speculative positive Natural language processing in bank marketing: a systematic ... market structure indicators (differentiation, switching costs, market concentrat...
Limited applied research on NLP for acquisition and personalization implies unrealized value in banking: NLP could enable more efficient, targeted customer acquisition and cross‑sell, potentially lowering customer‑acquisition cost (CAC) and increasing lifetime value (LTV).

Improved alignment can reduce harms from misinterpretation (incorrect decisions, misinformation), lowering downstream liability and reputational risk for vendors and customers.
