Australia Retail Banking - Customer Personas
The key customer personas in the Australian retail banking sector are Boomer, Generation X, Younger Generation X, Younger Generation Z, and Younger Millennials.
Boomer: She is a loyal customer looking to build her savings as she approaches her retirement. She wants to ensure she has enough money saved to be financially independent without the monthly income she used to have when working. Susan values banks that already have an established reputation, and this her primary reason for preferring to bank with traditional providers. Furthermore, she values branch services, as she prefers to use them for most of her banking needs, which digital-only banks are unable to provide.
Generation X: She is a mother who is looking forward to ensuring financial security and education for her children. Saving for the future and security during retirement are the most important life goals for Generation X. She suffered a health issue two years ago and has become more concerned about her health. She feels as though more planning is needed in her financial life for future security. She feels traditional banks currently provide more customer-focused services and, as a customer who is currently happier with her digital experience, doesn’t feel that banking with a digital-only bank will improve the digital functionality she already has with her traditional bank.
