Join Matt Swain as he discusses how this study will serve as a critical business planning tool for all companies with a stake in the transactional communications marketplace.

Introduction
Shifts in consumer behavior, business policies, technology, and services have driven sustained changes within the presentment and payment markets in the United States.

Consider these recent changes:

• Consumer behavioral changes
  - More connectivity and hunger for apps
  - Exponential increases in tablet computing
  - Increased comfort transacting business online and via mobile
  - Polarizing views on data security – digital is superior than print and vice versa

• Business policy changes
  - Paperless by default at account inception
  - Pay for print versions of bills and statements
  - Householding of critical communications
  - Summary statements
  - More robust marketing efforts
  - Slower delivery via the USPS (in some cases)

• Technology & service changes
  - Entrance of digital mailbox services
  - Focus on preference management
  - Advances in Customer Communications Management (CCM)
  - Expansions of mobile payment technologies and services
  - Cloud-based services

As a result, many businesses are asking how to best support their transactional communications needs. Having a proper understanding of this landscape is paramount. This study will serve as a critical business planning tool for all companies with a stake in the transactional communications marketplace.
