TRUST CRISIS
Why customers have lost trust in their banks
Global Financial Crisis
Failing banks
Mergers & Acquisitions
Government bail outs High fees
Banker bonuses
Poor customer experience
Global Consumer Banking Survey 2011 (Ernst & Young)
• Huge investments • No bail outs
• Entrepreneurial endeavour • Wealth creation
Poor Level of Service / Product Offering
Trust crisis is not caused by the Great Financial Crisis
Trust has been low for a long time…
• Buying expertise of provider • Ongoing consumer relationship • Less likely to compare products
• Inertia is rife (‘all the same’)
has its roots in the nature of consumer finance products
• Low headline prices
• Poor product and service quality • Competing for first time buyers
Financial Service Providers exploit consumer inertia?

“If your customers don’t trust you.
You can spend as much
time, effort and money as you want on marketing
campaigns, branding and advertising.
It will barely move the
needle.”

Behind every great brand is a great brand experience
“It’s already too
late by the time
you’re doing
customer service.”
“The best
customer service
is if the customer
doesn’t need to
call you, doesn’t
need to talk to you.
It just works.”
“Too many banks hide behind account
terms and conditions”
“You don’t need a points programme;
you just need to answer the phone”
“We prefer customers who fit the
bank’s approach”
“Authenticity is delivering the customer
experience promised”
“Customer experience is not what we
think it is” “It’s what the customer thinks it is”
“Contact centre is ambassador of trust
relationship”
