Firms employing hierarchical loyalty programs (HLPs) periodically demote customers from higher to lower status level to divest from unprofitable customers and boost profitability. However, existing literature lacks objective evidence on how customer demotion affects demoted customers' future purchase behaviors and ultimately profitability for the firm. Moreover, customers in the HLP's higher position may respond to customer demotion differently from those in the HLP's lower position. Drawing upon emotions and equity theories, this study quantifies how the profits that customers contribute to the firm change after customer demotion, and compares demoted customers' behavioral reactions from top-tier with those from bottom-tier based on customers' actual behavior data from a major retail bank in South Korea. The findings show that withdrawing customer status actually deteriorates customer profitability, and customers with top-tier status decrease their profitability more dramatically than those with bottom-tier status after demotion. The results contribute to previous literature on customer demotion and relationship marketing, and provide specific guidelines into how firms should design and implement customer demotion in HLPs.

금융시장에서의 경쟁이 치열해지면서 이제 국내 소비자금융기관들에게 수익성위주의 내실경영은 피할 수 없는 지상과제로 부상하고 있다. 이러한 목표를 성취하기 위해서는 우량고객을 위주로 한 기반강화와 철저한 사후관리를 통한 수익성향상이 이루어져야 한다. 특히, 자금운용처로 부상하고있는 개인고객들을 대상으로 하는 효과적인 대출마케팅의 수행은 소매금융기관들의 수익성제고에 절대적이라고 할 수 있다. 즉, 수익성을 지향하기 위해서는 고객관리를 보다 더 철저하게 하여야 하며 이를 위해서는 신용 및 수익성에 근거해서 산출된 평점에 따라 개인별 관리를 차별화하는데 있다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 우량고객들을 대상으로 대출마케팅을 활성화시키기 위한 고객평점모형의 효과성에 대해서 고찰해 보고자 하였다. 이를 위해서 신용평점모형에 대해서 자세히 알아보고 이어서 수익성에 근거한 평점모형에 대해서도 이론적으로 살펴보았다. 그리고 두 모형의 효과성을 비교하기 위해서 판별분석을 사용하여 우량 및 불량고객에 대한 예측력을 분석해 보았다. 분석결과 제1종오차에 대해서는 신용평점모형이, 제2종 오차에 대해서는 수익성평점모형이 보다 정교한 예측력을 나타냈다. 결론적으로 두 모형의 사용이 병행되는 통합적인 고객평점모형의 적용이 제안되어 졌다.

Most banks use only demographic information such as gender, age, occupation and address to segment customers, but they do not reflect financial behavior patterns of customers. In this study, we aim to solve the problems by using various big data in a bank and to develop customer segmentation method which can be widely used in many banks in the future. In this paper, we propose an approach of segmenting clustering blocks with bottom-up method. This method has an advantage that it can accurately reflect various financial needs of customers based on various transaction patterns, channel contact patterns, and existing demographic information. Based on this, we will develop various marketing models such as product recommendation, financial need rating calculation, and customer churn-out prediction based on this, and we will adapt this models for the marketing strategy of NH Bank.

Purpose Domestic asset management fintech companies are expected to grow by leaps and bounds along with the implementation of the "Data bills." Contrary to the market fever, however, academic research is insufficient. Therefore, we want to analyze user reviews of asset management fintech companies that are expected to grow significantly in the future to derive strengths and complementary points of services that have been provided, and analyze key elements of asset management fintech companies. Design/methodology/approach To analyze large amounts of review text data, this study applied text mining techniques. Bank Salad and Toss, domestic asset management application services, were selected for the study. To get the data, app reviews were crawled in the online app store and preprocessed using natural language processing techniques. Topic Modeling and Aspect-Sentiment Analysis were used as analysis methods. Findings According to the analysis results, this study was able to derive the elements that asset management fintech companies should have. As a result of Topic Modeling, 7 topics were derived from Bank Salad and Toss respectively. As a result, topics related to function and usage and topics on stability and marketing were extracted. Sentiment Analysis showed that users responded positively to function-related topics, but negatively to usage-related topics and stability topics.

Credit scoring system (CSS) starts from an analysis of delinquency trend of each individual or industry. This paper conducts a research on credit card delinquency of bank customers as a preliminary step for building effective credit scoring system to prevent excess loan or bad credit status. To serve this purpose, we use association rules as a rule generating data mining technique. Specifically, we generate sets of rules of customers who are in bad credit status because of delinquency by association rule mining. We expect that the sets of rules generated by association rule mining could act as an estimator of good or bad credit status classifier and basic component of early warning system.
