TAKING ACTION

Taking action: What should banks do?


Banks will need to manage the co-existence of
both client groups for the foreseeable future;
these tactics can help make the Naïve more
Native

01
HIGHLIGHT THE HUMAN COST
While there is generally a solid financial case for adopting Native services, many
Naïve clients are unable to garner support for the change based on numbers
MAKE IT REAL alone. Helping clients understand the human cost (time, pain) associated with
legacy products (especially for executives) can jump start change.
(for key decision makers)
HELP CLIENTS HELP OTHERS
Clients generally dislike checks and cash, but they continue using both because
their customers and partners are not willing to adopt electronic payments.
Clients are willing and able to run campaigns, educating holdouts on the
benefits of adopting new electronic payments, but will benefit from their bank’s
support.

02
SUPPORT CLIENTS
Given customizations, antiquated processes and outdated, poorly integrated
systems, adopting new solutions can entail significant uncertainty and effort.
STRIVE FOR EASY Providing skilled technical resources who can support clients as they design
and implement new services can encourage them to take the next step.
(for Native service adoption)
REDUCE IMPLEMENTATION EFFORT
Most budget for change/improvement is allocated to internal projects (e.g.,
finance systems consolidation), leaving limited funds available for implementing
new services from banks. Offering products that can easily integrate with
common TMS/ERP systems can help make these projects affordable for clients.

03
START WITH THE USE CASE
Banks are eager to roll out new technologies, but often run into a wall of low
demand. By starting with client needs, banks can develop and sell services that
BUILD AROUND enable clients to achieve their goals and transition in the direction of Native
options (e.g., debit cards for payroll).
NEEDS
(not products) ADD END-TO-END SELF-SERVICE
While Native clients demand self-service as table-stakes, even Naïve clients
have areas where they are willing to self-serve (but are blocked by doing so
because their bank doesn’t offer the option). Expanding self-service options
can be an effective nudge (as long as it doesn’t come at the expense of live
options).

TAKING ACTION

Banks who invest and position for the future


now are positioned to be the differentiators and
grow their Treasury Management business

LEGACY • Legacy products are here to stay for at least the next five years
• Banks should focus on lowering the cost to serve these solutions
PRODUCTS (e.g., wholesale lockbox) through technology

NAÏVE TO NATIVE • Naïve clients will likely make the leap if you give them the chance
• Cultivate new products in a client-centric way and teach the sales and
service teams to recognize opportunities in a consultative way

BANKS AS TECH • Native clients expect banks to be technology companies


• Restructure the product, sales, and service operating model to
COMPANIES enable technical consultation via pods/teams, while maintaining a
client relationship lead

VALUE-BASED • Treasury management products and services will evolve to be driven


by value vs. straight-line fee based
REVENUE • Start organizing data services and value-add now to solution sets so
products generate insights

INVESTMENT • Investment decisions need to be made considering a portfolio


approach
APPROACH • Manage treasury innovation across a mix of core, adjacent, and
transformational opportunities using an approach such as the
