Abstract

The paper presents the results of a study on the determinants of customer satisfaction for a retail bank using the data of 2009 NCSI(National Customer Satisfaction Index, KPC). In doing so, it uses a revised version of the traditional analyses based on derived measures of attribute importance. The need for a revised methodology is prompted by the insights of the two- and three-factor theories of customer satisfaction, such as Kano's framework. Indeed, the evidence from 1635 customers of 6 Korean banks confirms an asymmetric relationship between attribute performances and overall customer satisfaction. The results from both a traditional and our revised approach are compared. While this approach can be applied across different industries, it should not be assumed that the numerical results presented in the paper apply to contexts with substantially different underlying characteristics. General trends and practical implications for banking services are reported in the conclusions.
