Research and analysis highlights
Capital One's service portfolio includes consumer and commercial lending, automobile financing, treasury management services and trust services. The company is among the largest issuers of Visa and MasterCard credit cards in the US, and among the eleven largest depository institutions in the US.
Capital One entered the retail banking market in the recent past by acquiring two banks in the US. These two banks were North Fork and Hibernia. These acquisitions have helped the company's strategy of diversifying from a monoline card issuer to a financial services provider.
In North America, Capital One has adopted a strategy of acquiring cardholders who are transactors rather than those who regularly revolve a balance. Transactors are cardholders who use credit cards as their payment vehicle and tend to use credit cards frequently.
