3 Ways to Improve Branch Performance with Workforce Optimization Strategies

Over the last few years, bank branches have experienced a significant amount of disruption and pressure. The behavior of banking customers has been a significant part of this, with many having shifted towards digital and mobile banking tools in recent years. 

The pandemic accelerated this trend, with a decline in routine banking transactions occurring inside of branches and mobile banking adoption skyrocketing. While only 43% of those in the U.S. with a smartphone were banking on their mobile devices in 2011, now that number has jumped to 71%.
