By providing personalized money management features that help customers manage their finances and meet their financial goals, Metro Bank is advancing its leadership position as an innovator in customer experience and a trusted partner to its clients.

Powered by Personetics' Cognitive Banking Brain, Metro Bank's Insights monitors transaction data in real-time and identifies user-specific trends, events and spending habits - providing customers with insightful prompts and forward-looking perspective into their finances.

Customers can now be swiftly alerted to important events and changes in their day-to-day banking activity - empowering them to avoid unnecessary charges, better manage their spending, and take advantage of opportunities to increase savings.

"We've all been there when you forget to cancel a free trial and end up accidentally subscribing for another month, or you leave a cafe only to realise you've mistakenly been charged twice for the same cup of coffee. Insights is about being on the front foot; cutting through the noise to provide relevant and timely tips that make a real difference to customers. This is yet another example of us using technology to make peoples' lives easier," said Craig Donaldson, CEO of Metro Bank.

"We are excited to work with Metro Bank and be part of the transformation they are bringing to British banking. The revolution in banking starts with putting the customer first, and banks that embrace this path forward will be well-positioned to win customers' trust and earn their business," said David Sosna, Co-founder and CEO of Personetics.
