Workshop scope and objectives
               …plan of approach

 The ATM has been the subject of much research, major
  developments by market leaders and a wide variation in the
  types and sophistication of current models.

 We’ll look at case studies, market developments, key issues,
  research and other insights.

 And then suggest a framework for a rational approach to the
  development and implementation of an ATM strategy… in an
  omni-channel operating environment.

                                                                 3

Suggested corporate challenges
       …for retail banking delivery
1.   The profitable development of key target retail
     segments – called in this workshop middle, mass
     affluent (eg: top 15%) and small business…

2. Cost effective servicing of the low value mass market

3. The profitable provision of payment and other
  financial services to the un(der)banked
                                                       5

  customers and two thirds in
  Canada considered their
relationship with their bank…

Key access issues up front!
            …a landmark document
These guidelines are still in play and cover:
 Access and site
 Location/layout of operating features
 Operating instructions
 Screen design
 Keypads
 Card swipe, insertion and withdrawal
 Outputs
 Security and privacy
                                                11
Access issues today (and tomorrow)
                 …some key points
Recent ATMIA research suggests the following:
 The scale of the issue is growing
 There is a need to understand all aspects of
  customer needs – and current inhibitors
 This must be matched by an appreciation of the
  solutions available to maximise accessibility
 Board-level interest should be managed by a well
  resourced accountable senior executive
 The search for further improvements should continue
  – including monitoring new developments
                                                  12

A smart approach to studying customers and channels
has revealed some valuable insights – more later…

                                                              17

(Footnote: Internet access in India has increased from 100m in 2010 to an estimated 500m in 2017)

                                                                                            19
ICICI Bank, India
                …the role of the ATM

 The proximity of a branch and an ATM are still the top
  two factors influencing the choice of bank in India
 The bank operates three categories of ATM
     - the conventional types of machines
     - a micro-ATM in its ‘digital villages’ project
     - a very lightweight machine in its new branch-on-
       wheels (less than a quarter of the usual weight)
 Geospatial tools are used for ATM network planning
  as well as for branches
                                                      20
ICICI Bank, India
       …the ‘Touch Banking’ branch

    Palm of Your Hand” for over 8 years – no PIN
                                                     22
Signposts for the ATM’s future
        …which of these is it to be?
 Cash payments continue to grow and the ATM
  remains the key source… +ve
 Increased functionality (+250) further enhances its
  ability to be a branch-substitute… +ve
 The 4 million mark (per RBR) is reached but after that
  growth plateaus… ???
 The growth in digital payments accelerates and the
  demand for cash reduces materially… -ve
 Branch closures accelerate and that also impacts the
  growth of ATM networks … -ve
 It inhibits the capacity to renew old machines … -ve

Key numbers
                                       …in the ecosystem
   The global estate of ATMs is forecast to grow to 4 million by end 2021     (RBR)

   Access to the internet is now 3.7 billion or 49% globally and growing
        - North America (88%)
        - Europe (77%)
        - Asia (45%)
        - Africa (28%)
                                                              (Internetworldstats)

   Mobile take-up is forecast to grow to 4.6 billion unique subscribers by 2020
        - 361 million in 2000
        - 3.6 billion in 2014
        - Each subscriber now has an average of around 1.8 SIM cards
                                                                         (GSMA)

ATMs and the digital branch
               …eg: Commerzbank

Commerzbank is a major German player with many
foreign interests including an innovative Polish
subsidiary and a new commitment to retail at home.
 Asset base of Euros 490 billion
 17.5 million customers – 11 million in Germany
 1,000 branches
 A recent Euros 1 billion investment in products,
  services and technology included…

                                                     26
Commerzbank, Germany
              …flagship branches
Two major branches in Berlin and Stuttgart brought
up to industry-leading standards…

                                                     27
And now, the return of the
                   …pop-up branch!

                                   29
Talking to the customer!
                …the value of video?

Albert Mehrabian is often quoted as saying in
1971 that…
 55% of meaning is communicated by body
  language – including facial expression
 38% by our tone or the way we say it

 7% by the words

Agree or disagree?
                                                30
Talking to the customer
      …beyond the cash transaction
 Early video teller machine benefits came from
  increased teller productivity, supporting
  customer use of self-service, extended hours
 Standalone video also had much success
  through making specialist staff available by a
  remote link to the branch eg: mortgage sales
 Both uses have seen success that justified its
  extension of into general customer service
 How might this all work for the ATM?
                                               31

 Differing delivery models, different roles

 Organising and managing successful strategies

                                                    32
Principal business models
                 …legacy and digital
 Branch-centric - the ATM extends reach and
  hours whilst also lifting work from the branch

 Call-centric – this model is increasingly digital
  and the role of the ATM is to provide local
  cash and non-cash transaction support

 Mobile-led – the ATM provides cash access
  although the model is seeking to build the
  proportion of payments that are non-cash         33
Disruptors and the ATM
                   …access to cash
 New players are operating through mobile-led
  models but still have to provide access to cash
 Evidence from the ATMIA and the USA
  continues to show high usage of cash even
  amongst the younger age groups
 Leading providers of challenger banking are
  using the smartphone or card… and the ATM
 ATMs also continue to work for beneficiaries of
  money transfer schemes eg: mPesa
 But for how long do they need the ATM?        34
Disruption
       …digital lowers the barriers?
 New players enter the market on a solus basis
 Or as partners
 Digital has lowered the barriers
 The best defence is a strong brand and good
  well-focused customer propositions
 Including a ‘best practice’ channels strategy
 And there is also a need to stay competitive
  which usually means creative as well
 What does this all mean for the ATM?

A definition of strategy!

“ the determination of the basic long term goals
and objectives of an enterprise, and the adoption
of courses of action, and the allocation of resources
necessary for carrying out these goals”.

Prof. Alfred Chandler – Harvard Business School

                                                   37
The objective?
        …why find the optimum mix

                  Target segment
                Product proposition
           Channel preference – customer
             Channel preference – bank
                  Optimised mix

                                           38
Customers and the ‘new’ channels
   …major underlying cost issues?
 New channels are not always taking over from old

 Customer like the multi channel offer but…
  - they don’t give up old channels (except call centres)
  - new channels grow transactions
  - and overall delivery costs can increase

 The experience of Wells Fargo Bank sheds light on
  the significance and value of a multi-channel
  proposition…
                                                        39
Wells Fargo Bank, USA
           …and customer intensity
When talking customer profitability & channels (2016)…
   Most customers prefer a mix along the continuum of self-
    service and personal service
   Research shows customers are more engaged when their
    banking relationship (channels) matches their preferences
   Aligning with customers’ preferences increases engagement
    and intensity
   Customer Intensity = channels used and transaction types
   Ultimately creating value for the customer and our business
   High versus low intensity        - 2.4x purchase rates
                                     - 24% higher retention
                                     - 1.7x profit per household 40
Customers say
   …it must be a joined-up process!

“Customers….. will no longer tolerate inconsistent
experiences across a financial institution’s delivery
channels”     (Tower Group & NCR)

How does your approach across ATMs etc work?

                                                        41
Coordinated interface management
       …for maximum effectiveness
If the value of the new technologies is to be maximised
the time has come to over-ride the silos! The customer
interface must now be managed on a coordinated
basis for all the devices in the mix…
   Legacy self-service including kiosks
   Digital television and digital advertising
   Mobile, tablets and pads and e-books
   Social media access
With a common…
   Image
   Brand
   Navigation
   Functionality (by device)
                                                      42
‘Staff’ competences for the ATM
                          …why not?
The following is adapted from material for staff
standards but could be used with the ATM?
  - Eye contact (where acceptable)
  - Recognition, smile and greeting! (why does eye contact come first?)
  - Courteous enquiry of the customer
  - Service fulfilment
  - The requirement beyond cash
  - Understanding the issue
  - Resolving the issue
  - Offering robo-advice, information and education
  - Sensitive cross-sell pitch (CRM driven)
  - Reconfirming that the customer’s business is valued
  - Discussing brand-related issues during the dialogue
  - Courteous and friendly parting
  - Care in the use of language
The customer-ATM dialogue justifies equal attention!                      43
Knowledge of the options
1        – ATMs and other devices
             The ‘to-be’ model
2     – focuses plans and commitment
     Managed, coordinated action plans
3             – sub projects
    Monitoring of emerging developments
4                  –R&D
     Introducing valuable new concepts
5              – when viable

                                          44
Transactions will be originated/prestaged by many
  different devices, which will also have video links

This could also disintermediate many ATM non-cash
  transactions – and could take over the VTM link

A recycling, reconfigured in-branch ATM might do no
   more than handle physical fulfilment – in or out

 Could it be that the TAU and next generation in-
branch ATM merge to become the same machine?

                                                        45
Video sales and service

       Avatars

    Digital screens

      Biometrics

 Signature recognition

      QR codes

          Etc

                          46
Nearly three quarters of US
  customers and two thirds in
  Canada considered their
relationship with their bank…

“merely transactional”!

(Accenture 2014)

                                47
Whatever the different scenarios
     …adopt ongoing best practice
Whatever the fate of the ATM, ongoing professional
monitoring and evaluation is required…
 To understand and apply best practice to ensure that the maximum benefits
