Smaller and midsized banks can play in the wealth management big leagues, but they have to use some Moneyball type tactics to compete and win against the big budget competition.

“I bring BSG’s expert consultants back every time we need fast recommendations
that I know will stand up during the implementation. They have never let me down.”
EVP of Top 50 bank
“These days we don’t have time for consulting project oversight like we used to.
BSG’s consultants can work independently.”
CEO of Community Bank
“We don’t worry about scope-creep with BSG. They stay focused on results and
timelines.”
CTO of Regional Bank
“So far I haven’t come across a problem that stumps BSG ‘s veteran consultants.
They’ve been around, they’ve seen it all, and nothing fazes them.”
