In introduction to marketing, the products or services may have its own life-cycle. It is important to know what are the stages currently for the products and services to determine the strategies that should be apply later on.
Innovation and Transformation in Financial ServicesCertus Solutions
Historically, financial services firms have struggled to target and tailor their product offerings to the customer journey. Often only traditional demographic information – gender, age, occupation – is collected with no real insight as to what life stage a customer is in and how this could influence their financial activity.
To compete in a consumer-empowered economy, it is increasingly clear that financial services firms must leverage their information assets to gain a comprehensive understanding of markets, customers, channels, products, regulations, competitors, suppliers, employees and more.
Millennials & Money: One Generation, Many Goals & ValuesEdelman
In the 2016 Millennials & Money research, the Edelman Financial Services Sector and Edelman Intelligence teams explored the role of money and financial services in the lives of Millennials throughout the U.S. The research revealed their beliefs and attitudes towards money and uncovered how their goals and values differ based on ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

In a K-based economy, knowledge is the most critical factor of production. It generates more
wealth than the other traditional factors of production, land, labour and capital. It is also a
commodity in itself. This is in contrast to a production-based economy, where knowledge plays
a less prominent role, and growth is driven largely by the accumulation of the traditional factors
of production. In a K-based economy, educated and skilled human resources, or human capital,
is the most valuable asset.
Currency wars triple dips and politics to dominate 2013Richard Ramsey
Slides from a Guest Lecture for the University of Ulster's Business School.
2013 is the year of the snake, which seems appropriate from a UK perspective, as a low-level undulating crawl and a zig-zagging GDP profile look likely – with a triple-dip a strong possibility. At a Eurozone level, actions of central bankers have stabilised the debt crisis (OMT has avoided eurozone OMG!) and the threat of a eurozone break-up may have receded. But, the eerie financial market calm is at odds with incoming economic data. Meanwhile, elections in Italy & Germany will either help or hinder Eurozone fiscal integration. More widely, with all economies seeking to export their way out of trouble, ‘Currency Wars’ will be a key theme in 2013.
With regard to Northern Ireland, the UK is experiencing its weakest economic recovery in 100 years, which impacts upon performance and prospects locally. In 2013, the prospect of Northern Ireland escaping recession in its technical sense is probably 50:50. Any growth or further contraction is expected to be marginal. Talk of a recovery will be confined to economic anoraks and will refer to a ‘spreadsheet recovery’ rather than one that translates into a sustainable increase in consumer spending and wider consumer confidence.
Beyond this year, 2014 is the year of the horse. Those at the reins of the global economy will have a difficult task that year too, but assuming they aren’t flogging a dead horse, they should be able to get the economy off the ground and aim for a canter, if not a gallop. But there are plenty of fences to jump before we get there.This lecture will provide an overview of what's happening within financial markets and the various economies. Furthermore, an assessment will be made of the economic challenges that we face at a global, international, national and regional level.

2. Introduction and Summary
The financial environment is challenging across Eastern Europe. In Romania, we have seen lower
capital inflows, lower consumer confidence and higher delinquency over the last 3 years
In such an environment, the consumer credit providers can use data analytics, to identify value
creation strategies
EFG Group in Romania has been using data analytics across the entire cycle of consumer
lending, from targeting to underwriting, in customer service till collections & recoveries
Credit providers can develop their your own models/strategy; there is though great opportunity to
use external tools and data, mapped on their strategies
Key issue for success is top management buy-in; the key task of leadership in a consumer credit
provider is to create a culture where data analytics are embedded into the process of the firm
Extensive usage at EFG Group Romania has given our consumer credit operation a commercial
advantage, doubled net spreads since 2008, reduced roll rates and increased recoveries.

8. Data Analytics across the Credit Cycle have Defined a New
Business Model for EFG Romania
The benefits of using data analytics shifts the “blind mass approach” to “segmented approach” across the
credit cycle, from customer acquisition to collections.

9. The Romanian Credit Bureau Provides Valuable Info & Scores
Romania has a single Central Credit Bureau that contains data of ~98% of the banking system, both
negative and positive data. Since 2009, a behavioral scorecard has been developed by Fair Isaac
Corporation (FICO), adding a ranking tool in the existing available data (exposure of the customers,
payment behavior, demographic data)
In 2009, the Credit Bureau introduced an integrated behavioral scoring developed by Fair Isaac
Corporation, called FICO Score. Bancpost was one of the early adopters and implemented it as an
analytical tool to be used across the credit cycle.
The components on which the FICO
score is calculated:
5. Credit mix 10%
1. Payment
4. Pursuit of new
History 35%
credit 10%
3. Credit history
length 15%
2. Outstanding
debt 30%

10. Targeting
Bancpost has replaced common sense (judgmental) targeting with an approach based on developed
analytical tools. We studied the existing populations with the respective product based on the mix of
other products and their behavior, based on which the drivers that make an individual to be less risky and
more profitable have been identified.

Second phase: Review current line assignment process and criteria as the size of the line is the trigger for both revenue
and risk. In case of Amex and Visa portfolio the lines were not differentiated by risk of default (similar lines no matter the
risk) and current equation were reviewed
Results
More targeted approach towards both risk and revenue to provide rank-order of customers by profitability.
Logic was transferred and implemented into our systems, the prospects list is generated automatically and can be refreshed
on a continuous basis
Optimized line assignment, in order to maximize revenues and reduce risk

11. Underwriting – Risk Based Pricing (I)
As opposed to a standard approach used previously on all qualifying customers, a segmented approach
has been developed, aiming to reward the good behavior, and as well as to keep the net margin at the
same or higher levels.

13. Customer Service – Anti attrition
Bancpost developed an anti-attrition model for Amex Cards to replace the “common sense” approach of
proactively (through retention campaigns) or reactively addressing customers.
Categories of Variables for Propensity to Attrition Modeling
Based on:
• Customer Life Time
Transaction Data Value
• Probability of attrition
Customer Service Payments Data w/bank
• Spending pattern
• Utilization
Account Performance Retention Strategy Marketing Data
Clients are addressed
differently with and not only:
Application Data
Other relationships w/bank • annual fee waiver
• cash back
Credit Bureau Data
• lower interest
The model provides the client’s likelihood (%) to attrite and also the customer lifetime value (CLTV).

14. Collections - Early
The strategy for early collection shifted from time-based approach to a risk-based approach of the
delinquent customers; risk-rating per customer was derived from the Credit Bureau’s FICO score and
own Basel models.

Per each risk segment and bucket, different collection tools & actions are applied:

intensity of calls varies according to risk & bucket: lower buckets, higher intensity is applied for medium & high risk
accounts, while higher buckets low risk is treated with higher intensity;
different timeline is used in sending letters and text messages. 14

17. Conclusions
The financial environment is unfavorable to consumer finance across Eastern Europe
driven by lower capital inflows, lower consumer confidence and higher delinquency
since the crisis started in 2008
EFG Group in Romania has been using data analytics, and extensively data and scores
from the credit bureau, across the entire cycle of consumer lending, to identify value
creation opportunities
Extensive usage at EFG Group Romania has given our consumer credit operation a
commercial advantage, doubled net spreads since 2008, reduced roll rates and
increased recoveries.
