Unlock Actionable Data Insights for A Competitive Edge
Understanding the needs and behaviors of account holders is crucial for staying ahead of the competition. Data analytics in bankinghas become an essential tool for uncovering actionable insights, driving innovation, and optimizing services to meet evolving demands. By using clean, tagged data, data insightsprovide a comprehensive understanding of account holders, enabling personalized banking experiences, increasing deposits,improving card utilization and more.
The Challenge of Data Analytics in Banking
For the most part, regional and community financial institutions do not have data scientists on staff. For the choice few that do, one of the biggest challenges data scientists face is data preparation and cleansing. Studies indicate that data scientists spend about 40% of their time aggregating, standardizing, cleansing and categorizing datato prepare it for analysis, leaving less time for generating valuable insights. This is where Alkami's patented artificial intelligence-driven analytics come into play. Data analytics combines transaction insights with product adoption and usage data, offering financial institutions a deeper understanding of their account holders without the exhaustive time investment in data preparation.
Democratizing Banking Data
Alkami believes in democratizing banking data through a flexible data accessibility framework. Our digital banking platform provides a full suite of REST API endpoints, making it easy to integrate with existing tools, such as business intelligence platforms, customer relationship management (CRM) systems, and other account holder-facing tools within a financial institution's tech stack.
Personalized Banking Experiences
Today's account holders expect personalized experiences in every digital interaction. To meet these expectations, financial institutions need deep insights into account holders' life events and financial behaviors. Superior data analytics in banking combine core data with transaction data, providing a comprehensive view that allows for tailored digital interactions. By turning data analytics in banking into actionable promotions, financial institutions can deliver individualized recommendations at the right time, supporting relevant product adoption that will result in an account holder having a comprehensive financial portfolio.
Driving Deposit Growth
In a high interest rate environment, attracting more deposits is a priority for financial institutions. Data analytics in banking empower institutions to identify and target the most engaged account holders, those most likely to adopt new products and increase their deposits. By focusing outreach on these specific account holders that are showing intent, financial institutions can drive deposit growth more effectively. Understanding account holders' behaviors and preferences with insights derived from transaction data allows for outreach strategies to encourage money movement through deposit accounts.
Enhancing Card Utilization
When lending declines, financial institutions must find alternative sources of non-fee income. Promoting card utilization is one such strategy. Data analytics in banking can identify opportunities to increase card usage, such as encouraging account holders to use the institution's debit or credit card for subscription payments. For example, promoting the benefits of using a card for monthly cell phone bills to account holders who currently don't do so can capture more interchange revenue. This targeted approach ensures that the right message reaches the right audience, driving higher card utilization rates.
Achieving PFI Status
Achieving primary financial institution (PFI) status means being the go-to financial institution for account holders. Data insights can help financial institutions cross-sell with confidence, gaining more transaction accounts and savings deposits. By comparing the products account holders have with your institution against those they have with competitors, data insights can reveal intel that will help financial institution leaders build campaigns to win back share of wallet. This competitive intelligence is invaluable in crafting strategies that position the bank or credit union as the primary financial institution for account holders.
