“Over the next 15 years we will see the Millennial segment
become the most profitable demographic group for banks
around the world. However, Millennials are driving interactions
and demanding engagement in a manner never before seen in
financial services and it is therefore critical that any financial
services organisation that wants to succeed in the long term,
acts to align itself from a customer engagement perspective
with what will shortly become the norm.”
