Session Description:
Despite
the increasing popularity of online
channels and electronic payment
technologies, the branch remains most
banks’ primary acquisition, customer
service, sales, and marketing channel.
It is no surprise, then, that de novo
branch expansion continues to accelerate
across the country. Effective placement
of branches can help drive deposit
growth and revenue generation, build
more effective customer sales and
service teams, and reinforce an
institution’s value proposition in the
right ways to the right people. Too
often, however, placement decisions are
driven by intuition and a broad sense of
where growth is occurring, rather than
on concrete, ground-level information on
where the real opportunities are based
on the strategy of an organization.
This discussion will present and explain
analysis frameworks, methodologies,
metrics, and implementation
considerations for making fact-based
branch placement and network management
decisions. Topics will include:
-
Recent branch growth in the U.S. –
where, and why
-
Prioritizing markets for expansion
-
Evaluating and confirming specific
branch sites
-
Allocating branch resources
-
Additional considerations for
achieving branch channel success
This
program is appropriate for senior
financial executives with responsibility
for Strategy, Channel Management,
Distribution Management, Network
Management, Sales
Effectiveness and Market Research.
