Competition is keen within financial services as banks big and small plus fintech disruptors vie with member-owned credit unions for wallet share and consumer’s hearts.
In this rapidly changing environment, how can the leaders of the industry’s most successful credit unions turn to determine how their institutions are faring? By benchmarking.
Callahan’s benchmarking tools empower savvy credit unions to measure their performance against individual institutions, state and asset-based peers, and build-it-yourself peer groups defined via hundreds of criteria. In addition, curious credit unions can easily establish a broad view of the industry or drill down into custom-made comparison groups defined by multiple criteria, including asset size, fields of membership, geography, or even mobile app providers.
The following six comparisons capture varying business models and operating resources based on asset size. Although the industry average is a useful general point of comparison, gauging performance against institutions with similar resources and other attributes makes for more meaningful evaluations.
