Retail Banking Masterclass

Growing retail revenue while cutting cost — distribution, marketing and productivity strategies drawn from retail banks worldwide and tailored to your market.

The programme

Retail banks are being asked to do two things at once: grow revenue and cut costs — while digital-era distribution channels rewrite how customers reach them. This masterclass draws on the experience of retail banks around the globe, tailored to your own markets, and is deliberately practical: examples and working ideas, not theory. The programme covers what the global financial crisis and the growth of alternative channels have done to revenue opportunities, product development and customer requirements — and the marketing, distribution and productivity strategies leading retail banks use in response. The cohort leaves with actionable ideas, innovations and plans for their own institution.

What you will do

Lift sales performance across every distribution channel, with techniques proven in leading retail banks.
Reset growth and revenue plans for the post-crisis market, across product development and customer requirements.
Adapt the marketing and distribution strategies of leading retail banks, to the changing needs of your customers.
Drive cost efficiency and productivity, by building an environment where customers buy more of your products and services.
Turn digital-channel disruption into a distribution plan, rather than a threat to the branch network.

Who attends

  • Heads of retail banking
  • Regional, branch and general managers
  • Heads of marketing and marketing managers

Cohorts bring together board members, executives and the rising leaders behind them — kept deliberately small, so every seat is a peer’s.

Frequently asked

Who is the Retail Banking Masterclass designed for?

It is designed for heads of retail banking, regional, branch and general managers, and heads of marketing and marketing managers — leaders who are being asked to grow revenue and cut costs at the same time.

Is the masterclass theoretical or practical?

Deliberately practical: examples and working ideas, not theory. It draws on the experience of retail banks around the globe, tailored to your own markets, and the cohort leaves with actionable ideas, innovations and plans for their own institution.

What does the programme cover on digital channels?

It examines what the growth of digital-era alternative distribution channels — alongside the global financial crisis — has done to revenue opportunities, product development and customer requirements, and how to turn that disruption into a distribution plan rather than a threat to the branch network.
