McKinsey's study of the S&P 1500 companies that found a 1% improvement in pricing would generate an 8% improvement in operating profits is something that we love to share. What we hear more often is how banks are focused on cutting costs. Cost cutting is seemingly always the first club out of the bag, but why?

A commercial loan book usually turns over quickly, meaning you can get to those results faster than in banking than other industries. For this fictional bank, it would take less than 20 months to hit that number.
