Abstract

Personal banking is no longer a market exclusively occupied by banks. Major insurance companies, such as Prudential (which formed the subsidiary online bank Egg), Norwich Union and Legal & General, have started to compete with high-street banking names for personal loans, savings and mortgages. The supermarkets are also significant competitors — Tesco Personal Finance has over 2 million customers, and Sainsbury's Bank is close behind.

Although consumers are being offered basic banking services from an ever-growing range of providers, the banks have broadened their reach. The major insurers may have attempted to take a slice of the retail banks' profits with their new ventures, but the banks have responded by aggressively entering the insurance market, where they have made considerable inroads. Banks are now engaged in a multitude of markets — in addition to providing current and saving accounts, loans and mortgages, they have developed as investment managers, insurers and pensions providers. They have become much more than just banks — they are financial-services organisations aiming to provide their customer with a one-stop-shop for all their financial needs.

Whether this will continue to be the case, however, remains to be seen. 'Bancassurance', which refers to the provision of insurance alongside other banking services, may have been the strategy of choice until 2002. However, current trends suggest an alternative route. All sectors of the personal banking market are facing margin pressure, due to the large number of competitors. As a response, joint ventures, which exploit the expertise of insurers as product manufacturers and the skills of the banks as distributors — while minimising the risks to both — are likely to rise in prominence. This assessment covers the market, focusing primarily on the UK.
