20 years on from Big Bang, the financial services sector is a great British success story. London is at the centre of an international market in financial services.
But for the players in this complex environment, growth is getting harder to come by. And this presents constant management and marketing challenges to companies that want to succeed.
Financial services firms face a series of strategic challenges. Marketing-led strategies require firms to shape their value propositions more accurately around customer need. Successful product innovation has become a key to competitive advantage. Compliance and risk management are a constant challenge to the pace of growth. Predicting and addressing customer need is increasingly difficult.
To thrive in this environment, firms need successful and practical strategies for each of these challenges.
Above all, firms do best when they align their business behind a deep understanding of customers’ complex needs. And by doing so, turn growth opportunities into revenue.
