Review:

'Much has changed in the financial services sector since this text was first published and the global financial crisis has had a substantial impact on developments. However, the sector remains extremely competitive and, consequently, marketing strategies are of primary importance for success. This book addresses the subject area thoughtfully and perceptively and is, without question, a key reference for students whether at university or within the financial services professions.'

Stewart Falconer, Edinburgh Napier University, UK

'Few text books succeed so well as Financial Services Marketing 2e in taking the reader on a global journey from marketing theory to business strategy and practice. The second edition, with additions on topics such as digital marketing and contemporary market research techniques, will surely make this one of the best-thumbed reference books a marketing professional or student could wish to have open on his or her desk.'

Faye Lageu, Vice President, International Cooperative and Mutual Insurance Federation

'The 2nd edition of this book will be of tremendous benefit to all who study it, and it will aid understanding of the Financial Services Industry, allowing greater insight into its many complexities and issues. It will be of great assistance to those wanting a deeper understanding of an industry that affects all our daily lives.'
