The Future of Consumerism

In this fascinating talk, Doug Stephens will tackle the future of consumerism. He’ll shed light on the key shifts in economics, demographics, technology, and media that are completely transforming the consumer landscape, and the very essence of retail banking.

Who the consumer is, and how, where, and why they use banking channels, is changing rapidly and forever. The way branches look — and how customers interact with them — is constantly in flux. Mobile technology, social media, location-based services, machine-to-machine connection, big data, and a deluge of developing technologies are all conspiring to forever change how we use and deliver financial services.

How do we cope with all these transformations? Doug will share what smart brands are doing to re-imagine their business and capitalize on historic changes.

Mobile Banking: What more can apps do?

Bank of America recently revamped its mobile banking app to make it a more versatile tool for users.

Tablets: Empowering customers and freeing employees

Digital solutions and touch points help retail banks bring their brand to life in their branch locations—bridging the digital with the physical. The use of tablets in branches, either as self-serve tablets for customers or in the hands of retail bankers, has proliferated. In this session, we’ll look at how tablets in banks can be used to engage customers, provide a more personalized experience, provide on-the-spot assistance, increase efficiencies, and generate cost-savings for branches.

You can lead a horse to water: Acclimating customers to self-service

The banking industry talks about “driving” users to self-service channels. But customers are not cattle and, when treated as such, tend to get huffy and take their business elsewhere. “Acclimating” might be a better term. Learn how smart bankers are easing account holders into self-service channels and earning the added benefit of deeper customer relationships.

Sharing the sandbox: How fintechs and banks are ‘playing nice’

Traditional FIs are starting to join forces with fintech providers as a strategy for rapidly acquiring digital expertise. For example, last year BBVA bought Holvi, a Finnish banking startup. What should an institution look for in an acquisition? And what is the best way to ensure that a new fintech partner will benefit both the bank and its customers?

Engaging customers through branch transformation and the ATM channel

Branch transformation isn’t any one thing: It’s not universal bankers with digital gadgets; not sleek self-service devices capable of almost any teller function; not IT systems that make everything work like magic. It’s all of these things, all revolving around the customer. Learn how one bank developed a comprehensive transformation strategy and pulled it off beautifully.

Harmonizing government regulation and customer requirements

The decision by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to potentially grant fintech firms a special charter did not sit well with traditional financial institutions. While it might level the playing field for fintechs, it heightens the pressure on banks to implement new technologies without crossing regulatory lines. What’s at stake for banks and their customers?

Branch Design: Built environments for a new era in banking

The Great Debate: Should payments providers adopt a single mobile platform?

Some industry pundits believe that a universal platform is a must for widespread consumer adoption of mobile payments. At the very least, they insist, mobile solutions should share standard features, which individual providers could then add to as desired. Could such an approach stifle innovation — or would it accelerate the growth of mobile payments?

We’re not consumers. We’re customers.

In this focus group-style session, we’ll “test” financial services trends with a group of consumers representing a cross-section of the American banking public. This followup to last year’s well-received millennial panel will challenge prevailing assumptions about demographic groups from baby boomers to Gen Z, and might change how you think about service delivery.
