  • Enabling 60% Faster Campaign Rollouts and 40% Cost Savings for a Global Bank with Dynamics 365 Customer Insights

Client

The client is one of the world’s largest banking and financial services organizations, serving millions of retail and corporate customers across 60+ countries. With a strong common equity tier 1 capital position and profit before tax of USD 7.3 billion in Q3 2025, the bank continues to prioritize efficiency, digital transformation, and sustainable profitability.

To strengthen marketing agility and ensure consistent customer engagement across markets, the bank sought to unify its fragmented data, campaign, and compliance systems through a single, enterprise-grade customer insights platform.

Market Trends in Banking and Financial Services

Global banking conditions in 2025 remain uneven as inflationary pressures, rate volatility, and sector-specific headwinds test profitability and cost discipline. While wealth and retail banking revenues stay resilient, margin compression and regulatory expectations continue to drive transformation toward intelligent automation, data centralization, and operational transparency.

To sustain growth and manage risk, leading banks are consolidating marketing and analytics ecosystems, investing in unified customer data platforms, and leveraging AI-driven insights to deliver compliant, personalized engagement at scale.

These dynamics underscore the need for integrated marketing and customer intelligence solutions that reduce duplication, accelerate time-to-market, and strengthen governance across global operations. This wave of consolidation is driving banking marketing transformation, as institutions centralize customer data and orchestration to meet compliance and personalization goals.

Business Challenges

Operating across multiple geographies and business lines, the client faced increasing complexity in managing marketing and customer data systems. The absence of a unified marketing ecosystem led to operational inefficiencies, compliance risks, and inconsistent customer experiences across markets. The client needed to modernize its marketing technology landscape to achieve global alignment, automation, and data-driven marketing effectiveness.

  • Fragmented tools increased operational costs: Separate systems for campaigns, lead management, and events created data silos and integration challenges, limiting visibility and driving up maintenance and licensing costs.
  • Regional disparities hampered global consistency: Localized tools and disconnected processes across markets made enforcing uniform branding, governance, and compliance standards difficult.
  • Compliance and security overhead grew: Each platform required separate certifications and audits, creating duplication and increasing the risk of non-compliance with regional data regulations.
  • Technical dependencies slowed marketing agility: Teams relied heavily on IT support for content updates, branding changes, and campaign execution, delaying go-to-market timelines.
  • Limited automation reduced marketing effectiveness: Manual workflows constrained real-time decision-making and hindered personalized engagement, impacting overall customer experience and return on investment (ROI).
