Pricing & Controlling
Active price management and structured sales control working together
Active price management and structured sales control working together
Are the calculation of banking products and active price management identical? In short: no.
Active price management goes far beyond the mere calculation of products.
It encompasses the entire value creation process – from product design, pricing, and market launch to marketing, competitive analysis, and the resulting sales management. This results in a holistic approach that not only calculates prices, but also strategically uses, controls, and continuously develops them.
This holistic view is becoming increasingly important, particularly in view of the EBA regulatory requirements for lending and the business benefits. Modern and forward-looking pricing and controlling requires active management, transparency, and market orientation—and that is exactly where we can support you.
Take the next step—actively, strategically, and together with us.
