth Net Promoter, NPS, and Net Promoter Score are trademarks of Satmetrix Systems, Inc., Bain & Company and Fred Reichheld.

Survey Methodology This is an independent survey conducted by Engaged Marketing Pty Ltd. Fieldwork for this benchmarking study was collected from 3365 respondents via an online opt-in survey in the second quarter of Respondents were recruited from throughout Australia. Care was taken to ensure the survey met the strict conditions for an NPS survey. All respondents were actual users/customers of the various brands. Only scores for brands with sample sizes equal to or greater than 100 were displayed. Hence the study only displays results for the most popular Australian financial institutions. However, the smaller organisations scores were included to calculate the overall industry scores. Certain responses, such as the neutralising factor, number of positive comments and negative comments, were capped to ensure that a few outlier respondents did not skew the economic analysis.
