FEATURING: Ryan Walker, Executive Strategist for Kasasa

Traditional banks and credit unions continue to face competition from challenger and online-only banks willing to offer higher yields for savings and deposits. However, now may be the perfect time to use market instability to build new banking relationships with innovative deposit and lending products.

In addition, banks can leverage an understanding of consumer behaviors to detect deposit-pricing sensitivities and tailor promotional offers to reach consumers most at risk of attrition and those who may move relationships to your organization.
