Capabilities overview Retail Banking: A Transformational Model for Growth Using a Customer-Centric Approach
Capabilities Overview It s a New World The retail banking industry is in the midst of a seismic shift. But it s not the ups and downs of the markets that cause the shift. It s the rising power of the customers and changing regulatory conditions across the globe. Customers now hold the power in their relationships with banks. They are more connected, vocal, and on the lookout for stronger relationships than ever before. They don t just want a place to put their money. Today s consumers want to be understood as people. They are looking for financial advice and guidance, as well as transparency and trust in these turbulent times. And if they don t find that in one bank, they simply move on to another. It s much easier for consumers to switch banks or use multiple banks for their monetary needs than it was in the past. This newly empowered customer base makes for an uncertain future for many banks, which in the past were primarily focused inward. In a time of volatility and unpredictability among financial services companies, the one constant is customers. Regulators are also defining new rules for banks about controlling leverage of individuals, limiting the amount of fees and commissions levied by banks and reinforcing more transparent communication. This time of uncertainty is also a time of opportunity. Consumers will reward banks with their loyalty and recommendations if they meet their needs and help them as advisors. Banks can increase their profitability by balancing their customers needs and expectations with the costs of doing business. This means providing better products, services, and prices, while also improving cross-sell ratios and internal efficiencies. This makes being relevant more important than ever. Customer management became one of the most critical components to economic survival and sustainable growth. In this time of volatility and unpredictability among financial services companies, the one constant is customers. Changing Environment The financial crisis, the advent of new technologies and the increasing usage of social media are effecting a power shift within the retail banking industry. Lead or Lose Ground New realities have emerged. Retail banks are no longer just one cog in a giant financial services wheel. They are expected to be profitable and solvent on their own. Couple this with the fact that the financial services industry has shifted from a supply-driven market, where the focus is on maximizing the value created by each product, to a demand-driven market, which focuses on maximizing the value of each customer relationship.

Banks such as Santander, BBVA, Garanti Bank, TD Bank, Nordea, Wells Fargo, SEB and Credit Agricole, which have strong retail businesses, all came out of the crisis with higher ranks among the most profitable banks. The connection between customer centricity and economic strength is no coincidence. The retail banking space is shifting to focus on building relationships with existing customers 2011 Peppers & Rogers Group. All rights protected and reserved. 2

Peppers & Rogers Group s High-Level Approach We believe that customer management is essential for banks to build and maintain strong relationships and a healthy bottom line. Within the concept of customer management, three priorities emerge as the best opportunities to achieve these goals: 1. Generate customer insight by leveraging analytics Learn as much as possible about your customers before deciding how to best serve them. 2. Understand the different needs and characteristics of customers, and manage them accordingly Create customer segments based on value, needs and behavior, then develop customized marketing, sales, and service plans that are relevant and valuable to these groups. 3. Manage the customer relationship in the most appropriate channels Find efficient and effective channels that customers prefer and create customer experiences that are consistent across those channels, whether it is in the branch, online, the call center, or elsewhere. This requires investment in the right people, processes, and technologies. We believe that customer management is essential for a healthy bottom line. Banks and other firms taking a customer-centric approach to growth should develop a framework for managing the customer experience around these priorities. 2011 Peppers & Rogers Group.
