"The most successful branching strategies not only take into account how
consumers will interact with the location but also how the type of branch and
operations will best serve the specific needs of current and future
customers," said Tom Tucker, EVP of Sales for IBT Enterprises. "While trade
area analysis, demographics and competitive information are important criteria
to consider, the first step is to clearly identify the specific mission of the
branch to effectively evaluate the appropriateness of each site."
Any financial institution considering an expansion project or is in the
process of expanding will benefit from the Art and Science of Branch Placement
webinar. Topics to be addressed include:
-- How demographics, trade area analyses and competitive information are
best used
-- Evaluating and matching site characteristics, available facility
options and formats to meet the needs of intended customers
-- Identifying and evaluating placement and branch considerations of
special importance to particular segments (e.g. the underserved, the
environmentally conscious).
