The JD Power Financial Protection Satisfaction Study assesses consumers' satisfaction with fraud prevention, monitoring, and resolution. It critically evaluates how financial institutions proactively address fraud and security concerns through in-person, digital, and contact center interactions.
This benchmarking study will answer the following:
- Do customers seek advice from their financial institution on safeguarding their accounts and personal information?
- Would advising on fraud make them feel more satisfied and trusting towards banks?
- How frequently do customers anticipate receiving updates on fraud-related issues?
- Do customers expect their banks to provide fraud-related information unrelated to their accounts, such as in a breach at another company?
Benefits
Experiencing fraud is a significant factor that can cause customers to switch financial partners. Banks and payment providers must communicate a sense of security to their customers and recognize the relationship between fraud incidents and customer satisfaction. The JD Power Financial Protection Satisfaction Study allows banks and payment providers to measure the effectiveness of security settings, fraud prevention and resolution programs.
