    • 1st Edition
    • James Lynch

    Jim Lynch’s latest book focuses on one of the major threats to the banking industry - customer defection. The tradition of customers remaining loyal to their banks is fast disappearing.

Customer relationships in all sectors are in need of repair, not just economically but psychologically. This book is a guide to bankers and others in financial services on how to forge, renew or strengthen banking relationships.

    This book aims to explain the principles of contract law for the businessman, and to put those principles into their commercial context.

A lack of such a basic understanding at best results in a business which is less competitive and ultimately less profitable than it should be, and at worst can have expensive and sometimes disastrous commercial consequences.
