Leading banks will become a trusted

Delivery and experience re-defined by 2030
Data will underpin the delivery of seamless, integrated experiences

that span beyond banking to anticipate and satisfy other customer
needs. Data will be at the heart of how banks deliver new forms of
value to customers and how they will make money in 2030 (in
response to emerging consumer needs around their personal data).
Embedding banking within the consumers everyday needs, lifestyles
and life-stages will be key - as will providing and creating financial

will need to adapt and adopt greater levels of
automation moving forward.
Banking in 2030
Where to next Truly individualised customer-centred banking
As we’ve discussed, the current trends in technology,

data, regulation and the transformation of business
models will cause a major shift for digital banking.
But at the centre of everything lies the customer
and their expectations.
For the finance industry to truly succeed and stay
relevant, they will need to tackle and own these six
key themes:
Lifestyle Integration Customers expect their banks to know them.

Therefore, banking will need to deliver next
level hyper-relevance and understanding.
Automated and Intuitive Customers expect us to minimise the time

and effort required to do things. So, banking
needs to be super easy to use, and where
relevant, be in the background.
Context and Sensitivity Customers expect understanding and

empathy. To display this, banks will need
to deliver services and experiences that
contextually align to the customers’ life
stage, needs and circumstances.
Proactive and Forward-Thinking Successful businesses work tirelessly

on exceeding customer expectations by
anticipating what they want. Banks will need
to anticipate what a customer needs before
they ask for it.
Pioneers of Trust and Security Customers will only deal with businesses
which demonstrate integrity. There needs
to be a shift to providing data security,
protection and cyber security to customers,
and banking should be the sector that leads
the market.
Resolution Customers don’t just judge businesses by

what they do right. They appraise them for
how they resolve issues. Banks will need
to practice proactive accountability and
tackle an issue even before it impacts
the customer.

Customers will still need to save, borrow, invest and make payments,

drive an intense and urgent new battle between incumbents and
challengers to be their trusted interface of choice.

activities will often be hidden within ‘super-apps’ that can fulfil daily
