Overall, the banking industry averaged a 67% rating in the 2016 Temkin Experience Ratings and tied for 4th place out of 20 industries. The average rating of the industry decreased by four percentage points between 2015 and 2016, dropping from 71% to 67%.
Here are some additional findings from the banking industry:
- The ratings of all banks in the 2016 Temkin Experience Ratings are as follows: A credit union (77%), USAA (75%), Regions (75%), Capital One 360 (71%), TD Bank (70%), PNC (70%), SunTrust Bank (68%), U.S. Bank (68%), Chase (67%), Capital One (66%), Fifth Third (65%), Wells Fargo (64%), Bank of America (63%), Citizens (60%), and Citibank (56%).
- No bank improved its rating between 2015 and 2016.
- Citizens (-12 points), USAA (-7 points), Chase (-6 points), and Citibank (-6 points) declined by the most percentage points between 2015 and 2016.
To generate these ratings, Temkin Group asked 10,000 U.S. consumers to evaluate their recent experiences with a company across three dimensions: success (can you do what you want to do?), effort (how easy is it to work with the company?), and emotion (how do you feel about the interactions?). Temkin Group then averaged these three scores to produce each company's Temkin Experience Rating.
In these ratings, a score of 70% or above is considered "good," and a score of 80% or above is considered "excellent." In this year's Temkin Experience Ratings, 20% of companies earned a "good" or "excellent" score, while 44% received a "poor" or "very poor" score.
