(Norwell, MA) October 30, 2002…In a recently completed white paper, CAP Ventures identifies key opportunities for digital service providers in the financial services and insurance industries. The key to success in these markets is the ability to provide comprehensive solutions that are accurate, flexible, innovative, and which help reduce expenses and deliver significant value to the company and its customers. For the digital service provider, understanding the trends in the financial services and insurance industries provides a number of opportunities. The rapidity with which regulations change in today’s business and legislative environments reinforce the value proposition offered by electronic document storage and distribution, imaging, print on demand, and the addition of electronic pick-and-pack to fulfillment services. All of these services are core to the service provider who wishes to penetrate these industries. This industry brief provides an in-depth view of the issues and trends faced by the financial services and insurance industries, and outlines opportunities for market expansion. The brief also includes specific sales and marketing strategies to drive success in these industries, and presents four case studies of service providers who have been successful in serving them. Key topics covered in this application brief include: * Scope and size of the financial services and insurance industries  * Key trends and issues facing both industries  * Applications for digital printing and electronic delivery  * Sales and marketing strategies for the financial services and insurance industries  * Case histories discussing successful solutions in the financial services and insurance industries The complete white paper is available immediately to clients of CAP Ventures’ Production Workflow Solutions Consulting Services.
