Mobile Banking Updates - Aug 22
Gilt’s new chief operating officer ran mobile banking at Citibank
"Gilt Groupe Inc., No. 54 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, has hired web banking executive and former Barnes & Noble Inc. vice president Tracey Weber as chief operating officer. Her responsibilities include Gilt City, which sells discounted tickets and services in several major cities, along with customer service, merchandise planning and other areas, including what the e-retailer calls “several new strategic initiatives.” She reports to CEO Michelle Peluso, who took over as chief executive late last year."
Mobile Devices Burying Banks in Data
"Banks have long struggled to make sense of the reams of customer data they collect across product lines. The rise of mobile banking is making this task even harder. The industry now has a litany of new data points to process. How many customers interact with their bank via the web browser on the mobile devices compared to those who use an app? How frequently do customers log into a bank account through their smartphones? How much time do they spend there? Are consumers completing the tasks they set out to do on their mobile phones or tablets, or are they giving up in frustration?"
Today's Mobile Banking Apps: Table Stakes or Cutting Edge
"There is no disputing that the U.S. mobile banking landscape is changing rapidly. Larger banks are setting the stage for broader market trends, while smaller banks (and even some regional players) play catch up in the development of new functionality. What are some of the top U.S. banks doing that is innovative and what has quickly become table stakes in a game of mobile app one-upsmanship? And is mobile banking innovation becoming a value-added differentiator that can drive new revenues?"

Brick-and-mortar branches still main source of business: bankers
"Brick-and-mortar branches are still the main source of business for banks and will continue to service a bulk of their customers, despite the emergence of alternative channels such as the Internet and mobile banking, bankers said. Banks have quickened expansion in the last few years, opening 6,300 branches in 2012-13, up more than fivefold from 1,200 in 2005-2006, according to a study by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) released at the banking conference in Mumbai organized by the Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Ficci) and the Indian Banks’ Association (IBA)."

Mobile Banking Updates - July 18
Banks ‘galloping ahead’ to help you manage your money on mobile
"Most of us will not consider our bank to be a hotbed of innovation. But banks are toying with various open-source projects and are rapidly developing ways to help you manage and share money from a smartphone. “For an industry that has been tarred with the brush of being old-fashioned, banks have realized they need to innovate fast and are galloping ahead,” said Mark Curtis, chief client officer for Fjord, onstage today at VentureBeat’s MobileBeat 2013 conference."
Nina the mobile accessibility assistant
"I went to the opera last week with some friends; they bought the tickets and I paid for dinner. At the end of the evening I owed them over a hundred pounds (the opera was excellent but expensive!!). How was I going to pay them? I do not carry that much cash, nor would they want it. I do not carry a cheque book with me, nor would they want the hassle of paying it in. Ringing up the telephone banking service on my mobile would take too long, credit and debit cards could not help. My mobile banking app would do the trick but is fiddly, so I went home, logged on to my online banking system went through the menus and transferred the money."
Banno scores assist on success of New York firm’s first mobile banking app
"When New York-based Generations Bank launched its first mobile banking app in February, Cedar Falls startup Banno was there to help power it. The app, called mygenmobile, has since grown twice as quickly as projected, according to a Banno press release today. Banno partnered with Allen, Texas-based software company ProfitStars on the project—a familiar pairing as the two companies collaborated last year on ProfitStars' iPay Solutions platform."
Big Data Innovation in Banking
"As financial institutions grapple with evolving business landscapes and increased information demand, finding optimal ways to store, organize and monetize the ever-increasing crush of data they possess is of crucial import. How effectively banks can make better business decisions based on the so-called "big data" they process on a daily basis will be crucial for the industry going forward, said Andy Hirst, senior director of Industry Marketing for SAP. Hirst, speaking on big data innovation at the International SAP Conference for Financial Services this week, noted that banks are inundated with new sources of information constantly."
