Curriculum

As financial institutions ponder the changes in delivering financial services, it becomes increasingly evident that focusing on businesses should be a high priority. They are your best, most profitable customers or members. The question we should be asking is “Are we a strategic partner to our current and future business customers”?

By examining how you become strategic, you can focus on business services that go beyond the tactical and provide a benefit beyond traditional cash management / treasury services. When FIs assist businesses in lowering their costs, provide business growth assistance or enhance the customer experience, they become a strategic partner to those businesses.

This banking webinar will highlight 5 specific opportunities FIs should consider in order to transition from a “financial institution” into a valued strategic partner.
