Marketers for banks and other financial institutions are discovering that conventional marketing and ad spends are delivering diminishing returns.

But embracing digital marketing to engage these new customers still has some challenges. Whiteman offered several tips.

The solution is launching localized websites with culturally resonant translations, Whiteman says.
