Building the Digital-First Branch of The Future 2021 | Aite-Novarica Group | 12 October 2021 | Webinar Event

Besides digital, one of the hottest topics of the year is branch transformation. While the last 20 months have forced banks to invest more in digital-first customer engagement capabilities, branches are reopening and inching closer to near pre-pandemic levels. Consumers indicate they prefer to talk to a human for more complex banking activities and that may push some consumers back to the branch. But many consumers still plan to use digital banking for many banking activities post-pandemic. All of this is accelerating the need to inject human help into the digital channels. While many FIs were on a path to explore how to transform the role of the branch, the need to provide access to human help in a digital-first environment creates a bigger need to transform the role of the branch. What does this mean for branches and how should banks plan their customer engagement technology investments?
