Corporate Client Relationship Management (CRM) & Customer Centricity Masterclass

Running a corporate banking network on customer lifetime value — segmentation, proactive relationship management, risk-adjusted pricing and the CRM machinery that makes it stick.

The programme

Most corporate banking networks lose money quietly: relationship managers react instead of anticipate, cross-sell stays flat, and price pressure fills the space where insight should be. This masterclass shows how to run the network on customer lifetime value instead. The cohort works through segmenting corporate customers by product and financing need, preparing calls that respond to what each client actually requires, and building innovative proposals that lift share of wallet and loyalty. It covers setting goals for branches and relationship managers, monitoring marketing campaigns, risk-adjusted product pricing, and measuring client and product profitability — plus the multi-channel, banking-specific CRM and sales-tracking machinery, and the regulatory requirements of compliant client onboarding.

What you will do

Segment corporate and SME customers by product and financing need, and match propositions to each segment.
Manage client relationships proactively, preparing calls that anticipate the different financial needs of each client.
Lift share of wallet and the cross-sell ratio through innovative proposals and product bundling.
Set goals for branches and relationship managers and monitor the success of marketing campaigns against them.
Price by risk and by segment, measuring client and product profitability rather than volume.
Align product specialists and corporate finance bankers with the corporate banking organisation.
Run compliant client onboarding, meeting regulatory requirements without losing the client on the way in.

Who teaches this

Practitioners, not presenters.

Led by practitioners who hold, or have held, the seats this programme prepares you for: group treasurers and heads of asset–liability management, chief risk officers, heads of credit and capital management, and former central-bank supervisors who examined the very frameworks they now teach. Between cohorts the same people advise banks on those frameworks, so what you learn is what is being defended in front of boards and regulators today.

What the bench brings

  • Commercial and corporate banking process design
  • SME banking: organisation, products and credit
  • Digital and agency banking, channels and payments
  • Product development and financial marketing
  • Bancassurance and multi-channel distribution
  • Branch network performance and leadership

Where they have practised

Current and former practitioners — people who hold the seat today alongside those who have held it.

Sectors: Banking & financial services · Technology & fintech · Insurance

Regions: Africa · the Middle East · Europe · Asia · the Americas

How they teach

  • Live case studies from real institutions
  • Worked exercises on realistic bank data
  • Regulator-style challenge sessions
  • Group problem-solving on realistic institutional cases
  • Knowledge checks and a personal action plan

Cohorts are kept small so every exercise is worked on the participants’ own situations — in person or live virtual.
