In order to prove the conversion potential for the e-commerce sector in Germany in terms of con- crete values, a survey with a representative sample was conducted to directly determine the usage of the 21 e-commerce providers and the willingness to obtain financial services from these brands. The survey shows that a total of 61 percent of respondents are willing to use financial services provided by the brands analyzed. The results reveal that the conversion potential for embedded finance in Germany is already very high and, in view of the particularly high approval rates among younger respondents, is still growing. The analysis thus directly confirms earlier studies from the USA for the German market for the first time. Executive summary 4 What is embedded finance? „Banking is necessary, banks are not.“ This is how Bill Gates summed up his view of the development of the financial industry back in 1994. 27 years later, financial services are still generally handled by banks. More recently, however, Gates‘ forecast seems to be material- izing – banks have long since ceased to be the sole providers of banking services. Fueled by the massive wave of digitalization, embedded finance - also known synonymously as contex- tual finance and contextual banking – is spur- ring on a shift to „banking without banks”.

  • MCED Access to Finance Briefing
    Access to Finance and Community Economic Development Solutions Pat Conaty Localise West Midlands – Community Economic Development Project Discussion Paper October 2012 The double-dip recession in the UK has highlighted the access to finance issue. John Stuart Mill observed in 1844 that business slumps are characterised by credit rationing problems by banks and that stimulating new investment is crucial. i The credit crunch problem is currently deep and apparently structural. Diverse methods by the Coalition government over the past year have thus far failed to turn the problem round. Bank lending to all businesses according to Bank of England data has declined by 17% over the past four years and collapsed by £4 billion in the three months to May 2012. ii This paper examines the access to finance issue both in relation to the current crisis but also more broadly in relation to enterprises and organisations that even in good times find it very hard to secure investment from the banks. This is particularly a major issue in the UK because of the intensive centralisation and concentration of banking. The paper also looks at a broader range of solutions that have been developed by community economic development methodologies, the co-operative sector and by government intervention. Finally the policy context will be examined and ways proposed for developing a new more socially and financially inclusive approach to local economic development. 1. Bankability and access to finance – the barriers in the UK Banking and high street lending has changed beyond recognition since the regulatory changes introduced in the 1980s in the lead up to the Big Bang.

  • Next-Gen Technology Transformation in Financial Services
    April 2020 Next-gen Technology transformation in Financial Services Introduction Financial Services technology is currently in the midst of a profound transformation, as CIOs and their teams prepare to embrace the next major phase of digital transformation. The challenge they face is significant: in a competitive environment of rising cost pressures, where rapid action and response is imperative, financial institutions must modernize their technology function to support expanded digitization of both the front and back ends of their businesses. Furthermore, the current COVID-19 situation is putting immense pressure on technology capabilities (e.g., remote working, new cyber-security threats) and requires CIOs to anticipate and prepare for the “next normal” (e.g., accelerated shift to digital channels). Most major financial institutions are well aware of the imperative for action and have embarked on the necessary transformation. However, it is early days—based on our experience, most are only at the beginning of their journey. And in addition to the pressures mentioned above, many are facing challenges in terms of funding, complexity, and talent availability. This collection of articles—gathered from our recent publishing on the theme of financial services technology—is intended to serve as a roadmap for executives tasked with ramping up technology innovation, increasing tech productivity, and modernizing their platforms. The articles are organized into three major themes: 1. Reimagine the role of technology to be a business and innovation partner 2. Reinvent technology delivery to drive a step change in productivity and speed 3. Future-proof the foundation by building flexible and secure platforms The pace of change in financial services technology—as with technology more broadly—leaves very little time for leaders to respond.

  • The Factors Influencing the Adoption of In-Store Mobile Payments: a Validation and Extension Study
    THE FACTORS INFLUENCING THE ADOPTION OF IN-STORE MOBILE PAYMENTS: A VALIDATION AND EXTENSION STUDY ZANÉ DIPPENAAR University of the Free State E-mail: [email protected] Abstract- The aim of this study is to identify the factors influencing the adoption of in-store mobile payments. The development of mobile-phone technology is changing consumer demand and behaviors. Consequently, businesses are becoming ever more mobile orientated, offering mobile shopping, mobile payments and in-store mobile payments to consumers. The goals of in-store mobile payments are to i) save consumers time and ii) to facilitate cashless transactions. Regardless of the fact that businesses offer in-store mobile payments and the convenience thereof, consumers adapt slowly to this offering. Thus, the research question that emerged is “What are the factors influencing the adoption of in-store mobile payments?” The hypotheses of this study examine the relationships between the influencing factors and consumers’ behavioral intention to use in-store mobile payments. The empirical study implemented a non-probability sample was used, with the sample comprising of students from the Business Management Department at the University of the Free State who owns a smartphone, but has no prior experience with in-store mobile payments. The results of the study indicated that initial trust, self-efficacy, relative advantage and compatibility have a significant positive influence on the intention to adopt in- store mobile payments. Furthermore, perceived risk was found to have a significant negative influence on the intention to use mobile payments in-store. The findings of the study provide guidance for developers and marketers of in-store mobile payments in developing a marketing strategy that would enhance the use of in-store mobile payments.

What I was going to do over the next 25 minutes is tell you in Telefónica Europe how we've delivered in the past and actually how we're going to deliver our commitments as part of Telefónica commitments. What I'm going to start by doing is just talking a little bit about our performance and how we performed against the competition. So the market is fast changing. But what we've managed to do, I think, is move ahead of the market in Europe. And the key thing we do here is we make efficiency gains continuously so we don't just respond to market conditions. We continually drive efficiency gains and we continually drive in the customer experience. And we continue to invest in the customer whatever the market environment is. What you can see on the first chart is absolute evidence of that. So if you look at the 12-month to June '09 actually we drove about 44% of the net adds across our markets. The great news is that every one of my businesses produced a higher share in the 12-month to June '09 than they did in the 12-month to June '07.

Dla akademickiego finansisty, by∏ego wieloletniego mened˝era bankowego, taka kilkutygodniowa podró˝ to Êwietna okazja do zapoznania si´ z setkami najnowszych publikacji anglo- i niemieckoj´zycznych z dziedziny szeroko rozumianych finansów, a tak˝e do rozmów z tamtejszymi uczonymi, z dyrektorem Instytutu prof. Lutzem Kruschwitz'em na czele. OczywiÊcie, rozmawialiÊmy o finansach: zarówno o realnych zjawiskach i procesach finansowych w Niemczech, w Polsce i w USA, jak i o tendencjach w nauce finansów, a ÊciÊlej w naukach finansowych.

  • The Future of Banking Is Open
    Visa Consulting & Analytics The Future of Banking is Open 1 Visa Consulting & Analytics Open banking What it is, why it matters, and how banks can lead the change If a consumer wants to block out the world around them, a single app gives them access to hundreds of thousands of songs and podcasts; over time, this app learns about their tastes and suggests new tunes for their listening pleasure. As technology evolves and artificial intelligence becomes more pervasive, consumers are beginning to ask why managing money cannot be as intuitive as managing music? Data is a key ingredient in offering personalized financial services, but it has been traditionally hard for consumers to share sensitive information with third parties, in a secure and consistent way. In response, financial innovation globally by both traditional and emerging players has taken place. This has led to an increase in financial innovation globally that is driven partly by the market and partly by regulation. As the world responds to the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the clear outcomes is accelerated digital engagement, something that can only be done quickly and at scale through an open ecosystem and the unbundling of financial services. In this paper, we look at what open banking is, the way some of the world’s most forward-thinking banks are responding, and how Visa Consulting & Analytics can help in transforming your business. 2 Contents What is open banking, and why does it matter? What is driving open banking? What are the consumer considerations? What are the commercial implications for ecosystem players? How are banks responding? Five strategies to consider How can Visa help you take the next step on your open banking journey? 3 What is open banking, and why does it matter? Broadly put, the term open banking refers to the use of APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) to share consumers’ financial data (with their consent) to trusted third-parties that, in turn, create and distribute novel financial products and services.
