In the 2019 Consumer Digital Banking Survey conducted by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), 21% of respondents had planned to open a new deposit account that year, including 46% of Gen Zers and 26% of millennials.  Survey data also indicates that younger consumers are more likely to open an account based on experiential factors, and not necessarily interest rates.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is why we in the industry continue to invest in technology and be on the lookout for ways to make banking even more convenient than it is now,&#8221; noted Lito Villanueva, RCBC chief innovations and inclusion officer. \u201cWe continue to listen to the market and harness the power of fintech to enable us to offer the best customer experience.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RCBC-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RCBC-2.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RCBC-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The country\u2019s financial industry has adopted various technologies such as application programming interfaces (API) to optimize banking experience and to meet the exacting demands of digital natives.
