Banks today are under pressure to deliver more personalised, relevant and trustworthy experiences. As digital banking adoption accelerates, customer expectations are shifting towards real-time, contextual engagement across the entire customer journey.
In this episode, of the Deep Banking Podcast, we explore how banks can build trust, increase loyalty, and embed banking seamlessly into customers’ daily lives through personalisation and AI-driven engagement.
Hosted by Martin Frick, CEO of Moneythor and guest starring, Subrato Bhattacharya, Head of Product Strategy and Management at TCS BaNCS. Together, they explore how the role of banks is evolving, from transactional service providers to deeply embedded partners in customers’ daily lives.
At the centre of this shift is trust, not just as a brand attribute, but as a measurable driver of loyalty, engagement, and long-term growth. Despite increasing competition, trust in financial institutions remains strong. According to Qualtrics’ 2025 Consumer Trends Report, 73% of consumers still trust their financial institutions, with only a marginal decline year-on-year.
But trust is no longer a given – it must be continuously earned through every interaction.

Banks that succeed will be those that:

- Anticipate customer needs and act proactively
- Embed themselves seamlessly into customers’ financial and lifestyle journeys
