Assessing in a detailed component level as well as on a quantified and qualitative basis the Internal (Strengths & Weaknesses) and External (Opportunities & Threats) environment of Cooperative (C) and Popular (P) Banking, is crucial in identifying and evaluating the critical factors for growth, stagnation or failure.
This report contains the results of the International SWOT Assessment Survey (ISWOT14) aiming to assist the ISDVI15 (International Strategic dialogue on Value Innovation) team of experts to design a Business Model prototype that has the potential to become the basis of Tomorrow’s C&P banks. The report is deliberately designed in a clean and minimalistic way to provide conveniently accessible information during a fast-paced strategic dialogue (ISDVI15).
A selected group (Purposive Sample) of 500 professionals and members of the sector that conformed the criteria set by the researcher and CIBP, have been asked to complete a highly technical on-line questionnaire consisting of 88 items / questions corresponding to 7 different dimensions / assessments, related to specific to the Business Model and Value Innovation building blocks.
In particular, ISWOT14 includes seven assessments in the areas of: a) Basis of Competition, b) Value Proposition, c) Cost / Revenue, d) Infrastructure, e) Customer / Member Interface, f ) Threats and g) Opportunities.
Dr. Fotis Filippopoulos Director [email protected]
Participation in the survey was voluntary, it was conducted in compliance with the ICC/ESOMAR International Code on Market and Social Research and took approximately 25 minutes to complete. All responses were treated as strictly confidential and reported only in the aggregate.
In total, from the 500 targeted professionals, members and customers, 99 responses were received from individuals in 5 different organisational positions and / or roles, across 27 banks and institutions from 11 countries. This number corresponds to a response rate of 20% that is well above the expected rate of 10% to 15% for an external on-line study with no incentives.
We are grateful to all individuals who participated in ISWOT14 and indeed for the insights, ideas, experience and knowledge that they shared with us. With their participation, great insights have emerged that are essential for our study entitled "Designing tomorrow’s Cooperative & Popular Banks”. The study will be presented during the 29th CIBP Congress on "Innovation for Strengthening Popular and Cooperative Banks" that will take place on 19 and 20 October 2015 in Rio de Janeiro. Thank you.

ISWOT14 Assessment Survey
Strenghts
In this section, all items and dimensions included in ISWOT14 are consolidated and quantified to produce practical and actionable data related to the assessments of the Basis of Competition, Value Propositions, Costs / Revenues, Infrastructure, Customer / Member Interface, Threats and Opportunities. Through Differential Analysis an overall SWOT score is produced, deriving from the quantification of (S) Strengths, (W) Weaknesses, (O) Opportunities and (T) Threats, in order to identify and measure the “Current Position” and capability gaps of C&P banks Business Model.
In contrast to classical SWOT analysis that is based on largely subjective techniques that fail to quantify the level / status of the “current position” of a given “system” and for each of the four elements, here units of measurement were obtained from a Likert-type 10-point scale with fixed choice response formats, corresponding to the level of agreement or disagreement with the supplied statements [from (1) low to (10) high]. The “position” refers to the present SWOT status of the C&P banking Business Model.
To calculate the “Current Position” (ΦS) the following formula was applied: ΦS = (S – W) + (O – T). Surprisingly, analysis produced a near zero (2.56) overall SWOT score (out of an unrealistically maximum score of 20), across the four elements indicating that participants do not perceive the “current status” of C&P banking Business Model as being neither Strong or Weak. A low SWOT score (2.56) may also indicate that the “current” Business Model provides a limited capacity to C&P banks to exploit the plethora of Opportunities (8.16) in the market.

Moreover, although the Strengths (7.46) outweigh the Weaknesses (6.33), that is an indicator of a “Capability surplus” also shown in the relatively high Infrastructure assessment (7.32) and Customer / Member Interface (7.77) scores, however, the near equal distance between Strengths and Opportunities (0.7) and Strengths and Threats (0.73) is also an indication of a Business Model that does not provide high levels of competitiveness and protection from the competition and especially from new non-bank entrants with innovative Business Models and Value Propositions to could attack the system from below and inevitably change the industry and in their favour.

Assessing the Basis of Competition.
9KEY AREAS
562KEY ITEMS
830TOTAL RESPONSES
Apart from the fixed choice response formats, the ISWOT14 also included a set of open ended / text questions with the intent to provide qualitative insights related to key areas / elements of the C&P banking business model. In this section to assess the Basis of Competition of C&B banking 9 open ended questions / dimensions were employed to generate a total of 830 responses (constructs), from the 99 participants in the study.
Specifically, these areas include: a) an assessment of the Basis of Competition (Q.1), b) insights regarding the elements that participants think must change immediately in the sector (Q.2), c) the identification of the “Single Point of Failure” (Q.3, Q.4 & Q.5), d) the key Problems (Q.6) and e) key Cost elements (Q.7), f ) the identification of the Key Factors for Success (Q.8) and finally g) insights on relevant, adjacent or entirely different to C&P banking industries / applications (Q.9) that could provide inspiration on possible future trajectories during the strategic dialogue (ISDVI15).
The points of distinctions over multiple responses formed the dimensions of each of these key areas and their sub-components / dimensions, upon which the elements / statements were evaluated and responses were generated. The resulting data was placed in a C x E matrix, where C equals the number of constructs or rows and E equals the number of elements. The results provide evidence of strong unifying themes in participants’ responses that were analysed in terms of frequency of occurrence. More specifically, the core categorisation procedure of the responses in this section, resulted in 38 distinct and key elements with 562 corresponding items or responses.
Specifically, in Q.1 participants were asked to identify the 8 key competitive factors that “currently” characterise C&P banking in order to include these as such in the Value Profiling process during the strategic dialogue (ISDVI15). Analysis showed that the following competitive factors are considered as the most important in descending order, namely: 1) Customer / Member Acquisition & Relationship Management (75 or 25,5% of responses in this question), 2) Locality / Proximity and Branch network (55 or 18,7%), 3) Brand & Brand Values (Trust, Transparency, Honesty, Solidarity) (45 or 15,3%), 4) Decision Effectiveness & Democratic Governance (39 or 13,3%), 5) Product / Service Mix & Quality Management (24 or 8,1%), 6) Information Technology & New Technologies (18 or 6,1%), 7) Price of Products & Services (10 or 3,4%) and 8) Talent Development & HR Management (8 or 2,7%).
The second dimension, referring to the 3 key elements that participants think that must change immediately in the sector (Q.2) generated 41 responses, corresponding to 4 key elements that include 26 responses (63.4% of 41 responses) in the areas of Operations Management, Service mix, Governance and Human Resources, reflecting: a) Faster, more Efficient / Effective Operations & Process Optimisation Management (8), b) Integration, Personalisation & Diversification of Products / Services & Systems (8), c) Improvement of decision effectiveness & Governance (5) and d) Talent Development, HR Management & opportunities for better education in Finance (5).

ISWOT14 Assessment Survey
The third dimension, referring to the identification of the “Single Point of Failure” (Q.3, Q.4 and Q.5) or SPF, generated 155 responses, corresponding to 8 main emergent sub-categories (87 or 56,1% of 155 responses) that relate to the part of the system that, if it fails, will stop the entire system from working, from the business / user / member and brand combined perspectives. Results showed that among other fundamental SPFs in the C&P banking system, like IT / Technology (10 or 11,4% of 87 responses), Liquidity (5), Customer / Member Relationships (5), Proximity (9) and Credit provision (7), the loss of Trust and Credibility (20 or 22,9% of responses), the loss of Values, ethics, reputation and Brand (16 or 18,3%) and a decline in Service Quality and Expertise (15 or 17,2%) where found to be the most integrated (overlapping) SPFs across all 3 perspectives, thereby the most important ones.
The fourth dimension related to the 3 biggest problems that Cooperative and Popular Banking faces (Q.6) includes 132 responses reflecting 4 key emergent sub-categories (50 or 37,8% of 132 responses) in the areas of: a) Competition on a large scale and from non-bank players (16 or 32% of 50 responses), b) strict regulations & misunderstanding of the cooperative sector (especially by the government) (12 or 24%), c) lack of innovation in Products, Services & Business Model (11 or 22%) and d) Challenges deriving from Information and technology progress and digitalisation (11 or 22%).
Moving on, in the fifth dimension (Q.7), participants also identified the 3 key elements of the business that contribute the most to the overall Cost structure(96 responses) related to Human Capital, Technology and Network.
These 3 key cost-generation elements (53 or 55,2% of 96 responses) correspond to: a) Human resources (21 or 39,6% of 53 responses in this category), b) Information systems and Technology costs (17 or 32%) and c) Local presence / Proximity / Branch network costs (15 or 28,3%). In suggesting ideas / concepts on what shall be the basis of future success for C&P banks (Q.8 - sixth dimension), participants produced 72 ideas corresponding to 4 main categories or dimensions (39 of 72 responses) related to Technology, Corporate Values, Service Quality, and Relationship Management. Specifically, the key sub-dimensions include: a) Customer / Member Acquisition, Relationship & Knowledge Management / Proximity & Close contact (20 of 39 responses), b) Preservation of cooperative values (7), c) Service quality (6) and d) Investment in Information Technology & other new related technologies (6).
Finally, the seventh dimension, referring to the assessment of the “Basis of Competition”, related to suggestions about non-competitive or non-directly related industries whose value offerings; Business Model and competitive parameters could be used as a source of inspiration by the ISDVI15 team to develop entirely novel Value Propositions for the C&P banking sector (Q.9) includes 41 responses, reflecting 3 related and non-related industries (33 responses) in the areas of Information Technology & New Technologies, Crowd sourcing and various Platform providers like: a) Google’s and social media (Facebook, twitter) business models (17 of 33 responses), b) Micro financing model and Crowdfunding / Crowd sourcing Model (10) and c) Apple “like” (Platform provision, i.e Apple Pay services NFC) (6).

155RESPONSESIdentifying the Single
Point of Failure.
The “Single Point of Failure” or SPF is a new concept and an integral part of the Total Value Innovation (TVI) methodology that will be applied during the ISDVI15. The SPF is the part of the system that, if it fails, will stop the entire system from working. The SPF helps participants to identify, understand and develop protective measures against the combination of parameters that could lead to a systemic critical failure. To provide a holistic SPF analysis the business / user / member and brand perspectives should be considered and combined. The more integrated an SPF element is across the 3 perspectives the more important it is.

ISWOT14 Assessment Survey
Value Proposition (VP) Assessment.
The assessment of Value Propositions refers to the service and product mix that creates Value for the customers and members of C&P banks. This assessment consists of 3 key items related to a) the level of alignment of the Value Propositions (VP) with customer / Member needs (Q.10), b) The network effects of the VPs offered (Q.11) and c) The synergies between the service mix (Q.12).
Analysis produced an overall score of 7.88 indicating that C&P banking offers high levels of Value to the customers / members that is well aligned with their needs and with strong network effects but with moderate synergies within the service mix.
To better understand what is driving the summary results, the trends and patterns and how the key (categorical) variables are related to each other and the significance of their association, Cross-tabulations (CT) were performed throughout ISWOT14. On that basis only the Chi-square values (alpha) that were statistically significant at p < 0,05 ("cutoff" point) are included in the report.
Specifically, here CT was applied to see if there is a relationship between the level of alignment of VPs with Customer / Member needs (Q.10) and the level of alignment of the Brand with the Business Model (BM) and VPs (Q.48). The CT analysis indicated that with a p-Value of 0,0032 [Chi-square values (alpha) were statistically significant at 0.05] there is a significant association between these two variables.

Thus, the null hypothesis, that there is no link between VP, Brand and BM alignment in the current state of the C&P banks BM, is rejected. Additionally, the two categories of: a) the existence of strong synergies between the services (Q.12) and b) the opportunity to generate recurring revenues by introducing novel services (Q.67) were also found to be strongly correlated (p-Value: 0,0004), reinforcing the evidence provided by the research that further integration of services and the introduction of new ones constitute major opportunities for growth in C&P banking.

Cost / Revenue Assessment.
The Cost / Revenue assessment describes the Strengths and Weaknesses related to the Cost structure referring to the costs incurred to operate the current C&P banking business model and the Revenue structure referring to the way C&P banks capture value in relation to customers’ / members’ willingness to pay for the Value offered.
Analysis produced an overall low score of 6.87, indicating that the current Cost / Revenue structure is not competitive, with low margins (5.7), limited ability to collect revenues before any expenses are incurred (6.0), pricing mechanisms that do not capture full willingness to pay (6.9), a Cost structure that is not correctly matched to the business model (6.2) and operations that could be more cost efficient (6.4). The analysis also showed that the only major strength in this category is the predictably of costs (8.0).

The Infrastructure assessment includes the Resources, Activities and Partnerships (network) required to deliver the Value Propositions to the Customers / Members, whilst achieving operational efficiency.
With a relatively high score (7.32) the “current” position of the C&P banking business model appears to be “operations centric” with special emphasis on execution quality (7.7), focus on the core business (8.2) and in maintaining good working relationships with the key partners (8.7).
However, analysis showed that in this dimension the current C&P business model is not able to protect the banks from Resource (6.9) and Activity (6.2) replication by the competitors.

The Customer / Member interface appears to be one of the key Strengths (7.77) of the current C&P banking business model, with low churn rates (8.2), continuous new customer acquisition (8.4), exceptionally strong brand (9.3) and strong channel reach (8.0), channel visibility (8.0) and relationships (9.1) with customers / members, being amongst the key major strengths.
However, one of the key findings of ISWOT14 is the major Weakness as well as Threat of the inability of the current relationship framework to bind customers / members with high switching costs (5.76). Moreover, Cross Tabulation was used to investigate the significance of association among key variables in this category. Specifically analysis showed that three strongly correlated areas include: a) level of Channel integration (Q.41) and competitors threatening the Channels (Q.64) (p- Value: 0,0003), b) Channel effectiveness (Q.38) and danger of Channels becoming irrelevant to Customers / Members (Q.65) (p- Value: 0,0056) and c) level of Channel integration (Q.41) and danger of Channels becoming irrelevant to Customers / Members (Q.65) (p- Value: 0,0298).

WEIGHTED MEAN
This dimension of ISWOT14 looks at Threats specific to the business model innovation building blocks as these will be included in the TVI process during the strategic dialogue on Value Innovation (ISDVI15). Specifically, analysis showed that on the whole, Threats with a low score of 6.72 are perceived the lesser part of the problem with major Threats mainly coming from substitute products and services (8.4) and competitors threatening the margins (8.5), market share (8.1) and channels (79.3% agree). All in all, these results and despite the overall positively low score, indicate that the industry operates in a Red Ocean and that there is a justified need for C&P banks to pursue Value and Business Model Innovation.

The assessment of Opportunities also looks at specific to the business model innovation building blocks as these will be included in the TVI process during the strategic dialogue on Value Innovation (ISDVI15). It appears clear that there is a plethora of Opportunities (8.16) that C&P banks could exploit and also provide a source of inspiration for Value Innovation, improvement and renewal. Major Opportunities include the generation of recurring revenues by the introduction of novel services (8.52), the standardisation of some key activities (8.7), the greater collaboration with partners (8.1) and better customer / member service through a finer segmentation (8.0).
