Retail is coming of age

Article Abstract:

Retail banking as an independent and equal component of the banking industry can only happen if management recognizes it as such. Current attitudes toward retail bank services serve to limit the effectivity of the banking segment to a supportive role only. To optimize its potential as an industry, retail banking needs appropriate management and marketing tools, an updated manangement information system and an upgraded customer base.
