Study: Millennials Value Financial Education, Guidance and Mobile Account Access from Their Financial Services Providers
A follow up to The Millennial Shift study from
"To succeed with Millennials, firms must recognize and respond to their need for financial education and guidance, and their demand for mobile account access,"
Some industry trends and tactics reviewed in Millennials Revisited include:
- Banking: Banks continue to invest heavily in their mobile experience, recognizing that this is the key channel for engaging Millennials.
- Credit Card Issuers: Card issuers are integrating credit scores, spending analysis and other capabilities into their digital offerings to target younger consumers.
- Insurers: Property and casualty insurers are experimenting with new product design and pricing strategies to accommodate Millennials' preferences and budgets. Life insurers are offering simplified, digital applications to make it easier for Millennials to purchase policies.
- Investing/Wealth Management: Leading brokerage firms like Charles Schwab,
E*TRADE and Fidelity have rolled out low-cost digital advice offerings to connect with Millennials and defend against fintech startups targeting them.
- Retirement: DC plan providers have made significant improvements to their mobile offerings but may be missing the mark by focusing on mobile-optimized and responsive designed sites rather than native apps.
