Transforming Profitability Analytics into Strategic Advantages
Too often institutional plans remain broad while departments pursue seperate priorites. This results in fragmentation - departments moving in different directions while the insitutions strategic goals go unmet The Strategic Management Framwork solves this by creating a common strategic framework that aligns departmental decisions with institutional obectives such as ROA, Capital Strengh, Risk and Growth.

Strategic Management Framework
Kohl's Strategic Management (SMF) Framework provides a structured approach for organizations to define their direction, make decisions, and achieve long-term objectives in a competitive environment. It acts as a roadmap that aligns an organization’s vision, resources, and actions with external opportunities and internal capabilities.
Kohl's Product Value Assessment (PVA) and Multidimensional Value Analysis (MVA) are essentially embedded tools within the Strategic Management Framework (SMF) that operationalize how strategy is evaluated, prioritized, and refined—especially around product decisions.
Strategic Pricing System
Kohl's Strategic Pricing System (SPS) is a key execution tool for the SMF. It assists our clients in setting the minimum prices for loans and maximum prices for deposits. This ensures sufficient Risk-Adjusted Return on Assets (RAROA) to maintain the institution's desired capital ratio.
Significance of Strategic Pricing
The framework underscores the significance of strategic pricing in financial services, advocating the Risk-Adjusted Return on Assets (RAROA) framework to balance profitability and risk.
Focus on ROA
Emphasizing the Return on Assets (ROA) metric, it guides institutions in pricing to cover costs and manage capital.
Funds Transfer Pricing
The framework focuses on Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk using methodologies such as Funds Transfer Pricing.
Operational Cost Assignment
Time Driven Activity Based Costing ensures accurate, transparent, and detailed assignment of employee and vendor costs.
Try our Loan & Deposit Pricing Calculators
The Kohl loan and deposit pricing calculators form the core of the Strategic Pricing System. These tools determine at least the minimum price for loans and the maximum price for deposits.
By factoring in detailed origination and servicing costs, along with Funds Transfer Pricing from KohlAG's assessment, they provide fully risk-adjusted and costed pricing. This approach ensures alignment with an optimized Risk-Adjusted Return on Assets, preserving at least the institution's current capital ratio.
