BREAKOUT SESSION / THURSDAY / SEPTEMBER 13, 2018 / 1:00 PM
We’re in this together: How to turn customer relationships into partnerships
Privacy. Technology. Transparency. Security. Convenience. Control.
In a new age of banking that puts account holders in the driver’s seat, how can a bank possibly reconcile all of these demands, particularly when one (convenience, for instance) comes into conflict with another (security, for instance)?
One thing is certain: Getting the balance right will require FIs to think of themselves as customer partners — and not simply as service providers.
