By using Big Data Analytics, banks can build an institutional memory of each individual customer: their likes and dislikes; which channels they like to be communicated through and which promotions they have responded to. By putting in place the right people, methods and systems, banks can trawl through the data left by every customer interaction to find the patterns and anomalies that will allow them to treat each customer as an individual, and engage with them in the most appropriate manner.\u201c<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"John Furrier bio\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/furrier\" target=\"_blank\">John Furrier<\/a>,\u00a0SiliconAngle.tv founder, <a title=\"John Furrier on Banks and Big Data\" href=\"http:\/\/wikibon.org\/wiki\/v\/Abhishek_Mehta_of_Bank_of_America_on_Big_Data_and_the_second_industrial_revolution\" target=\"_blank\">said that <\/a>&#8220;Most people think of online banking as sort of a reality. When online banking first came out people said, &#8216;that&#8217;s awesome.&#8217; Now it&#8217;s like you take it for granted, it&#8217;s like what new features can you add. So you are in the business of using data. Is the role of data changing your business model, and share with folks out there the business models, because you brought that up. You&#8217;re getting more mobility with Web access; you&#8217;re learning more about your customers in real time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Allen Weinberg bio\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pub\/allen-weinberg\/26\/8b\/1a4\" target=\"_blank\">Allen Weinberg<\/a>, Director at McKinsey, <a title=\"Allen Weinberg on Big Data\" href=\"http:\/\/www.readwriteweb.com\/archives\/bankers_go_bonkers_over_big_datas_future.php\" target=\"_blank\">said that<\/a> &#8220;Most of the companies in banking grew through silos and thus haven&#8217;t had a good single view of customer. \u00a0Even if you had the data in one place &#8211; how do we manage then to execute? If we had visibility and transparency into the exact credit on every distinct loan, if you can see the whole customer then it&#8217;s no longer a mystery and we can avoid the mistaken assumptions of the past.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Barbara Murphy bio\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pub\/barbara-murphy\/1\/65\/380\" target=\"_blank\">Barbara Murphy<\/a>, CMO of Panasas, a Sunnyvale,

\u00a0There will be a change in how we write computer programs, how we store data, and many other technological changes around big data&#8230; \u00a0Our customers are asking for one huge, big system
