Overview
You have recently been hired as a business analyst for Financial Charm Bank, a large retail bank operating in the United States. The bank’s headquarters are located in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the bank earns most of its revenues from its operations in the East Coast and Midwest. In the Q4 review, it was observed that one of the larger branches in Florida failed to meet the earnings guidance. Originally, senior management had tasked the business analysis team to conduct a comparative review of the three largest branches in Florida, but after initial review, have decided to add an additional branch for analysis.
The vice president of business analytics has tasked you with the initial data analysis and to compose a final report for stakeholders. The purpose of this analysis is as follows:
Determine how products and services are performing at each branch location
Review customer traffic at the drive-up and lobby areas to ensure staff availability of each branch location
Prescribe optimal business outcomes by applying simple predictive algorithms
The vice president has also added an additional purpose for this analysis, which is to analyze online banking versus in-person banking utilization for each of the four branch locations.
In addition to the cleaned data set from Milestone One, the data team has provided you with the data set for the added branch, the data set for online versus in-person banking, a set of business rules, and additional product and service information.

Product and service performance at each branch
