The Challenge
Challenger banks are a hot topic in the UK. But with current account switching behaviour at very low levels, who is likely to put their money and trust into a relatively unknown digital-only bank?
The Solution
Our approach was simple: we integrated multi-source data to paint a richly-profiled picture of consumers likely to have a strong affinity with the challenger bank’s proposition. We tailored three custom questions for citizens and interpreted data from their Facebook likes, Smartphone app usage and personality traits to provide insights about the attitudes and behaviours of potential customers.
The Insights: 3 Key Findings
The path to growth
Consumers are ready, but awareness is low. 1 in 3 UK consumers are accepting of the challenger bank proposition, but 63% of this segment are unaware of challenger banks. That’s a lot of growth potential if challenger banks can improve their brand awareness.
