With increasing customer expectations and pressure to reduce costs, financial services firms must transform into trusted customer service organizations focused on efficiency, relationship development, and customer loyalty.
What makes a financial institution trustworthy?
The four key factors that drive trust can help to elevate your brand, improve employee and customer experience, and establish the foundation for future growth.
Empower customer support teams to treat customers with empathy and respect. Recognize customers’ needs and make them feel valued regardless of background, identity, or beliefs.
Regularly improve the quality and benefits of your products and services. Make clear efforts to protect customer information by proactively responding to and reporting on security threats and incidents.
Consistently deliver products, services, and experiences that meet customer expectations. Resolve issues in an adequate and timely manner. Make it easy for customers to get support through their preferred channels.
Clearly communicate what products, features, and services customers can expect from you and be transparent about financial practices. Ensure that all fees and costs are clear and upfront and make it easy for customers to choose between options.
Trust is a powerful driver of business outcomes. Highly trusted companies outperform their peers by up to 400% in market value. Customers who trust your brand are more likely to choose your products and services and share them with others. Employees who trust your brand are more motivated and loyal. But in a time when trust in brands and organizations is at or near historic lows (Gallup), some financial institutions find themselves struggling to build trust among customers and prospects. In today’s increasingly digital and AI-driven world, establishing trust is even more crucial.
