Case Study Prompt
In this case we are going to examine the performance of a joint venture between BankCo and PostCo (referred to as PostBank) and make an assessment on the options available to the Board of BankCo.
PostBank is a retail bank that sells price competitive lending, investment and insurance products through the branch distribution network of PostCo.
PostCo is a widely known and trusted company. Just prior to the JV, PostCo’s business was undermined by a government decision to shift to the electronic payment of welfare. It did not sell financial services products.
All products are manufactured by BankCo. PostBank does not provide a current account to its customers, a position advocated by PostCo.
