Abstract:
Since its entry into Europe in the late 1980s, National Australia Bank has focused on expansion through acquisitions and has been operating as a one-stop shop for all the financial needs of its customers. However, in the UK, due to intense competition and its absence in the 'wealthy' southeast England, the bank faced the problem of 'too many branches, too few customers'. It was forced to sell off its Irish banks and focus on its core UK business. To revamp its declining sales, the bank launched various cross-selling initiatives, changed its work culture and redesigned its offices to offer its customers a club-like ambience.

Pedagogical Objectives:

  • To discuss the various cross-selling strategies adopted by National Australia Bank
  • To discuss whether it can achieve its targeted growth in the highly competitive European banking industry.
