4 About the Aii Vision, Scope, Methodology & Winners

5 About the American Innovation Index (Aii) An ambitious research program that quantifies the innovativeness of nearly 200 companies in 20 industries from the customer point of view The idea originated in Norway researchers at the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH) believed the true indicator of innovativeness in a market is what can be gleaned from the actual experiences of consumers Fordham University s Gabelli School of Business, Rockbridge Associates, and NHH partnered to implement the study in the United States

6 Sectors Covered in the Aii Airlines Auto Insurers Auto Manufacturers Banks Consumer Durables Credit Card Providers Delivery and Shipping Energy Utilities Fuel Companies General Merchandise Retail Health Insurers Investment Services Life and Disability Insurers Lodging Restaurants Specialty Retailers Supermarkets and Drugstores Technology TV/ISPs Wireless/Cellular

7 The Aii Methodology Rockbridge, an independent market research firm, fielded a nationally representative online survey of over 7,000 U.S. adults, comprising over 30,000 customer relationships Customers of companies rated them on key metrics covering general innovation (Aii ), social innovation (Sii ), loyalty, and attractiveness for doing business. For top companies, we also collected emotional experiences (arousal and pleasure) and perceived change in how the company does business. The key metrics are based on scientifically validated scales, and converted to 0 to 100 scores. This includes ü American Innovation Index: Aii perceptions of the company being innovative, creative, changing the market, and being a category pioneer ü Social Innovation Index: Sii perceptions of the company having innovative social offerings, prioritizing the social (and environmental) good, and coming up with innovative solutions to benefit the social good

25 What the Aii Can Mean For Your Credit Union

26 Why the American Innovation Index matters to you You need to ensure your hard work and investments reach members downstream Innovation is a powerful strategy to drive growth in a crowded sector where satisfaction is not enough Even if you are innovative, you need to pay attention to social innovation in order to be transformational rather than disruptive If you don t watch innovation as a KPI, you risk disruption

27 Some questions for the Big.Bright.Minds here today

28 Do you believe innovation and social innovation are critical issues for credit unions?

29 Would a valid measure of credit union innovativeness that your institution could use to benchmark its performance be useful?

30 Would you like to be included in Filene s effort to create a national measure of credit union innovativeness?
