A global financial institution headquartered in Europe has collaborated with Moody's to enhance its wealth management operations. The bank, known for its comprehensive services including investment banking and retail banking, sought to improve its lead generation and client profiling through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics.

The competitive landscape in wealth management is pushing banks towards fee-based models, requiring them to differentiate themselves. To maintain a competitive edge, the bank aimed to proactively seize opportunities and target new client sources while enhancing client profiling. The challenge was leveraging AI and data effectively without compromising client satisfaction or return on investment (ROI).

Previously reliant on manual processes for lead generation, the bank faced inefficiencies that were addressed by integrating Moody’s entity and news data. This integration allowed the bank to automate lead routing using Moody’s Orbis ID linked to their internal systems. Automation removed bottlenecks, improving operational efficiency significantly.

Additionally, the bank expanded its global news monitoring capabilities with more relevant publications, enabling it to identify liquidity events—key moments when clients are most receptive—more effectively. This approach allowed relationship managers (RMs) to engage clients meaningfully by understanding their financial landscapes better.

Through enriched customer profiles and expanded news data integration, RMs could tailor personalized financial solutions more accurately. This strategic move facilitated targeted cross-selling within the bank's extensive service offerings, particularly benefiting the investment banking sector.

The systematic centralization of curated leads reduced time-consuming manual research processes for RMs, aligning with the bank's goals of leveraging technology for operational efficiency while maintaining high client satisfaction levels.

Implementing Moody’s data solutions led to significant improvements in lead generation and client profiling for the bank. The use of AI in wealth management demonstrated the institution's commitment to innovation and efficiency, ultimately enhancing ROI and client satisfaction.
