Major impact on the mobile payments industry
Consumers and businesses have been forced to drastically change their purchasing habits
Banking industry works to maintain cash access, while keeping customers safe
The economic and human impact of this pandemic is significant
Paying for stuff is, unfortunately, something we do every day! Be it with cash, cards, mobile phones or with our fingerprints and faces, we send money from one account to another. Globally speaking, cash is still king, but the payment experience is undergoing radical disruption which for the time being especially involves the act of payment more than the processing that goes on behind it. This presentation provides a description of payment processes and the new trends that are slowly but surely re-shaping the way we pay money. The authors are Philippe Collombel, Nico Valenti Gatto and Tanguy Confavreux who all work for Partech Ventures, a global venture capital fund with offices in San Francisco, Paris, Berlin and Dakar.
The Global Landscape of Digital Finance InnovationsCGAP
More than half of the world’s adult population, nearly 2.5 billion people, remain unbanked. Technology – particularly the mobile phone – has been used in recent years to extend financial services past the limits of bank branches and reach new consumers in traditionally underserved segments. Initial efforts focused on payments but have now grown to include savings, insurance and credit products delivered by digital channels, known as “products beyond payments.” Despite a dramatic expansion in the number of digital financial service deployments, the offering of these financial services are not new services. Rather, they are existing services migrated to a lower-cost digital channel, therefore offering greater scale potential. And even then, use of these channels currently remain low.
This research seeks to accomplish four objectives:
Catalog the ways in which technology, especially mobile, can enhance access or use of financial services
Provide a comprehensive landscape of the latest innovations in digital finance
Consider the current and potential impact of these innovations on financial inclusion
Identify enabling conditions and investments needed to unlock the potential of the sector
Financial Inclusion: Landscape and ChallengesJohnnyRizq
There are 2.5 billion unbanked adults around the world, mainly in developing economies. Financial inclusion is important because the lack of access to formal financial services limits the ability of poor communities to thrive economically, and also entails greater risks of fraud and theft. This presentation gives an overview of the status of financial inclusion, what it means, and how new technologies such as mobile money services could help give poor people in remote areas better access to reliable financial services.

When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it.

47. Recommendations
Incentivise
The government should
devise programs and set
incentive schemes to
welcome Fintech startups
to consider the country as
their playground.
Regulatory Environment
Regulations need to be
relaxed to allow ease of
entry of these foreign
Fintech firms into the
country.
Education is key
The educational system of
the country needs to be
revamped to highlight the
importance and the impact
of digitization and
globalization.
FinTech – not a threat
The Fintech sector should
be viewed not as a threat,
but instead as an
opportunity for growth for
the Banking industry.
Cross the Chasm
Identify weak points and
work quickly to address
them especially that the
“cash is king” mindset is
still very much prevalent in
developing countries.
Millenials
The Fintech sector should
capitalize on the millenials
as their target market since
they are the digital natives.
FinTech is an emerging sector growing rapidly with more start-ups transforming the way money is managed by making financial services more efficient, flexible and accessible to customers.
The term Fintech was originally coined as a business-to-business (B2B) business providing software and services for financial institutions. It has now expanded to business-to-consumer (B2C) applications catering to consumers’ financial transactions. These Fintech companies are mainly start-up companies that develop innovative alternative financial technological solutions built upon mobile and online technology.
This crisis spurred a widespread lack of trust of the market with the Banking industry as the Banks stopped lending to businesses and individuals. New regulations were imposed on Banks requiring more liquid assets and capital, thus, Banks shifted their focus to spend more on compliance and risk management programs.
Millenials are the largest wave of new consumers entering the work force and demanding a different financial relationship because they are comfortable with digital technology – they grew up with it and can’t live without it. They do not like transacting with the traditional Banks, and this is the opportunity that the Fintech sector exploited.
