Why Banks Can't Afford To Ignore Gen Yers

Understanding The Financial Needs And Behaviors Of The Young Consumer

by Ron Shevlin

with Catherine Graeber, Adele Sage

Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Banks don't believe that Gen Yers are where the action is. But those who ignore today's 18- to 28-year-olds do so at their own risk. These shortsighted banks are missing an opportunity to attract customers who cost less to serve today and have the potential to be more profitable and loyal customers in the future.
