    WSJ WSJ LIVE MARKETWATCH BARRON'S PORTFOLIO DJX MORE News, Quotes, Companies, Videos SEARCH ASIA EDITION U.S. EDITION Log In Subscribe HOME MAGAZINE DAILY INVESTING IDEAS TOP ADVISORS MARKET DATA PAID ADVISOR DIRECTORY FEATURE Synchrony: A Growing Credit-Card Powerhouse As it outpaces its competitors, the private-label giant is poised to see its shares spike later this year. Email Print 3 Comments Order Reprints By LAWRENCE C. STRAUSS February 20, 2016 Synchrony partners with 22 major retailers, including the names below, to issue private-label cards. The credit-card industry is facing head winds as major players duke it out for customers. But one part of the market isn’t getting enough credit: private-label cards, which typically are branded with one retailer and offer consumers perks that include discounts, loyalty rewards, and promotional financing. Private cards are gaining market share, growing at a 7% annual clip, compared with 5% for traditional offerings, says Bill Carcache, an analyst at Nomura Securities. The industry leader is Synchrony Financial (ticker: SYF), which was spun off from General Electric (GE) in 2014. The company has gained 12 points of market share since 2004, to an estimated 43%, according to the Nilson Report and Nomura, and its loan portfolio should grow by some 8% this year, thanks to continued market-share gains and a healthy U.S. consumer. Synchrony’s retail-card division partners with 22 merchants, including Amazon.com (AMZN) and Chevron (CVX). Synchrony “sits in the sweet spot of the [retail] payments Most Popular ecosystem, where we expect it will continue to outperform,” Carcache noted after it What Recession?

    IOSR Journal of Business and Management (IOSR-JBM) e-ISSN: 2278-487X, p-ISSN: 2319-7668 PP 24-26 www.iosrjournals.org Growth of Financial Service Sector in India Nivedhita.J Ph.D., (Part time) Research Scholar in Management, P.K.R Arts College for Women, Gobichettipalayam. I. Introduction India has a diversified financial sector undergoing rapid expansion, both in terms of strong growth of existing financial services firms and new entities entering the market. The sector comprises commercial banks, insurance companies, non-banking financial companies, co-operatives, pension funds, mutual funds and other smaller financial entities. The banking regulator has allowed new entities such as payments banks to be created recently thereby adding to the types of entities operating in the sector. However, the financial sector in India is predominantly a banking sector with commercial banks accounting for more than 64 per cent of the total assets held by the financial system. The Government of India has introduced several reforms to liberalise, regulate and enhance this industry. The Government and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) have taken various measures to facilitate easy access to finance for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). These measures include launching Credit Guarantee Fund Scheme for Micro and Small Enterprises, issuing guideline to banks regarding collateral requirements and setting up a Micro Units Development and Refinance Agency (MUDRA). With a combined push by both government and private sector, India is undoubtedly one of the world's most vibrant capital markets. II. Market Size Total outstanding credit by scheduled commercial banks of India stood at Rs 72,606.11 billion (US$ 1.08 trillion)!.
