Today, I discuss Patrick Rucker's reporting on Bank of the West, and how a secret deal in 2017 to curtail how many overdrafts a customer can get there may do more harm than good. I discuss how the arbitrary $1000 limit led to accounts being closed and customers being unbanked. While the intent was meant to help them out, it can create further problems through chexsystems, which most banks use to approve accounts for clients. I also discuss the "sales pressure" of pushing your clients to link their checking accounts to ODP, and how it's an easy way to drive revenue, because although you are no longer gathering overdraft fees, you are then getting clients to get charged fees for the act of ODP happening. It's a complicated story as Bank of the West is headed towards a merger with BMO HARRIS bank. Plus, I recover $1500 from Susan in DC. This is one of the first times I let a media member into my methods of helping people, and I discuss my interaction with her, tips I shared with her to help her, and frankly how big banks do NOT research your fraud claims, and also worry more about call time length than fixing your issue. I got done in 1 day what her bank, BofA, could not get done in months with my "Customer Service Strategy" or "Vigilante Customer Service". I also discuss how her filing a police report to report the robbery of her car, and the subsequent denial of her claim is basically BofA telling her SHE is a criminal for filing a false police report, as the denial of her claim happens despite her affirmation to the police that the crime committed on her DID happen. It's a mess, but we got it done! :) NB Has recovered over $2.7 Million from big banks back to consumers, with nearly $500k of it being Zelle fraud! 27,000+ Followers on TikTok, Twitter and Instagram Buy My Book "High-Risk Transaction" Find all my social media and other links at: TheNotoriousBanker.com (Links to YouTube, my book's page, podcast links, and how to contribute by Venmo/Cashapp and much more!!!)

A recent Tessian report revealed that male graduates were almost twice as likely to consider a career in cybersecurity than female grads, despite it being an industry for considerable growth opportunities for women. Why? And how can we change their perception of cyber?As an incredibly successful female CISO, Anne Benigsen, CISO at Bankers' Bank of the West shares her opinions on how we can encourage more women to pursue a career in cyber. You can access the full Opportunity in Cybersecurity 2021 report here or via the Tessian website.
It's interesting how many three-year plans include a lot of “blinky boxes” and “very few tactical objectives other than keep doing phishing tests" to protect humans in the organization, says Anne Benigsen, CISO at Bankers’ Bank of the West in her conversation with Tessian's CEO Tim Sadler this week. Anne and Tim discuss how companies can use technology to protect people from potential cybersecurity mistakes in the same way that safety features of a car - airbags, seatbelts, anti-lock brakes protect people from causing harm. Anne passionately explains why it’s time to make security every employee’s responsibility - whether they’re in IT or not. Want more Human Layer Security insights?

Renegade Thinkers Unite: #2 Podcast for CMOs & B2B Marketers
A true, purpose-driven brand doesn't happen overnight. What it really takes is a goal, specific actions, and at times, a bit of sacrifice. For Bank of the West, their mission meant, in the short-term, potentially leaving money on the table in the name of responsible investment of customers' money, and transparency as to what that money was doing. That initial cost was worth it, as the long-term benefits, like new customers, talent attraction, and differentiation, outweighed any money lost. Now, when high-profile job candidates ask, "Why should I join you? How are you helping the world?" Bank of the West has a great an answer—they're one of very few banks that has restrictive financing policies on things like coal, fracking, and arctic drilling. On this episode of RTU, learn how CMO Ben Stuart and his team helped shape this relatively small financial institution to become a competitive, purpose-driven company with marketing that doesn't feel like an uninvited guest. The discussion touches on crafting a tight strategy, gaining internal buy-in, data analytics, the keys to differentiation, and more on how to craft brilliant marketing.
