You’ll learn more about where consumers keep their money, and why and how they use their accounts across a variety of traditional, digital and prepaid options. The eBook also unearths how financial innovators can build a roadmap to a better financial future for everyone, including:
• Why consumers choose and switch financial providers;
• The correlation between provider satisfaction and consumer behavior; and
