DESCRIPTION
Measuring customer loyalty to financial institutions (FIs) differs from measuring customer loyalty to most other institutions, products or services. Banks sometimes keep customers because of the perceived hassle factor associated with switching to a new FI. Slightly more than two-thirds (68 percent) of FI customers agree that “switching my primary checking account to a different financial institution is more hassle than it’s worth.” But our research with 3,000 consumers shows that customers who merely stick with their FIs due to inertia aren’t loyal and don’t keep a large share of their deposits and/or loans with their primary checking account provider. A long-term customer doesn’t necessarily equal a loyal customer. And, a loyal customer is not necessarily a profitable one.

Generating profitable bank customer loyalty
• Measuring customer loyalty to financial institutions (FIs) is complex.
– Consumers’ perceived costs of switching financial institutions are high.
– Our research shows that customers who merely stick with FIs because of the switching hassle aren’t loyal and don’t keep a large share of their deposits and/or loans with their primary checking account provider.
– A long-term customer doesn’t necessarily equal a loyal customer.
• Some customers are “loyal” in some aspects of their behaviors — e.g., they trust and would recommend their FI, they wouldn’t leave their FI — but their transactional behaviors aren’t aligned; many of them are not profitable customers. Having loyal customers helps, but doesn’t guarantee, profitable relationships.
– In order to maintain healthy relationships with customers, the FI needs both loyal and profitable customers.
• This presentation features recent research on elements that drive customer loyalty and how FIs can foster loyal relationships that, in turn, can increase their percentage of profitable customers.

• Functional: Superior products and/or services create value
– Trust in the brand’s products/services – Willingness to recommend
• Transactional: Concentrated spending with a brand
– Willingness to make repeat purchases – Share of wallet increases
• Emotional (most sought and least attained): Customers identify with the brand based on appealing to their values
– Personally relate to representatives of the brand – Switching is minimal

Our estimate of customer profitability is based on:
Revenues:
• Liability spread (Funds Transfer Price less interest rate) based on checking, savings, money market and certificate of deposit balances
• Net interest margin based on balances maintained on credit card, automobile, educational, residential mortgage and home equity loans maintained with the primary checking account provider
• Monthly fees paid on the primary checking account
• Debit card interchange
Expenses:
• Channel servicing costs for the primary checking account based on the number of channel interactions per month
• Payment servicing costs for the primary checking account based on the number of payment transactions per month
• An estimate of overhead for every checking account household
FI customers are divided into six segments based on loyalty and profitability
