 New predictive segmentation system

Empirics If you're responsible for bank or financial services marketing, you'll want to know about the Empirics predictive segmentation system.

Empirics rates neighborhoods by their households’ likelihood of buying specific financial products. For example, for any neighborhood in the U.S., you can determine the number of households 'Most Likely' to invest in money market accounts — meaning 1 in 4 households is likely to purchase.

It’s easy to discover who these people are and where they live. The same holds true for people most likely to buy CDs, annuities, mutual funds, and more than a dozen other financial products.

Discover Empirics, including a sample neighborhood chart and map
