Banks and credit unions have been accumulating technology tools to better understand people, track transactions, and communicate with more precision.
But the goal of a singular relationship with each consumer cannot be realized if employees have to negotiate with colleagues in different departments for a report or data access.
And from the consumer side, it doesn’t feel connected if they’re receiving offers for a mortgage they already have, or a customer service employee is unaware of their pending loan application.
