Retail Bank Data-Mining Evolution

• As Retail Banks move from focusing on pushing
  products to managing customer relationships,
  their approach to data analytics has gone from
  being one dimensional to multi-dimensional
• The multi-dimensional nature of operating at a
  customer level has forced a more collaborative
  organization and common infrastructure to
  maximize customer value and experience in
  addition to shareholder value
• Certain lines of business by their very nature
  have been early adopters of analytics to drive
  revenue growth. The Commodity nature of
  businesses like Cards and HELOC have facilitated
  heavy data-mining to differentiate themselves in
  commodity markets
• Customer Centricity will best leverage economies
  of skill and scale derived from analytical
  platforms
• Methodologies, techniques and best practices have
  proven transferable to other retail finance
  products

Create A Phased Plan

• The vision is vital. It will avoid dump and
  runs.
• The phased plan is what you will sell to finance
  partners.
• Each phase should have positive ROI independent
  of all subsequent phases.
• All phases should add up to the vision.

16
Procure Executive Sponsorship

• Executive support is key because it
• Accelerates analytical growth by eliminating
  diversionary paths to growth.
• Mitigates risk of reaching dead-end terminal
  states.

III. Major Pitfalls
1. Top Ten Reasons EDM Projects Fail
22
Major Pitfalls

• Lack of Support at the Most Senior Levels of the
  Organization. No Mandate or Top Down driven
  approach to developing a EDM capability and lack
  of understanding of how it drives growth or
  enables the customer experience.
• Mistaking CIM/CRM or Data Warehouse initiative
  for a Technology project and not a business
  initiative.
• Not recognizing CRM/CIM as a separate discipline
  that includes marketing, risk, ops and IT skills
  but is also broader than any one of these.
• Not selecting the EDM head carefully. This is a
  demanding job that includes
• Budget oversight of such a large initiative. IT
  spend can get out of control.
• Broad expertise with technology, techniques
  (modeling, etc) and vision.

23
Major Pitfalls

• When companies assume that building the
  capability internally with IT is the only option
  when several ASP or hosted solutions may provide
  a better value equation and speed to market.
• Taking a Build it and they will come or Big
  Bang approach.
• EDM Projects need to include an End State/Vision.
  
• A Phased Implementation is always better. This
  can be done in several ways. By Subject Area, By
  Data Type, By Business Line etc.
• Decoupling the analytical areas who are the users
  from the database itself. Adoption is always
  quicker when both teams are together and
  learnings are self contained.

• Not defining any quick wins from the project.
• Holding EDM to a one year ROI. This is a
  long-run investment with major milestones and
  achievements along the way, but each phase will
  only pay off in 2-3 years.

25
Conclusions

• The customer centric nature of retail banking
  today is driving more complexity in management of
  data and more sophisticated business analytics
• Knowledge sharing and collaboration across
  geographies, lines of business and platforms is
  an important part of achieving this vision
• Optimization techniques can be a helpful tool in
  achieving the maximum return on customer
• Technology has increased response/activation and
  decreased the customer annoyance factor.
