When decisions come down to the cost of compliance vs. the expense of customer satisfaction, customers always comes first – but if you get compliance wrong, there’ll likely be very few chicks hatching at all.
Across the banking and financial services industry, CRM has long been a standing agenda item in the boardroom, regarding speed to market; frictionless product reviews; enhanced customer experience and best-in-class servicing.
It has resulted in a multitude of technology tools and accelerators becoming prominent across the industry. Building-out growing and intuitive data sets to provide competitive sales insight and advantage, with direct customer interaction in order to maximise market share.
Then, the ultimate challenge. A seamless handover from CRM to CLM, to line up the final touches from a compliance perspective, and off you go – not quite. Closer to ‘out of the frying pan and into the fire’ – taking care that if your eggs aren’t already scrambled they soon could be.
Without labouring too long on the challenges of new Client Onboarding, complex and ever-changing regulatory requirements have resulted in all of the good work delivered across the CRM process being impacted – on certain occasions existing customer relationships are even needing to be rescued.
Standalone and agile CLM technology has gone a long way in smoothing out the KYC issue. In fact, you couldn’t do business without it and to keep pace with the competition – it has to be best-in-class. And, whilst ongoing investment in CLM has somewhat reduced the pain for new and existing customers of banks and institutions, the friction still exists within the boardroom.
Sales vs. Compliance, Front Office vs. Back Office, CRM vs. CLM – Us vs. Them.
What if there were tactical levers at your disposal that could bring these functions closer together?
