Predictive
Research
Predictive research is typically quantitative research that predicts how
markets, buyers or specific financial institutions will change in response
to market trends or new product introductions. We distinguish this from
future studies, which are more qualitative in nature.
A few of our Recent Studies (excluding technology acceptance):
-> Student Loans - Uptake and Payback
-> Emergency Preparedness in Financial Matters
-> Impact of Financial Institution Mergers
-> Outsourcing Banks Find Client Service Improved
->
Global Trade Outsourcing |

Student Loans – Uptake
and Payback
This in-depth analysis
looks at users of student loan programs
compared to their cohort, as well as the
factors that affect the progress of
repayment of their loans. This is a
longitudinal study relying on a mix of
databases, which reflect the background and
experience of millions of borrowers over the
years, as well as the impact of changes in
borrowing policy.
Emergency Preparedness in Financial
Matters
This qualitative study looks at
potential consumer reactions to the
failure of three different kinds of
financial institutions. It identifies a
range of public expectations in the
aftermath of a financial failure, as
well as assessing public perceptions of
potential failure for different kinds of
financial institutions.
Impact of Financial Institution Mergers
As governments scrutinize financial institution mergers, they wonder what is
best for their country. The two key questions seem to be “What types of
mergers most benefit domestic consumers?” and “What types of mergers help
build the country’s ability to compete internationally?” Since politicians
are often guided by a mix of national opinion leaders and informed local
public opinion, we set out to understand what these groups think about FI
mergers.

Outsourcing
Banks Find Client Service Improved
According to our recent global study of trade outsourcing for ABN-AMRO,
well over half of banks that are outsourcing their trade services find that
the service to their clients improved as a result of outsourcing.
Profitability and expense ratio improvements also exceeded expectations.
With over 20% of small-mid size banks (assets of $6-100 billion) planning to
outsource some of their trade services to an insourcing bank over the next
two years, quality improvement should be the reason for their choice rather
than just the cost savings they think about initially.
Global Trade Outsourcing
The study deals with the current state of outsourcing, changes over the past
two years and likely changes over the next two years. Topics covered
include: services outsourced, market size and volume, impact of outsourcing,
service delivery and the image of major insourcing banks.
