Banks Profit from Inertia as AI Starts Changing Habits
Original: Lazy Customers Are Great for Banks. Could AI Change that? https://www.wsj.com/finance/banking/lazy-customers-are-great-f
A Wall Street Journal analysis argues that customer laziness has long been a quiet profit engine for banks: customers rarely switch accounts, so institutions can charge fees and pay low deposit rates without losing business. The piece examines whether artificial intelligence tools, which make comparing and moving financial products easier, could erode that inertia and force banks to compete harder for deposits and loyalty.
Why now: AI's growing role in personal finance is prompting debate about whether it will disrupt traditional banking profit models.
