Trust is the cornerstone of long-lasting institutions, and for Indian businesses on a growth trajectory, nurturing this trust is vital. The benefits are manifold: enhanced financial performance, brand protection, improved employee morale, and customer loyalty. Highly trusted entities gain a 'trust premium,' influencing consumer decisions significantly. For instance, over 80% of consumers in the consumer industry view trust as a deciding factor when making purchase decisions, according to Deloitte US's "The Four Factors of Trust." In the realm of digital operations, trust becomes even more crucial due to compliance requirements with data protection laws and the heightened expectations around the responsible use of third-party data. Stakeholders today seek sustainable growth with greater resilience and credibility, shifting away from short-term, ad hoc growth.
In an insightful conversation with Minu Sirsalewala, Executive Editor at Dataquest, Sriraman Parthasarathy, Partner at Deloitte India, elaborates on why trust is essential for Indian businesses now and how they can proactively build and maintain it to position themselves for the next level of growth.
