Loomery x Financial Services
Realise your digital potential, when everything is changing
Brands our team have worked with:
Loomery’s expert product teams help you thrive amid uncertainty.
For financial services, the pandemic has spurned a decade’s worth of modernisation in months. However, we’ve heard from leaders across banking, insurance and investments that many of those changes were temporary fixes to long term challenges.
In a series of interviews with financial technology leaders we heard a common set of challenges. To help guide your thinking, we’ve posed a few strategic questions that you should be grappling with in your technology, product and customer experience teams.
Product challenge:
“We’ve achieved feature parity with competitors, but it hasn’t moved the needle”
Delivering a product with all the ‘expected’ features does not guarantee a great experience, nor success.
Are you clear how the experience you’re delivering is truly different?
Team challenge:
“Our teams are working just how they did in the office, at home, but we’re moving slower”
How our teams work will never be the same. We’ve been getting by, moving our ‘in office’ thinking and processes home.
How are you ensuring your teams have appropriate tools and processes to win?
Service challenge:
“Our customers are self-serving from home but cost-of-service has increased!”
Segmentations be damned, customers have all had to get by with newly digitised services, ID checks over video call and cheque scanning.
Some customers have thrived, but many are struggling. How are you supporting those who need extra help?
Proposition challenge:
"Our customers have new financial needs and we’re not changing our product fast enough”
After a year like no other, customers are rethinking what they do with their lives. Retirement plans have changed, younger customers are working from the beach in Bali.
How are your products helping people get creative with how they live?
Technology challenge:
“We been fully focussed on the core, and haven’t invested in exploring new technologies”
All the effort to keep the show on the road means not enough going on the near and next horizons.
What’s your strategic position for a decentralised, distributed future? How does your service appear in the metaverse(s)?
