Emerging trends in retail banking

Reorganizing around customers rather than products or channels

In 2020, an interesting emerging trend in retail banking that we can expect to see is that banks will gradually move their focus away from products and services and begin organizing themselves around creating exceptional customer experiences. They will aim to develop the ability to view customers as a single unit by recognizing their uniqueness and tailoring offerings to suit their needs rather than being ‘pushy’ to buy banking products or avail of different services.

The growth of social media

Social media is not just one of the emerging trends in retail banking, but it has become widely popular across industries. In 2020 and beyond, retail banking companies will embrace social media platforms as a primary source to connect, engage, inform, and understand their customers. It is also expected to become an important platform where customers research banking products/ services and make purchase decisions. Mastering social media capabilities will be a core competency for retail banking companies to cope with the emerging trends in retail banking.

As the pace of change is increasing in the retail banking space, companies must ensure that they are well-positioned to align with the emerging trends in retail banking.
