Capital One has focused on the customer experience for its corporate customers, an emerging trend that Celent sees gaining significant traction across corporate banking.
The project has succeeded in making information more accessible, more quickly. Capital One intends to take the lessons learned from this first of a kind initiative in natural language interface for corporate banking to discover what customers will like and use.
"A willingness to 'build or buy' gives Capital One a great deal of flexibility as it rolls out new technology; more banks are adopting this open-minded approach," commented Daniel Latimore, Senior Vice President of Celent's Banking practice.
"Taking incremental steps won't yield massive successes, but neither will it produce embarrassing failures. Smaller experiments will instead give Capital One a robust set of insights that they can use to build the next set of offerings," he added.
