Small finance and payment banks are aimed at increasing financial inclusion by expanding access to financial services in rural and semi-urban areas. They specialize in relationship banking and providing credit to underserved populations like small businesses and farmers. By using a technology-driven, low-cost model and focusing on reducing transaction costs, these banks can mobilize low-cost deposits and meet funding needs in a profitable way. They are expected to play an important role in the financial system by complementing large banks and laying the foundation for greater financial inclusion across India.
Small banks and payment banks-proposed in uly 2014 by RBI- b.v.raghunandanSVS College
The document discusses RBI's recent initiatives to promote inclusive and differentiated banking in India, including small banks and payments banks. Small banks can accept deposits and lend, but will focus on small farmers and unorganized sectors within a defined local area. Payments banks aim to facilitate savings accounts and payments/remittance services for low-income groups. Eligible promoters include existing non-banking companies and telecom firms. Both small and payments banks are subject to capital requirements and regulations on activities. The goal is to increase access to basic banking services in underserved areas through localized and technologically-driven operations.
The Reserve Bank of India has proposed major reforms in banking sector with issue of guidelines for setting up “Small and Payment Banks” which will cater to marginalized sections of the Society, including migrant laborers, for collecting deposits and remitting funds.
These banks will provide a whole suite of basic banking products such as deposits and supply of credit, but in a limited area of operation. The payments banks will offer a limited range of products such as acceptance of demand deposits and remittances of funds. They will have a widespread network of access points particularly in remote areas, either through their own branch network or through Business Correspondents (BCs)/agents or through networks provided by others.

Lecture # 8 financial inclusion small finance banksHarveer Singh
Small Finance Banks are new types of banks licensed by the RBI to promote basic banking services like deposits and lending to unserved/underserved sections. They must adhere to prudential norms like commercial banks and at least 75% of their credit must go to priority sectors. Initially, 50% of their loan portfolio must be for amounts up to Rs. 25 lakh and over time they can apply to become universal banks if they perform satisfactorily. Payment banks will complement traditional banks by ensuring cheaper services and pushing for more efficient payment channels.
It's a current buzz in the banking sectors that the company like Reliance, Airtel , Aditya Birla & many more are going to make their banks soon........
1. Payment banks were introduced in India in 2015 to promote financial inclusion and provide basic banking services like savings accounts, payments, remittances to low income and rural customers through mobile and digital platforms instead of branches.
2. They have restrictions like not being able to offer loans or accept fixed deposits but can offer services like money transfers and bill payments. They aim to generate profits from high transaction volumes rather than interest income.
3. Payment banks are expected to expand access to financial services for millions of uninsured customers and support the government's financial inclusion goals, though they face challenges in gaining customer trust and competing with established banks.
This document provides an outline of topics related to payment banks in India. It defines payment banks as stripped-down commercial banks that aim to reach customers through mobile phones rather than branches. The key objectives of payment banks are to increase financial inclusion for underbanked groups. Payment banks can accept deposits up to 1 lakh rupees per customer, issue debit cards, and charge fees for services, but cannot engage in lending. Major players setting up payment banks in India include Airtel and Paytm.
Payment banks have the potential to revolutionize retail banking in India by increasing competition and expanding access to financial services. Licensed payment banks, including those run by telecom companies and India Post, can perform many regular banking functions but are restricted from lending. This model is expected to drive down costs, transform welfare programs through partnerships with Aadhaar and mobile technology, increase cashless transactions, reduce black money, and provide the government with cheaper borrowing. Payment banks may also attract customers through higher deposit interest rates, discounts, and free services in the initial phase as competition in the banking sector intensifies.

Role of New Payment banks and Small banks - Part - 6Resurgent India
RBI as a part of its push for financial inclusion, recently granted ‘in-principle’ licenses for 11 payment banks and 10 small finance banks. Apart from this, the two new universal banks- Bandhan Bank Ltd and IDFC Bank Ltd which were awarded banking licenses by the RBI recently have already begun commercial operations.
Payment banks in India were introduced to increase financial inclusion and provide basic banking services to underserved populations. The Reserve Bank of India issued guidelines in 2014 allowing for licensing of payment banks. Payment banks can accept deposits up to Rs. 100,000 but cannot issue loans or credit cards. They must invest customer funds in low-risk government securities and provide remittance, debit card, and digital payment services. Eleven entities received licenses in 2015 to operate as payment banks with the goal of serving small businesses, migrants, and low-income households across India through innovative technology and business correspondent models.
Small finance banks (SFBs) were introduced in India to increase access to banking in rural and underserved areas. Before SFBs, 35% of adults lacked bank accounts, with many low-income households having unmet credit demands. SFBs aim to deepen financial inclusion by serving small businesses and low-income communities through low-cost operations. The Reserve Bank of India issued guidelines in 2014 allowing certain qualified non-banking financial institutions to transition into SFBs. SFBs must meet requirements around capital, ownership, lending priorities, and financial inclusion. Currently there are 10 SFBs operating in India to expand access to banking and credit for underserved populations.
India Post Payment Bank will revolutionize banking in India according to RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan. The application process for payment bank licenses involves submitting applications to RBI by January 16, 2015 which will then be evaluated by an external advisory committee who will make recommendations to RBI. Payment banks will work by opening accounts based on mobile numbers and allowing transactions and remittances via mobile apps, IVR, USSD or at authorized payment bank agents. Current challenges for payment banks include India's preference for cash, providing low-cost domestic remittances, and partnerships for credit issuance.

Creating Shareholder Value in Midcap BanksJohn Rickmeier
The Benefits of Living on the Positive Valuation Slope

Planning the marketing of a multi centric diagnostic centreKavita Soni
The document outlines a marketing plan for a new multi-centric diagnostic centre. It discusses identifying target markets through research on demographics, competitors, and customer needs. A SWOT analysis is performed. The pre-commissioning stage involves hiring staff, setting prices, and creating awareness through advertisements. During commissioning, an inauguration event and ongoing promotional activities are planned. Post-commissioning, goals are set to increase referrals and revenue while providing quality service, corporate partnerships, and value-added services to customers.
Strategic planning involves defining a laboratory's strategy to withstand competitive forces by understanding industry structure, competitors' strengths and weaknesses, identifying a unique market position, and focusing on growth. It contrasts with operations management which efficiently uses resources. A laboratory should understand its industry's concentration, barriers to entry/exit, separate roles of payors/purchasers/beneficiaries, economies of scale, and powerful buyers/sellers to strategically position itself. Common positions include outpatient-centered, reference-centered, and hospital-centered testing. Strategies can fail due to straddling multiple positions, pursuing growth that does not fit capabilities, or exhibiting hubris. SWOT and competitor analyses help develop and implement effective strategies.

Financial inclusion cbt presentation feb 2011subramanian K
The document discusses financial inclusion challenges and opportunities in India, focusing on the role of government, industry, and academia in promoting financial inclusion. It defines financial inclusion and exclusion, outlines reasons for exclusion. It proposes a public-private partnership model utilizing technology to expand access to banking and credit for rural and low-income populations.
The process of ensuring access to financial services and timely and adequate credit where needed by vulnerable groups such as weaker sections and low income groups at an affordable cost” in a fair and transparent manner by mainstream institutional players”
The Committee on Financial Inclusion
(Chairman: Dr. C. Rangarajan, 2008)
In advanced economies, Financial Inclusion is more about the knowledge of fair and transparent financial products and a focus on financial literacy.
In emerging economies, it is a question of both access to financial products and knowledge about their fairness and transparency.
The document discusses trends in the microfinance industry globally and in India. Key points:
- Microfinance institutions (MFIs) have played a large role in addressing financial inclusion, though 2 billion people still lack access to financial services.
- Growth has been uneven globally, with some regions slowing down due to economic factors while Asia/Africa are growing. However, significant potential remains as financial exclusion is still widespread.
- In India, while inclusion has increased, banks have traditionally not focused on lower income groups. MFIs emerged to address this need, though their role in the ecosystem has changed over time.
The document discusses financial inclusion and exclusion in India. It notes that only 5% of villages have a bank branch and 81% do not have one within 2 km. Many groups are financially excluded including the poor, women, elderly, and those in rural areas. It outlines various initiatives taken by the government and RBI to promote financial inclusion through programs like self-help groups, nationalization of banks, and the business correspondent model. Technology is seen as an important enabler but challenges remain around appropriate business models, infrastructure, and products.
The document discusses the future of microfinance in India. It notes that microfinance has expanded rapidly in recent years, with membership in associations growing and loan amounts outstanding increasing significantly from 2001-2004 and 2001-2005 for various microfinance programs and institutions. It also discusses the growing partnership models between banks and MFIs, and innovations in how banks provide funding to MFIs. Going forward, it emphasizes the need for greater financial literacy, product differentiation, and ensuring client empowerment through education on loan terms and conditions.
The document discusses financial inclusion in India from the perspective of the Reserve Bank of India. It defines financial inclusion as providing access to basic banking services to the large segment of the population that remains excluded. It outlines various measures taken by RBI to promote financial inclusion, such as no-frills bank accounts, business correspondents, and the use of self-help groups and microfinance institutions. The results of these measures include a significant increase in the number of no-frills accounts opened and self-help groups linked to banks, expanding access to banking services for many households. Information technology solutions are seen as essential to enable doorstep banking and scale up financial inclusion efforts.
The document discusses the mobile market in emerging economies like Southeast Asia. It notes that:
1) Low-income customers who spend $5 or less per day make up the majority of subscribers in these markets, but operators can achieve high profits of 60% EBITDA or more by addressing their needs.
2) While most users currently come from cities and are young professionals, the future growth will come from connecting the remaining 65% of people in rural areas.
3) To be successful, operators need to understand the needs of both mainstream low-income users and the smaller high-end user segment, and offer services that provide value to low-income users' priorities like communication with family members working abroad.
The document discusses how businesses can profitably serve the "bottom of the pyramid" (BOP) market of the world's poorest people. It argues that the BOP represents a large potential market worth over $13 trillion. However, companies must develop new approaches tailored to the BOP, such as providing small, affordable product packages and financing options. Examples are given of companies that have successfully served the BOP through microloans, affordable healthcare, and pay-as-you-go business models. The potential benefits for companies include accessing a large untapped market while also improving lives.
P2P lending –a “financial intermediary in social democracy” – indian scenarioPrashanth Ravada
This document discusses the emergence of peer-to-peer (P2P) lending as a new financial intermediary model in India. P2P lending platforms allow individuals and businesses to access loans at lower interest rates compared to traditional lenders. The model provides a new investment opportunity for retail investors. The document notes that India's rural and semi-urban areas are underserved by traditional banks and have high reliance on informal lending. P2P platforms could help expand access to credit for small businesses and individuals in these areas by using an online platform to efficiently connect lenders and borrowers. The document examines the role and process of P2P lending in India and how it might contribute to financial inclusion.

2009 Product Innovation and Access to Finance (USAID)econsultbw
This technical report discusses product innovation and access to finance in Africa. It finds that the majority of the population in sub-Saharan Africa does not have access to formal financial services like banks, inhibiting economic growth. However, innovations in mobile money transfer, e-money and mobile banking are transforming access. These innovations reduce costs and allow new distribution models. Mobile network operators are well-positioned to provide low-cost transactions through non-traditional retail points. The report argues regulators need to support innovation without inhibiting it, and ensure risks from different financial products are appropriately managed.

Financial inclusions a pavement towards the future growthTapasya123
This document discusses financial inclusion in India and its importance for future growth. It summarizes various committees established by the Reserve Bank of India to promote financial inclusion. Key recommendations include expanding access to banking services in rural areas through business correspondents, developing differentiated banking licenses, and setting targets to provide universal access to bank accounts. However, progress on financial inclusion has been mixed as many rural villages and small businesses still lack access to formal financial services. More work is needed to make financial inclusion programs sustainable and ensure the unbanked population can benefit from banking.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

on its successful grass roots and is a means step forward for Financial Inclusion.
Fact, the real India lives in villages (Rural Economy Mkt.), while it is an emerging Economic Power, life
remains largely rooted in these villages. There are nearly three fourth of the country's consumers residing in
6.38 Lac villages, who provides a huge demand base and offers a great opportunity for all marketers both
Indian and MNCs’ based on the few characteristic features as experiencing through..
In ref. to banking Industry being the barometer of the economy… with total asset size of Rs 81 trillion (USD
1.34 trillion), is expanding continuously but on a cautious note at moment, basis of the fact that the Industry
is plagued by bad loans, the lenders have chosen to go slow in terms of credit. Off take. Fiscal 2014 saw a
combination of various external and internal events that kept markets turbulent, interest rates high and
investor confidence low, resulting in shrinking investment and GDP growth. How-ever, view this to be on
short term and to pose more opportunities of Growth, the days coming by.
Understanding Rural Market, dynamics:
Rural Mkt. is significantly predominant by informal finance sector comprising of Money Lenders,
Traders & Land Lords to that of the formal segment comprising Institutional financers.
Informal sector which is legal, but officially unrecorded and unregulated... having its identity in the
grass roots based on few characteristics comprising of Caste, Religion, Social, Political and
Geographical features, Financial Illiteracy, low cost value transactions, large distance, poor transport,
etc...Similarities among the groups, with more identity.
Backward (Deeper geo limits) having less access to Formal Finance Segment / Institutional Credit
and hence, they are more dependent on Informal Finance Sector.
Potential opportunity exists for Consumption loans in rural market through formal finance
mechanism. How-ever, the segment is marked by seasonal based employment (Specific to
Agriculture),the risk of exposure funding in this nature is high and discouraging, unless a mechanism
for sustaining regular means of lively hood is in place.
NBFCs’ having their significant identity in particular to Hire purchase, leasing operations, finance to
Traders of Agricultural pre and post related activities. In general, out-look of formal finance segment
being profitability / viability marked by regulatory requirements to be met by maintaining high
reserve ratios, Interest rate ceilings, branch licensing, directed credit etc..Constraints indirectly
proving to be a boon to Informal mkt. segment.
• Increase in educational facilities and literacy through IT and Electronic
Media
• Increase in rural income due to better monsoon in recent years along with
changing buying behavior and consumption pattern basis existence of rich
rural consumers having close contacts to urban areas.
• Improving overall Infrastructural facilities, like road, electricity, drinking,
sanitation etc.
• Rural development and investment programmes by Government agencies
• Prosperity through land reforms and adopting modern agriculture systems.
• Increase in Rural population, Remittances and Direct Investments in Rural
areas along flow of foreign goods
• Cut throat competition among market peers across all segments and
saturation of Demand in Urban areas.

With Increased focused and Investments by Govt.of India, in creating Rural Infrastructure, Employment and
promote of Literacy rate by bring in of quality educational needs, leading to rise in rural incomes and
consumption, made Rural Markets an attractive Investment opportunity.
Example to Understand: Mr. X, representing rural location earns and spend Rs.1000/- on his basic
necessities. The utility so derived is of 95-98%, vice-versa…if he being in Urban location and earns and
spends a ||r amount, the utility so measured is of 70 - 75% only… as the rest goes as Tax. In Indian ||ence, as
termed to be “Agriculture Rich Rural Economy,” with Zero-Tax on Farm Income, creating Potential Savings

that of an Individual with similar buying, termed to be as “Urban Poor,”and this being the Untapped

underserved sections of customers, including small business units, small and marginal farmers, micro and
small industries, and even entities in the unorganized sector through power of Technology.
Evident and experienced, demand and use of Mobile phone had a greater penetration in India in line with the
population growth by 80%, as its usage had tailor-made to the needs of a country with a large semi-literate
population that is living on the borders of the poverty line though rn’t capable to handle a computer…but
were capable enough to use & operate a mobile phone, and this being a key driving factor for the banks to
sustain its objectives in a more tailored fashioned manner.
New technologies, notably Mobile technology has revolutionized retail banking practices in all income
brackets, and especially in lower income segments including people living in poverty, by provide of access
to basic financial services, such as cashless money transfers, for the first time ever, without having to hold a
bank account at all.
Over 70% of Indian population residing
in rural markets, they are clearly the
