This document outlines the key concepts of the Market Systems Development (M4P) approach. It discusses how markets often fail to serve the poor due to limited access to information, weak institutions, and high transaction costs. The M4P approach aims to facilitate sustainable change in the market system through a light-touch and flexible role. Interventions identify leverage points and partners to stimulate systemic changes, such as encouraging new relationships between private sector actors, that ultimately benefit large numbers of poor people through improved access to markets.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Martin Dietz
Regional Workshop
Bentre, Vietnam

2. Market Systems and the Poor
Smallholders often know little about
market demands and opportunities
They often live in inaccessible
places
No access to services – technical,
financial
Traders / processors find it too
expensive and time consuming to
work with many small suppliers
Institutions are weak not providing
or enforcing rules and regulations
for market actors, the environment
is not condusive for doing business
Markets are often not working for the poor
3. Market Systems and the Poor
Due to
Limited or no access to information
Weak institutional environment
High transaction cost
Monopoly or non-competitive markets
Market relations do not establish themselves
due to factors listed above
Market failures

5. M4P – Key Features of Interventions
1. Context-specific: understanding where systems are failing to serve the needs
of the poor and acting to correct those failings; understand causes rather than
only symptoms
2. Facilitative role: Sustainable change: catalytic role of development agent to
stimulate systemic change. Facilitate creation of incentives and capacities
3. Large-scale impact: explicitly aims to reach large numbers of poor by
harnessing the dynamism of the market system- seeks leverage points, co-
investment and ‘crowding’ in of market players
4. Learning & Adaptability: systems are dynamic: interventions need to be
Iterative process of change needs built-in learning to support flexible decision-
making and seize windows of opportunity.
6. Steps and Elements of the M4P Approach
• Market Analysis
• Developing a strategic framework – results chains
• Develop a vision for a sustainable market system
• Take a facilitative role as development organisation
• Identify leverage points – interventions to obtain scale
and impact

8. Steps and Elements of the M4P Approach
Gain a sound understanding of the market
system and the underlying reasons why poor
people often fail in markets.
The analysis includes
The relevance of the sub-sector to poor
people
Mapping of main actors in the sub-sector
Identification of constraints and opportunities
for poor producers
A sound analysis of why markets may fail the
poor

Level 3:

11. Level 2: Assessing specific market systems
How does the market system work?
What are its key functions,
Who are the key players
What is the overall effectiveness of the market
Competitiveness
Productivity
How does the market fail the poor?
Where are potential opportunities for the poor?
Dynamics of the system
What changes have been taking place?
What are the drivers of change?
What are the opportunities for the poor in the market system?
12. Level 3: Identify specific systemic constraints
Identify the specific causes of underperformance
What are the reasons why market systems
underperform? Assess interconnected markets
How can these impediments to performance be
overcome?
Set your focus on:
Incentives of players
Capacity of players
Relationships between players
Level 1:
The poor and their context
Level 2:
Specific market system
Level 3:

Intervention focus
13. Four steps to designing interventions
1. Understand
Assessment of market systems
Opportunities, constraints
Why does it not work?
Who could trigger change, and how?
14. Four steps to designing interventions
2. Identify Collaboration Partners
Who in the market system is most able, most
interested?
Who may have most incentives?
Why are they not making use of the
opportunity?
What are the impediments?
Solution to the cause of constraint:
What can be the business model?
What should collaborating partners do to make it work?
What should be our role to make it work?
15. Four steps to designing interventions
Private interests Public interests
…is based on
common interests
16. Four steps to designing interventions
3. Deal Making
Deal = agreement between facilitator and system actor
Defines activities that enables your partner to trigger changes in
the (support) market
Specify:
• Why you do this together
• How you do this together
• What your partner does
• What you do as facilitator

25. Facilitating Change
The essence of facilitating change is stimulating market players to
do things that they are currently not doing (or not doing well)
Stimulate changes in the market system
Seed companies train local service providers
Market-based, local service providers train
poor producers
Local service providers are paid by market actors

Systemic intervention
26. Facilitating Change
Our interventions aim at triggering changes in the
market system
Encourage seed companies to provide broad technical
training on vegetable cultivation to local service providers
Support companies in developing a curriculum (example)

Work with innovators and early adopters

28. Facilitating Change
Start small, work with few actors
Monitor closely (against results chain)
Be flexible, adapt, modify
Test the business model: do market systems changes happen?
When successful:
Make business model known (knowledge management &
learning)
Support expansion (scaling up)
Facilitate crowding in

Explicit facilitative approach
Scale often limited to
specific value chains
Aims for large scale through
leveraging with selected
partners
No explicit focus on
ensuring sustainability
Clear focus on sustainability
32. Take away message
Context is the starting point
Focus on causes not symptoms
Must consider power dynamics, governance systems
Project rationale – results chains
Sustainability = facilitative role of development actor
Aim for inclusiveness – poor men and women will benefit
Flexibility, adaptability is key
