  • Mckinsey on Payments
    Volume 8, Number 21 May 2015 McKinsey on Payments Foreword 1 Gauging the disruptive potential of digital wallets 3 While they have established a solid foundation for growth, digital wallets are by no means a guaranteed success. They must continue to evolve if they are to have a truly disruptive impact on the payments landscape. Providers can improve their chances by focusing on six “markers” for success in payments innovation. New partnership models in transaction banking 11 A number of trends are leading to a fundamental rethinking of the traditional model by which banks offer transaction banking services to clients outside their established markets. Four distinct partnership models offer the best opportunities for banks seeking to succeed in an evolving landscape. Toward an Internet of Value: An interview with Chris Larsen, 19 CEO of Ripple Labs McKinsey on Payments sits down with the co-founder of Ripple Labs to discuss the nuts and bolts of the Ripple protocol, the implications for the correspondent banking model, and the emergence of an “Internet of Value.” Faster payments: Building a business, not just an infrastructure 23 A faster payments infrastructure is not an end in itself, it is an opportunity for banks to deliver innovative products and services in both consumer and corporate payments. To monetize this opportunity, financial institutions should focus relentlessly on design, customer experience, accessibility and convenience. Faster payments: Building a business, not just an infrastructure 23 Faster payments: Building a business, not just an infrastructure To date, most discussions about building a “faster payments” system have focused primarily on speed and “plumbing.” Even more important, however, are the innovative products and services that an enhanced infrastructure will allow financial institutions to bring to market.

    Abstract Mobile banking has been anticipated as the next step in digital finance for years. It is now, suddenly emerging in the developing world as a viable option for bringing banking services to the unbanked population of the world. The first part of my research question is: what issues resulted in the slow adoption of mobile banking? I find that the main reasons is the lack of a standard, providing a framework for innovations to emerge in. The second part of my research question then follows as, what are the dynamics between standardization and innovation in the Pakistani mobile banking market? To study this I conduct an empirical study of Easypaisa, analysing it in light of Information infrastructure theory. My findings are based on three topics. Firstly, that the establishment of the OTC money transfer standard has made the original plan for expansion change direction, focusing more on innovating on top of this standard rather than trying to change the standard itself. Secondly, my findings suggest that new trends in the mobile banking industry is requiring Easypaisa to change their internal system to allow for easy integration of 3’rd parties innovators. Thirdly, they suggest that the strong regulation of the branchless banking industry in Pakistan both enable and constrain innovation in the industry. I find that Easypaisa’s exploratory and bottom up approach to development have enabled them to be flexible enough to handle the regulatory standards imposed by the government and have enabled them to establish the OTC standard money transfer option. Further they suggest that the scaling of mobile banking solutions requires standard to emerge, however, it also needs flexibility to allow for innovation.
