Overview
Financial institutions today are under tremendous pressure to reinvent themselves. Rapidly changing consumer needs, combined with ever‐faster technology adoption curves and evolving regulatory pressures, have created an urgent demand to reimagine the digital banking experience. This report identifies key features that are necessary for success in the changing world and outlines a new business model to align institutions to future priorities. This report builds on an analysis of four neobank models: GoBank, Moven, Serve, and Simple, with takeaways that can improve any institution’s competitive position in the shifting digital landscape. The types of customers these new
providers attract — younger, urbanite, and underbanked — will be examined. Finally, the report provides a series of best practices for future‐proofing financial organizations and retooling branch networks for profitable operations in a new era.
