How Leaders Better Understand Key Issues
Meeting the challenge of new customer acquisition
Today’s slow-growth environment is a challenging headwind for financial institutions. This is causing banks and credit unions to reevaluate their new customer acquisition strategies for consumers and small businesses.
In this month’s BAI Executive Report, we provide insights to help shape and fine-tune your customer acquisition strategy and tactics.
Rethinking risk after the SVB collapse
The stunning collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and other banks in early 2023 has reframed how the industry is thinking about risk.
Joan McGowan and Tom French from SAS join us to offer advice to banks and credit unions on how to better address the many risks they face.
