From trust and convenience to digital UX and human service, the drivers of bank choice are evolving fast. And preferences can differ starkly from Gen Z to Boomers, and across genders and income levels.

Join YouGov’s experts on November 5 at 2:00 PM ET / 11:00 AM PT for a fast, data-rich walkthrough of our latest U.S. consumer banking rankings and insights.

In this session, we’ll explore:

  • The most-considered consumer banks today
  • How preferences shift across generations, gender, and income levels
  • Why people switch: attitudes and motivations behind choice and loyalty
  • Which banks lead in customer satisfaction
  • Fintech focus: who’s moving to brands like CashApp, Chime, Ally, SoFi, and Revolut, and which profiles are most likely to churn from traditional banks

Gain actionable insights to understand how different segments of the population interact with banks — and what it takes to stay top of mind in a competitive market.
