    Loyalty in financial services is big business, touching millions of customers and billions in spend every day. But it is also one of the most competitive sectors in loyalty.

In this episode, we bring together a panel of leaders from some of the world’s most successful financial services programmes.

And JP Lips, former CEO of Nectar in the UK and now President for Europe at Capillary Technologies, adds a broader global perspective on what success looks like. Together, they explore the challenges of building loyalty in financial services, how these challenges differ across markets, what sets top-performing programmes apart, and the essential advice they would give to anyone new to the sector.
