What Business Categories Make Up Financial Services?
The financial services industry sectors (NAICS 52 & 53) provide related financial services to consumers and businesses. This is a broad segment of the economy, made up of a variety of financial firms including banks, credit unions, investment firms & advisors, business & consumer lenders, finance companies, real estate agents & brokers, and a range of insurance lines of business.
Multinational conglomerates dominate this sector, but it also includes a diverse range of smaller companies that serve businesses and consumers in niche markets and small communities.
How Large Is The Financial Services Industry?
As described by SelectUSA.gov, “Financial markets in the United States are the largest and most liquid in the world. In 2018, finance and insurance represented 7.4 percent (or $1.5 trillion) of U.S. gross domestic product. Leadership in this large, high-growth sector translates into substantial economic activity and direct and indirect job creation in the United States.”
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Q1 2020 statistics for the number of establishments showed 506,985 in the Finance & Insurance sector, and 426,235 in the Real Estate, Rental, & Leasing sector. As of September 2020 there were almost 6.5 million persons employed in the former, and 2.2 million in the latter. In both cases the unemployment rates were well below the national rate in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Financial services and products help facilitate and finance the export of U.S. manufactured goods and agricultural products. In 2017, the United States exported $114.5 billion in financial services and insurance and had a $40.8 billion surplus in financial services and insurance trade (excluding re-insurance, the financial services and insurance sectors had a surplus of $69.6 billion).
In normal times, 20% of educator contact data succumbs to data decay, year to year. Needless to say, these are not normal times. Schools at all levels have been tasked with maintaining and replenishing staffs. Teachers must find new ways, and places, to serve their students. Providers of educational tools and techniques that want to have a positive impact must be equipped to deliver the right message in the midst of heightened volatility.

Financial Services Industry Trends
FinTech
This is the burgeoning area that includes platforms, processes, and products in the financial services industry that provide new ways for businesses and consumers to access and use financial services online. Financial services providers have embraced the trend toward financial technology solutions.
Having been given a boost by the Covid-19 pandemic, FinTech is now considered an essential component of financial service business models. Competition is robust. There are literally thousands of companies worldwide offering FinTech solutions to financial services companies of all types. FinTech marketers need to approach financial services prospects with deep knowledge of who makes the purchase decisions and what they need most, if they expect to be relevant.
Online & Mobile Banking
A J.D. Power survey of customer behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic revealed trends that are already underway, and have accelerated. These new habits are likely to become permanent. Among the findings were the following (updated May 29-31, 2020):
- 25% deposited a check using a mobile phone (p24)
- 18% responded “very likely” to selecting an online bank without branches for their next checking, savings, or money market accounting. (p28)
- For the same question by age, 20% age 30-44 responded “very likely”. (p29)
- For bank mobile app use during COVID, 17% reported “I use it a lot more often”. (p35)
- 19% reported the same answer for laptop or PC usage during the pandemic. (p36)
Clearly, the adoption of online banking, both fixed and mobile has gained traction. Financial services businesses will obviously be of a mind to embrace this trend. They will need consultation and guidance in the choice, implementation and maintenance of these capabilities. As an extension of this phenomenon, the insurance, investment, and real estate sectors of the financial services industry have to varying degrees embraced offering services that allow clients and customers to perform more and more tasks remotely.

Financial Services Data Hygiene
The growth of non-bank financial services businesses, often characterized by more streamlined structures, poses a new competitive challenge to traditional institutions. Startup hiring gives birth to new records for contacts in responsible positions.
Manufacturing and retail concerns are establishing financial services arms as a way to capture customer data while they reap interest income from instruments such as credit cards. The same is true for vast, global financial services providers employing armies of personnel as they adapt. The result is often a churn rate manifesting itself as data decay. Mobility is one thing, but when companies merge or go out of business, making an up to date suppression file a must-have. Data decay must be recognized and planned for when deploying marketing campaigns. To meet the demand for accuracy and freshness, compiled data sources are continuously monitored through our HyperHygiene® process to ensure high levels of deliverability and response.
