The Cornerstone Report: Benchmarks and Best Practices for Mid-Size Banks (Fifth Edition)
Every other year for the past decade, Cornerstone has invited mid-size banks (assets of $1 billion to $40 billion) to participate in an extensive benchmarking survey. The data collected from these surveys, augmented with benchmarks gathered through Cornerstone’s work with hundreds of financial institution clients, enables us to publish a detailed, analytical study of the staffing, process and technology utilization and deployment of institutions within these target asset sizes. Our industry knowledge and field observations make it possible for us to complement the statistical analysis with actionable best practice recommendations aimed at helping financial institutions become high performers.
What results is a one-of-a-kind benchmarking and best practices study, updated with the most currently available information. With the most accurate and in-depth benchmarking data available in the industry, The Cornerstone Report can help show mid-size bank CEOs where they should be targeting their strategic initiatives and potentially identify millions of dollars of process improvements and cost savings.
The Cornerstone Report Fifth Edition contains data obtained from nearly 70 banks and presents the numbers, best practices, and an analysis of industry trends that we are seeing.
