As Covid-19 hit, many banks and credit unions laid off employees in customer care, while the need for support became much higher than ever before. According to The Financial Brand, 57% of customers said call center is their first choice to get support for loan. The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) had to close 20% of its transaction office and laid off more than 2,000 employees, while the number of requests from customers doubled.

Financial institutions has struggled amid the Covid-19. While they do not have enough resources to reach customers, they have to introduce various financial packages to support customers and businesses after the crisis.
