Editor's Notes

  1. Companies today are looking for new ways to attract, retain and satisfy customers by making customer service their top priority. A great number of customers, especially loyal customers who stay with a company for years, translates into greater profits and financial stability for the company. To consistently deliver exceptional customer service, a financial services company –such as an insurance company, a bank, a credit card company, a mutual fund company, or an investment company, typically relies on the combined efforts of many people from various areas within the organization. Everyone who works for a financial services firm is responsible for ensuring that customers receive high-quality service.
