Review

BANK 2.0 represents a view of the future of bank retailing and channel strategies for the next decade. The fact that banks take so long to respond to these changes to the status quo means that any bank acting upon the key recommendations in this book will be a step ahead of the competition, and that surely is no bad thing. Now think what you could be if you acted upon all of the recommendations --Chris Skinner, Chairman, Financial Services Club

BANK 2.0 is informed by Brett King's analysis of trends in banking over many years... I've worked with Brett and I have seen some of the results; they explain why Brett is highly sought after as an authority on banking and how the industry is likely to evolve into the future. --Dr. Richard Petty, President, CPA Australia

Bank2.0 is exactly the kind of book finance and banking consultants need always sitting on their desks. There is a complete dearth of incisive research, factual data and engaging case studies that document the trends shaping the future of banking in Asia today and Bank 2.0 does an excellent job of plugging that gap. For people suffering a mental block about what the next steps in banking could be, this book offers fresh insights, for those wanting to know the pulse of the industry, this is it and for others like me who are deeply interested in the future of banking this serves as a bible. Another interesting feature is its strong Asia-centric focus with interesting case studies about iconic names such as HSBC and major lenders from mature Asian markets such as Australia, Japan and Hong Kong. I really hope Brett updates this version soon enough to take this definitive guide on banks future to the next level. Very informative and reads like a breeze. --Arush Chopra, Research Analyst, The Asian Banker, Singapore
