Neobanks: Banking on the Digital Experience
Using modern technology and unhindered by legacy systems, neobanks are becoming part of the landscape.
Boston, November 30, 2017 – The digital revolution in retail banking has given rise to a proliferation of digital-only banks—neobanks. Whether independent startups or digital spin-offs of existing banking groups, neobanks have differentiated their offering from that of traditional banking by focusing on the customer experience. But can neobanks independently scale, build a profitable banking business, and remain independent? Or will they find themselves absorbed by incumbents?
This report overviews the current neobank landscape, examines neobanks’ value proposition, and defines various categories of neobanks, the business models and strategies they deploy, and the criteria for success. It is based on Aite Group interviews with executives from 18 leading organizations, including neobanks, traditional banks, and technology providers of the banking industry, from June 2017 to October 2017.
