5 Key Trends Finance and Insurance Businesses Must Consider to Ensure Success in the 2020s
#1: Gen Z is coming of age, with high usage – and expectations –
of their banks and insurers.
Action:Two seemingly competing desires – for human contact and seamless digital
experiences – are prime motivators for your youngest customers. Gen-Z, now the second-largest generation in the U.S., is moving into the workforce.
Those financial services firms best able to provide these tech-savvy consumers with personalized and emotionally satisfying experiences online
and in person will win their loyalty.
77% of Gen Z members (people aged 14 to 21) already earn income through part-time or regular freelance employment.

The pressure is on.Established insurance companies and traditional banks are now challenged to keep pace with digital-native FinTech upstarts and big technology companies seeking to
make inroads into the financial services industry.
To keep up, the industry as a whole must evolve. Advanced tools and technologies that enable banks and insurers to provide superior emotional experiences to
their digital customers by tracking behaviors and indications of engagement and frustration can change the game. Greater personalization and attention to detail
when it comes to experiences is the bedrock upon which customer loyalty is built.
So, to achieve success in the 2020s, it won’t be enough to simply track traditional metrics like page views, conversion rates, and bounce rates. You must know how to
track the quality of your customers’ experiences if you are to stay competitive.
The future of Finance and Insurance optimization rests on the new category of experience data.
