Generating new customers is very important to banks for several reasons. New banking customers bring in deposits, which can be used to fund loans and generate revenue for the bank. This is particularly important for banks that rely on deposits to fund their operations. Also, new customers can provide opportunities for cross-selling and upselling. For example, a bank might offer a new customer a credit card, mortgage or investment product, which can increase revenue. New customers are a must to help to diversify base, which can reduce risk exposure. If a bank relies too heavily on a small number of customers, it can be vulnerable to the financial problems of those customers.
