Segmentation: A Critical Imperative
What is Segmentation? “The subdividing of a market into distinct subsets of customers, where any subset may conceivably be selected as a target market to be reached with a distinct marketing mix” Philip Kotler, Northwestern University

Why is Segmentation Critical?
Segmentation: A Critical Imperative Why is Segmentation Critical? Enables the firm to design a strategic marketing plan that more precisely meets the needs of the customer in a specific market segment Determines resource allocation (i.e., In which markets should we compete?)

Review of Student Perspectives of Bank Segmentation Strategy

Perspectives of Bank Segmentation
Brief Review of 2016 Class Case: Students’ Reflections on Current Bank Segmentation Strategy First year students were asked the following questions regarding their bank’s segmentation strategy: How clearly defined and delineated are your bank’s customer segments? On what variables are the bank’s customers generally segmented (e.g., geographically, demographically, behaviorally)? What are the major segments? Do you believe your bank is consciously evaluating data/trends to identify existing and/or growing segments? Is the bank missing out on some segment opportunities? Is there a solid understanding of the differing behaviors, needs and desires of these segments by bank management?

Current Bank Segmentation Strategy
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation Current Bank Segmentation Strategy 3. How relevant is the growing millennial population to your bank’s customer base? Is there a significant variance in the bank’s customer base in terms of consumer digital banking usage at this time? Is your bank effectively adapting their market offering to deliver value to both heavy and light digital banking segments?
20
How Clearly Defined and Delineated are Your Bank’s Customer Segments?
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation How Clearly Defined and Delineated are Your Bank’s Customer Segments? 73 out of 78 responses stated that customer segments were clearly defined and delineated. Segments were generally based on demographics, consumer behaviors & product type. “The consumer segments at PNC have historically been separated into four groups. Mass, Upper Mass, Mass Affluent, and Wealth. Household income levels, which I believe is determined by geographical locations and income data by zip code, have been a determining factor for segmentation.”
21
How Clearly Defined and Delineated are Your Bank’s Customer Segments?
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation How Clearly Defined and Delineated are Your Bank’s Customer Segments? “Citibank is currently coming out with a new segment strategy to redefine our target customers. Primarily, customers are segmented by deposit and investment balances to determine which banking package fits their needs the most, but demographics and behavior also play a big role. There are three major segments - Citibanking, Citi Priority, and Citigold. Citibanking is our mass market package, Citi Priority is for Emerging Affluent, and Citigold is for Affluent clients.”
22
How Clearly Defined and Delineated are Your Bank’s Customer Segments?
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation How Clearly Defined and Delineated are Your Bank’s Customer Segments? “The bank's customer segments are delineated relatively clearly, by occupation. The primary segment is the market of the parent company's (TIAA) participants, or individuals who serve primarily in the academic, medical, governmental, cultural and research institutions. “There has been some discussion on segmentation by customer life stage, as follows: (1) 'dollar stretchers,' or those just starting out, (2) 'life builders,' or those who are beginning to save for various goals, (3) 'accumulators,' who earn enough to live comfortably and to accumulate assets, (4) 'transitioners,' or those who are preparing for retirement and (5) 'established,' those who feel generally prepared for retirement.”
23
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation
Is Your Bank Evaluating Trends to Identify Segments? Is the Bank Missing Out on Segment Opportunities? “I do believe we are consciously evaluating the changing segments, but we are struggling with sophistication in both data and delineation. We seem to be missing most on customer segments that are strictly online users as a result of our agency model, and I can't help but wonder if that is also putting us at odds with the younger generations.” “Our understanding of customer behaviors is robust, but understanding how those behaviors will correlate with purchases, product preferences, and servicing needs has proven much harder for our management than I would have guessed.”
24
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation
How Relevant is the Growing Millennial Population to your Bank’s Customer Base? “The millennial population is extremely relevant to Bank of the West. This rapidly growing customer segment influences decisions in regards to capital expenditures to enhance the bank’s digital platform and staffing in branches. Millennials are more inclined to use digital channels than customers of different generations.” “The bank is proactively focusing on users of the bank’s technology and is preparing to launch the “Digital Ambassador Program”; an initiative designed to drive customer and team member adoption of digital channels.”
25
Perspectives of Bank Segmentation
How Relevant is the Growing Millennial Population to your Bank’s Customer Base? “The Millennial's have greatly impacted the way Union Bank does its business and how it plans for the future. Bank wide, transactions within the traditional brick-and-mortar branches are dropping substantially as a result of technology and consumer/business trends.” “Union Bank is in a great position to align its customers needs with improved technology and access. Digital Adoption is at the forefront of our long-term strategy and within the coming year, great advances will be seen in most of our branches and with most of our products.”

What are the major consumer segments for the bank? Is the bank decidedly targeting and interacting effectively with these various consumer segments with different products, promotion, pricing and distribution?
