Did you know: 57% of mortgage first-time-buyers bought their home using a Government support scheme; 41% of retail investors feel they can buy a financial product or invest without professional help; only 43% of consumers trust the banking industry to focus on the best interests of its customers and wider society; and 41% of all consumers feel they are confident, savvy buyers of insurance?
These results come from IRN’s consumer financial services report series, which presents detailed consumer research on retail financial markets with market analysis. The series helps you understand the financial consumer and how consumer financial services markets are developing, and equips you to exploit emerging trends, assess future opportunities and gain complete market intelligence.

Hybrid Reports
Hybrid reports combined features of the Consumer Research and Market Trend reports. They are typically based on a smaller respondent sample compared with the Consumer Research reports and/or based on fewer questions. Unlike the Consumer Research reports, they include a Market Size and Trends section which outlines the current market size and may also discuss the key market players (and possibly market shares) and the market future.
