THE FUTURE “AR Nu” What We Can Learn from Sweden About the Future of Retail Distribution FOREWORD Banking is highly regulated, intensely competitive and provides products that, while omnipresent in consumers’ lives, are neither top-of-mind nor enticing to change. These factors drive the role and form of innovation the industry can capitalize on. In traditional business history – the realm of auto manufacturers, microchip makers, logistics companies and retailers – the literature rightly hails disruptive, game-changing innovation as the engine behind outsized profits for the first movers. In banking, such innovation is very rare. Disruptive innovations of the magnitude of the smartphone or social networking grab headlines, but are hard to leverage in the banking industry. There are simply too many restrictions on what banks can do, and too much consumer path dependency, to place all the shareholders’ chips on disruptive innovation plays. Instead, successful banks develop and execute strategies around less “flashy”, dare we say, small-scale innovation that can still reap outsize returns for their shareholders. This issue of the Oliver Wyman Retail and Business Banking Digest takes a closer look at some key innovation opportunities available to banks today, including: • Paths to success in small business banking through new form lending and other challenges to conventional wisdoms • Process redesign opportunities triggered by advances in mobile technology, as in mortgage, or through performance management techniques • Learning from innovation abroad This eclectic list illustrates one of the greatest benefits to small-scale innovation – there is always room for incremental upside. Each effort, executed effectively, will drive additional gains, while affording the flexibility to react to new opportunities. Additionally, such innovation can be a key move in the game of “strategic chess”, such as the recent Chase/Visa partnership announcement (explored in this digest), which their competitors must now respond to. I hope you find these articles thought provoking. Michael Zeltkevic On behalf of the Retail and Business Banking Practice TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. SMALL BUSINESS BANKING 4 Challenging Conventional Wisdom to Achieve Outsize Growth and Profitability The SB segment has long presented a significant opportunity for US banks. However, strategies that meet small business needs, create differentiation and maximize potential economic returns have proven elusive. While many banks have settled back into conventional strategies, challengers to these standards can define a break-out strategy that gains material share from competitors and delivers higher growth and higher profits. 2. FINANCING SMALL BUSINESSES 11 How “New-Form Lending” Will Reshape Banks’ Small Business Strategies “New-form lending” is a new approach to small business financing that will satisfy an unmet need for short-term cashflow financing for SBs. New-form lending relies on the analysis and ongoing monitoring of daily cashflows to assess and control risk. This is a major profit opportunity that can also help improve traditional loan underwriting processes by lowering unit costs and improving risk differentiation. 3. ENhaNCED PERfoRMANCE MANAGEMENT 16 Driving Breakthrough Productivity in Retail Banking Operations Years of relentless focus by retail banks on improving the efficiency of the operations function have left few residual opportunities to drive transformational savings without diluting service quality. By developing a new way of measuring employee productivity and compensation, Enhanced Performance Management (EPM) fills this gap by dramatically increasing employee throughput, while simultaneously improving risk, quality and the client experience. 4. INNOVatION IN MORtgagE OPERatIONS 21 Building a Scalable Model The last 20 years have seen a number of innovations in the design of mortgage origination processes. Looking ahead, however, we see three factors converging that will now provide both the opportunity and the forcing mechanism for institutions once more to rethink their approach to mortgage originations, driving fundamental progress in the core operations of the business. 5. ChasE MERCHANT SERVICES 28 How Will it Disrupt the Card Payments Balance of Power? In the current power play between issuers, networks, and acquirers, JPMorgan Chase has taken a first step towards creating a new 3-party network with Chase Merchant Services. This paper explores how this will impact Chase’s competitors and its customers (merchants and cardholders), as well as the networks themselves. 6. THE FUTURE “AR NU” 33 What We Can Learn from Sweden About the Future of Retail Distribution With high mobile and internet banking adoption, low branch traffic and heavy use of electronic payments, Sweden and its banks provide invaluable insight into the future of retail banking. This article explores the factors that enabled Swedish banks to accelerate evolution and evaluates what one can learn about the future of US retail distribution and how to enable a smooth transformation. 1.

  • Northfield Savings Bank 140 YEARS of HISTORY
    Northfield Savings Bank FOUNDED 1867 140 YEARS OF HISTORY Foreword he Northfield Savings Bank is a strong presence in Northfield, Vermont. Its many branches are locatedT throughout the central part of the State and the greater Burlington area, important institutions within their communities. The Bank—and its Flying Pig mascot— are well known throughout Washington, Orange, Windsor, and Chittenden Counties. Unfortunately, much of the Bank’s history is not so visible or well known. A good portion of the Bank’s historical archives, including many photographs, were destroyed in a flood a number of years ago. Although the Bank is obliged to save financial records—its vault contains many dusty ledgers— the history of the Bank as a physical place, and as an employer and presence in the community, is not to be found in these documents. This history is intended to fill some of those gaps. Drawn from a limited amount of archival material and from interviews with Bank officials and community members, its intent is to provide an accurate picture of how the Bank changed—and how it stayed the same—over the years. We apologize for any omissions, glaring or otherwise. Russell J.

  • Savings Bank
    Savings Bank A savings bank is a financial institution whose primary purpose is accepting savings deposits and paying interest on those deposits. They originated in Europe during the 18th century with the aim of providing access to savings products to all levels in the population. Often associated with social good these early banks were often designed to encourage low income people to save money and have access to banking services. They were set up by governments or by or socially committed groups or organisations such as with credit unions. The structure and legislation took many different forms in different countries over the 20th century. The advent of internet banking at the end of the 20th century saw a new phase in savings banks with the online savings bank that paid higher levels of interest in return for clients only having access over the web. History In Europe, savings banks originated in the 19th or sometimes even the 18th century. Their original objective was to provide easily accessible savings products to all strata of the population. In some countries, savings banks were created on public initiative, while in others, socially committed individuals created foundations to put in place the necessary infrastructure. In 1914, the New Student's Reference Work said of the origins:[1] France claims the credit of being the mother of savings banks, basing this claim on a savings bank said to have been established in 1765 in the town of Brumath, but it is of record that the savings bank idea was suggested in England as early as 1697.

ABSTRACT The organization of automated teller machine (ATM) and electronic banking services in the United States has undergone significant structural changes in the past two or three years that raise questions about the long term prospects for the retail banking industry, the nature of network competition, ATM service pricing, and what role ATMs will play in the development of an interstate banking system. In this paper we investigate ways that banks use ATM services and membership in ATM networks as strategic marketing tools. We also examine how the changes in the size, number, and ownership of ATM networks (from banks or groups of banks to independent operators) have impacted the structure of ATM deployment in the retail banking industry. Finally, we consider how movement toward market saturation is changing how the public values electronic banking services, and what this means for bankers.
