The ever-increasing number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) worldwide highlights the significance of this segment and the need for banks to serve it with great attention and care.
Recognizing excellence in SME banking: Highlights from the 4th SME Banking Awards ceremony
A community of SME banking decision-makers
The Qorus SME Banking Community, led by the industry expert Ken Burke, brings together SME banking decision-makers from around the world, both virtually and in person, to discuss the key challenges they face in better serving their SME clients. They also share the innovative solutions they implement to address these challenges.
Some of their insights and initiatives are available on the Qorus website, including the ‘From Insights to Impact’ series, created in partnership with VeriPark. This series covers three critical topics: segmentation, service unification and distribution channels. Another recent report is ‘The AI Imperative: Navigating AI & Data for SME Banking Success’, developed in collaboration with Amazon Web Services.
