Finaccord' s report titled Partner Metrics: Consumer Attitudes Towards and Willingness to Use Alternative Providers in UK Financial Services is a unique, primary analysis of the actual and potential impact of 80 key non-financial partner organisations across nine separate banking and insurance products: motor insurance, household insurance, travel insurance, accident and health insurance, life insurance, credit cards, mortgages, personal loans and savings accounts.

In addition to presenting data and rankings for the percentage of respondents that have taken out each type of financial service through each organisation, the research also defines the proportion that would be either definitely or possibly interested in doing so, or probably or definitely not interested in doing so, thereby facilitating the generation of a series of rankings for each financial product that illustrate the actual and / or potential effectiveness of all 80 entities considered.

Moreover, in order to deliver extra value, these results are presented separately for both the full universe of respondents and for individuals identifying themselves as actual customers of each of the 80 organisations. Further insight comes in the form of rankings by number of customers, frequency of contact with customers and brand trustworthiness as judged, once again, both by all consumers and the current customers of each organisation.

0.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Research background and structure
In terms of the regularity of contact with consumers, Google comes second only to Tesco...
... although the Post Office possesses the largest outright number of customers
The brands of Boots and Marks & Spencer inspire the most trust across all consumers...
... while the brands of energy companies have been damaged by rising electricity and gas prices
The National Trust / National Trust for Scotland comes first for trust among its own members
On average, consumers are most likely to take out motor insurance through the 80 organisations...
... with least interest being demonstrated for mortgages as a result of a number of factors
The 80 partner organisations researched can be grouped into five main sets and subsets...
... for which various conclusions can be drawn concerning their prospects in financial services...
... including the potential for strong execution to over-ride an apparently less favourable profile

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Research rationale
Alternative providers have expanded rapidly in UK financial services since the mid-1990s...
... although it can be hard to evaluate the actual and potential efficacy of any given organisation
Partner Metrics seeks to provide both an intellectual framework and robust, indicative data...
... for both the full universe of respondents and actual customers of each of 80 organisations
Research sample
Strengths and weaknesses
The Internet research methodology is characterised by several advantages and drawbacks

2.0 PARTNER ANALYSIS

Introduction
Results from the Partner Metrics research are given for nine distinct types of financial service...
... albeit these are preceded by key findings from Finaccord' s 2005 Affinity Metrics program
Key findings from the 2005 Affinity Metrics research
Credit cards / other banking products
Charities and trade unions experienced the second and third highest rates of interest...
... thanks to the widespread nature of charity cards and extensive affinity involvement of unions
Over 12.0 million consumers can be targeted by the Post Office for banking products
Life insurance and pensions
Consumers are most likely to favour banks and building societies as a distribution channel...
... although the worksite is not far behind as an option among employed respondents
Close to 9.5 million consumers would potentially buy a life or pensions policy in the workplace
Accident and health insurance
Over one third of consumers would buy accident or health cover through the banking channel
Trade unions and the worksite are also rated highly as possible distribution channels
In terms of the number of susceptible consumers, the Post Office exceeds the worksite
Personal non-life insurance
7.5% of union members have already bought personal non-life insurance through their union...
... and consumers show notable interest at the idea of buying insurance through a charity
The Post Office can rival supermarkets as a distribution channel for personal non-life insurance...
... with newspapers and magazines reaching out to a potential audience of some 4.61 million
Consumer relationships and awareness
Results for all consumers
Among retailers, Boots lies second to Tesco in terms of its profile with consumers...
... with Google, the Post Office and BT also featuring among the top five in this ranking
Implied number of customers
Only 6.41% of consumers claim to have no relationship whatsoever with the Post Office
The positions of Argos and Boots are boosted by their huge volume of occasional customers
Consumer trust
Results for all consumers
Among the 80 entities covered, the brands of Boots and Marks & Spencer are the most trusted...
... with the UK' s leading three supermarkets also managing top ten rankings for trustworthiness
The brands of British Gas, npower and Powergen have been damaged by rising energy prices
Results for actual customers
Four firms achieve a top ten ranking for trust both among their own clients and all consumers...
... while American Express, BMW and Honda score especially well among their own customers
Travel firms tend to achieve relatively low scores for trust among their own clients
Motor insurance - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
The AA achieves the highest percentage of consumers claiming actual or historic utilisation
Halfords is perceived by many consumers as a possible source of motor insurance
Results for actual customers
Saga and the csma score highly as distributors of motor insurance among their own customers
An average of 6.30% of drivers claim to have bought automotive manufacturer insurance
Implied number of actual and viable customers
Boots and Nectar could both be viable affinity partners for motor insurance in future
Household insurance - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
More consumers view Tesco as a viable source of household insurance than those who do not
Amazon, B&Q, Boots, BT, Morrison' s and Nectar could credibly enter this market
A number of existing affinity partners for household insurance possess inherent handicaps
Results for actual customers
Saga achieves a level of take-up among its own customers that is far ahead of the competition
Certain partner organisations are well-positioned to leverage the affinity of their customers...
... although it is far from certain whether eBay can sell household policies to its customer base
Implied number of actual and viable customers
Tesco and the Post Office both possess in excess of six million actual or viable customers
Travel insurance - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
Among all consumers, the Post Office appears to be the best partner for travel insurance...
... with a range of other organisations challenging the position of specialist travel firms
A number of organisations that do offer travel insurance are unlikely to be effective in this field
Results for actual customers
Superior cross-selling rates mean that travel-oriented firms are the most efficient distributors...
... with Kuoni Travel' s apparent rate exceeding that even of Saga
Implied number of actual and viable customers
Among travel entities, Thomas Cook has the most implied actual and viable customers
Accident and health insurance - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
Boots is the organisation that consumers are most likely to associate with this type of policy...
... followed by other retailers as well as the AA, Age Concern, the Post Office, Saga and Virgin
Results for actual customers
6.38% of its customers claim to have bought an accident or health policy through Saga
Implied number of actual and viable customers
Implied viable customers exceed 1.5 million in the case of both BT and John Lewis
Life insurance - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
The results for life insurance are broadly comparable to those for accident and health insurance
Life insurance is distributed by three of the ten organisations achieving the lowest rankings
Results for actual customers
The actual customers of Saga and Age Concern are most likely to buy life insurance
Almost 3.5% of Manchester United' s supporters claim to have acquired a policy through the club
Implied number of actual and viable customers
Only Tesco possesses an implied number of actual and viable customers above three million
Credit cards - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
Tesco' s credit card has achieved apparently remarkable take-up among consumers...
... and latent demand for American Express payment cards appears to remain strong
The results suggest that there could be scope for Boots to introduce its own co-branded card...
... as well as BT and some of the larger automotive manufacturer brands
Results for actual customers
A number of organisations boast apparently high take-up rates for their co-branded cards...
... including the csma, Tesco, Saga, Virgin and Marks & Spencer...
... but future growth prospects for the Ryanair and Halfords co-branded cards appear doubtful
Implied number of actual and viable customers
The research suggests that demand for an eBay co-branded credit card could be strong
Mortgages - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
Consumers show limited interest in taking out mortgages through alternative providers...
... although Tesco' s experience in this market appears to have been reasonable
Results for actual customers
The results suggest that BMW could extend its financial services proposition to mortgages
Implied number of actual and viable customers
Nine organisations score over one million implied actual or viable customers
Personal loans - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
The results suggest that the top two affinity loan partners are Tesco and the Post Office
Amazon, B&Q and, arguably, Age Concern could also be viable distributors of personal loans
Results for actual customers
Consistently high take-up rates confirm the csma as a classic affinity partner
Implied number of actual and viable customers
ASDA and Sainsbury' s both score over two million in implied actual or viable borrowers
Savings accounts - actual and potential performance
Results for all consumers
Only a minority of the 80 organisations surveyed currently offer their own savings accounts...
... with the viability of the Post Office as a provider seemingly much higher than that of Tesco
Results for actual customers
A number of organisations could consider entering the market for savings accounts...
... with cross-selling rates among the leading branded providers ranging from 1% to over 4%
Implied number of actual and viable customers
ASDA, Boots and Nectar all possess a relatively high implied number of viable customers
