Internal communications plays an important role amongst banking and financial institutions, but their highly regulated nature means that they're often left with old and outdated systems and processes which is impacting engagement. Instead, they need to embrace embrace modern, accessible tools, like Employee Experience Platforms (EXPs) that personalise the employee experience. 

Hyper-personalisation is a priority for consumer experience. Workplace technology shouldn't be any different. By personalising your tech, you cater an employee's individual needs, rather than using one-size fits all approach. This will ultimately boost adoption and maximise your return on investment.
