US bank might include over 2,000 mobile
deposits, more than 80,000 mobile logins,
and upwards of 50,000 money-moving

Three key challenges complicating digital channel leadership
and technology strategy
Digital engagement has expanded.
Interactions have expanded into a diverse array of new digital services and line of
business —from online banking, to mobile payment processing, to robo-advisors for
wealth management, and beyond.
Customer relationships are increasingly fragmented.
FinTech's are addressing the specialized needs of many different customer segments.
The role of the digital leader has evolved.
There are more areas of digital customer experience to manage than ever,
complicating alignment and collaboration.
