Session Description:

Organic deposit growth comes from multiple sources including new branches, mass market branding and product promotions and by cross-selling existing customers. Even though every bank says they prioritize customer cross-sell strategies, a quick review of the banks’ total marketing spend demonstrates otherwise. What many banks know but fail to capitalize on is that up to 85% of total organic deposit growth comes from the banks’ existing high balance deposit households. Essentially those households who already control the vast majority of total retail deposit balances are also the source of incremental deposit growth and, by virtue of their existing value, are also a key retention priority.

Using our national normative database of 50 million US retail banking households we know that more than a 90% concentration of deposits is typically held by about 20% or less of the banks’ total deposit households. We call these households Investment Seekers and their profile is substantially similar in every bank we’ve analyzed over the last 20 years.

A customer-centric versus product-centric cross-sell approach expands performance measurement from simply widgets sold through individual campaigns to measuring the true impact of frequent marketing communications in deepening and widening share of wallet and household and balance retention over time. This approach has continually contributed new account, new and augmented balances and a dramatic impact on household retention. All with a remarkable 400% ROI in just the first 12-months.

This session is appropriate for senior financial services executives with responsibility for Retail Banking, New Account Acquisition and Retention, Market Research and Strategy teams.
