Registered student teams competed for the first place based on their level of awareness on the range of Credit Card products offered by Republic Bank.<\/p>\n

Year 2 and Year 3 participants of the Management Challenge addressed the Republic Bank’s Topic:<\/p>\n

\n

To determine the awareness levels of the range of Credit Card products (by generational cohorts)  offered by RBL in comparison to competitors and based on findings, recommend a campaign to increase awareness, usage and market share of RBL\u2019s Mass Market (e.g. Classic and Gold) and Affluent (e.g. Platinum, Signature and Infinite) Credit Cards.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The challenge allowed for the generation of fresh ideas where the students were able to add value now<\/strong>, even before they graduate.<\/p>\n

The challenge was a unique opportunity to make considerable input into an existing real world scenario. They were able to get an inside look into corporate world, a chance to be an influencer and an invaluable opportunity to effect meaningful change.<\/p>\n

The focus of the challenge was to match theory to business reality with the application of skills – research, innovation, creation of competitive advantage and multidiscipline rethinking, into the context of real world business challenges.<\/p>\n

Republic Bank definitely benefited from the students’ efforts. Additionally, the work put into their high quality presentations and their recommendations generated from their research over the course of one month was excellent.<\/p>\n

The Department of Management Studies congratulates all students who participated and their mentors who put in the time and energy to coach their teams.<\/p>\n

A job VERY well done!<\/p>\n

Congratulations to The UWI\/RBL Management Challenge 2019 – 1st Place Winners!<\/h4>\n
