Nomis Solutions, the leader in Profit-based Pricing for banking and finance, today announced its participation in the
upcoming Strategic Pricing in the Financial Sector conference held in New York, December 4-5, 2006. Simon Caufield, vice president of Global Services at Nomis Solutions, will present Key
Lessons Learned from Profit-Based Pricing Implementations and participate in a panel discussion which explores how banks and finance companies can strategically leverage pricing to
achieve business objectives.
According to a recent Federal Reserve survey, the majority of U.S. banks reported weaker demand for auto and home loans for the second straight quarter. About 45% of U.S. respondents
reported weaker demand for consumer loans. In light of these changes in the industry, financial services companies are beginning to recognize that Profit-based Pricing, which is price
optimization specifically developed for the industry'ss unique profitability dynamics, is a key initiative that can help them gain a competitive advantage.
Approximately 80 CEOs, CFOs, COOs, and Heads of Retail Banking, Lending Pricing, Product Management, and Marketing of banks in the U.S., Canada and the UK are expected to attend the
inaugural event to learn more about Profit-based Pricing. The conference will shed light on new ways to boost profits and sales volume as financial institutions address increased levels
of competition, decreased margins, as well as changes in consumer behavior. Profit-based Pricing is quickly becoming a popular approach for increasing profits, making the pricing process
more structured and efficient, and gaining important insights about how customers's value particular products and services.
As the leader in Profit-based Pricing, Nomis Solutions's approach is gaining a lot of attention as customers realize 10-20% lifts in profits as a result of adopting Nomis Price Optimizer
Suite 3, which is designed for the specific needs of the consumer lending market. Mr. Caufield'ss presentation at the Strategic Pricing Conference takes place on December 4 at 2:45 pm
ET.
I'sm looking forward to explaining how Profit-based Pricing works, as well as the lessons we'sve learned from first-hand experiences with our customers, said Caufield. I'sll be talking
about some of the challenges our customers have encountered, the critical success factors, as well as a series of best practices that we'sve developed over the years.
We decided to host a conference on the topic of strategic pricing this year because there is a growing interest in this area and an appetite to learn more. Through our research with
financial executives, we realized that improving pricing processes and price optimization will be key business drivers in 2007, said, Elisabeth Mork-Eidem, production director, Banking,
Finance and Insurance of Marcus Evans events. We are happy that Nomis Solutions will be participating in our Strategic Pricing Conference and are eager to have Mr. Caufield share his
extensive experience and unique insight into this exciting new area.
