Abstract

The present study, as practical research with a descriptive-survey method and correlation analysis, attempts to evaluate the latent demand of customers regarding the banking service management in the Tejarat Bank of Iran. A questionnaire form was used to collect data and their validity was verified using content validity and construct validity. The statistical measures and structural equation modeling were used to test the hypothesis and to describe findings using SPSS software. The results revealed that all research hypotheses in both conditions of status quo and the preferred situation could be confirmed due to significant regression coefficients of R from 0.803 to 0.952 and Sig. from 0.01 to 0.05, at a confidence level over 95%. In this regard, the success level of the banking process in the present status of the Tejarat Bank depends on the improvement of E-banking and e-service qualities, while its success level of banking process in the preferred situation in the future essential needs to enhance the CRM approaches, good communication and relationships with the customers. Hence, these findings can contribute to understanding the relationships between different dimensions of the customer’s latent demand, including the customer’s relationship management and the relationship marketing orientation. Suggesting such approaches in the banking process could support customers to retain sustainable competitive advantages and profits.
