Consumer insight services

We believe that organisations that adopt an unwavering focus on their customers are the ones which will survive and flourish.  At Consumer Intelligence, we help businesses to see themselves through their customers’ eyes and keep them at the heart of what they do. Consumer insight allows you to hear first-hand from those customers what they think, need and do.

Beyond the ‘what’, we can help you uncover the ‘why’ and the ‘what next’. It opens a dialogue with consumers which ensures you continue to delight those who buy from you, and those who don’t but will in the future – which ultimately determines success, resilience and growth.

Consumer Intelligence‘s full-service Consumer Research team offers a range of research capabilities to deliver bespoke research projects which can
allow you to understand your customers’ behaviours, attitudes and motivations.

Our team of experienced research professionals will work with you to design, manage and analyse research which gets to the heart of your business questions and support you to take positive business decisions. We know financial services, and we can help you get to know your customers.

 

Fair value

Fair Value Framework and Comparison

Fair value is set to be a revolutionary change for general insurance, making it a core focus for the FCA in the coming years. To help you step confidently into the world of fair value, we have launched two new services designed to give you in information you need to evidence your compliance to the FCA, embed fair value throughout your organisational culture, and generate positive business outcomes.

The Fair Value Framework provides a universal language across the insurance industry of what fair value is, determined by the people that matter most - your customers. The Fair Value Comparison is designed to help insurance brands get ahead of the game by establishing how they compare to their peers and identifying where improvements need to be made ahead of FCA intervention.
