King of the Hill - Mobile App Edition
Dave DeFazio, Partner, StrategyCorps

Right now, fintech disruptors are helping tech-savvy consumers reimagine banking tasks while enticing them with new places to keep their funds — instead of a checking account at your financial institution. The secret to improving your future deposit growth lies in understanding the changing role of banking products in the financial lives of today’s consumers. In this session, Dave will dive into ongoing research that explains these trends — including which mobile features matter most to each generation, from millennials to baby boomers. After this session, you will understand:

• How the growth of app-based payments and rewards are turning checking accounts into “paycheck motels.”
• How the trickle-down-effect of mobile banking is helping the biggest banks widen their lead against community banking institutions.
• How faster access to paychecks is evolving as a key banking feature in the gig economy.
• The newest tip-based pricing strategies for financial service products.
