Qualitative and quantitative insights were obtained by interviewing supply-side and demand-side stakeholders during the primary research process. CEOs, Chief Digital Officers, leaders of Retail Banking, Chief Risk Officers, and leaders of product development from retail banks, neobanks, and banking technology providers comprised supply-side sources. Retail banking customers, small and medium enterprise (SME) owners, high net worth individuals (HNWIs), financial advisors, and procurement leads from corporate treasury divisions comprised demand-side sources.
Market segmentation was validated across banking services (savings accounts, current accounts, fixed deposits, personal loans, mortgages) through primary research. Digital transformation timelines were confirmed, and customer adoption patterns of mobile and online banking channels, pricing strategies for deposit and lending products, and regulatory compliance costs were surveyed.
