Bank Business Focus

What can banks do to survive and thrive in today's uncertain economy? This important book has the answers. Retail Banking Technology reveals the tactics and strategies that banks, large and small, can use to realign their retail banking organizational structure. It explains how banks must make the transformation from passive, account-holding, transaction-processing institutions to aggressive, customer-focused, service-oriented organizations. Two essential components emerge in the analysis of this transformation - customers and information. The key to unlocking retail banking success and sustaining the richest payoffs of automation is a customer-driven focus on the identification, acquisition, and integration of information. The practical core of Retail Banking Technology is that bank technology must be perfectly pitched to the needs and expectations of the customer. Everything the bank of the 90s will do must serve or benefit the customer - at a profit to the bank. And these actions must capitalize on the recognition that integrated information - not blind computation - illuminates the most effective means of serving the customer - at a profit to the bank. Retail Banking Technology also covers these important topics: using technology to develop and differentiate bank products and services; integrating "enriched" customer information to facilitate cross selling, target marketing, and true relationship banking; the changing roles of DP, MIS, and bank technology experts; and recognizing how bank marketing and sales systems can serve to attract new customers and market share. Retail Banking Technology is packed with case studies as well as innovative uses of conventional technology andenhanced systems.

Twenty years ago, most banking courses focused on either management or monetary aspects of banking, with no connecting link. Since then, a microeconomic theory of banking has developed, mainly through a shift in emphasis from the modeling of risk to the modeling of imperfect information. This asymmetric information model is based on the assumption that different economic agents possess different pieces of information on relevant economic variables, which they will use for their own benefit. The model has been exptremely useful in explaining the role of banks in the economy. It has also been helpful in pointing out structural weaknesses of the banking sector that may justify government intervention - for example, exposure to runs and panics, the persistence of rationing in the credit market, and solvency problems. Microeconomics of Banking provides a guide to the new theory. Topics include: why financial intermediaries exist, the industrial organization approach to banking, optimal contracting between lenders and borrowers, the equilibrium of the credit market, macroeconomic consequences of financial imperfections, individual bank runs and systemic risk, risk management inside the banking firm, and bank regulation. Each chapter ends with a detailed problem set and solutions.
