Complete CFSI Underbanked Consumer Study Now Available for Purchase

The Center for Financial Services Innovation (CFSI) has now made available the complete CFSI Underbanked Consumer Study. This study was co-sponsored by noted industry leaders – Citi, H&R Block, Fidelity National Information Services, and MasterCard. CFSI and these sponsors commissioned Experian Simmons to conduct a national segmentation analysis of underbanked consumers according to their attitudes, behaviors, preferences, needs and experiences.

The CFSI Underbanked Consumer Study delivers the first granular market data on these consumers, defining eight distinct segments, and revealing new and in some cases surprising information about customer preferences and attitudes. More specifically, within each eight underbanked consumer segments, information regarding market segment size, propensity for financial products, desired marketing and communication approaches, financial service experiences, and demographic trends has been evaluated to create market segment descriptions critical for the successful development and implementation of products, marketing and distribution, and risk management strategies targeted towards the underbanked consumer.  To view previously released data from the study, click here.
