Mobile is no exception. A network effect is needed. A network effect depends on: Achieving a network effect for mobile payments is hampered by both real and perceived hurdles: 1. Enough consumers using A▪ Basic concerns: mobile to make it – Failure of contactless cards to achieve adoption compelling for merchants – Lack of a single standard for mobile payments to adopt – Low, but growing penetration of smartphones 2. Enough mobile enabled – Consumer perception of security merchants to make B▪ Consumer payment preferences and behaviors: adoption meaningful for – The mobile wallet will need to allow for the same basic consumers payment preferences that consumers have today C▪ Cost benefits to the merchant: – Merchants want to know that enough consumers will demand mobile payments, that it merits upgrading their existing systems, and implementing new marketing programs The most problematic hurdle is simply the lack of a clear value proposition for both merchants and consumers. Mobile payments are not necessarily faster, cheaper, or more reliable; and on their own they may not provide enough value for consumers or merchants to shift payment behavior. To be successful they must partner with other value added products SOURCE: Team analysis McKinsey & Company | 14 GCI-AAA123-20110606- The competitive stalemate over mobile is beginning to thaw… or is it?

  • E-Commerce Revolution in Asia and the Pacific
    Embracing the E-commerce Revolution in Asia and the Pacific Asia is the world’s largest e-commerce marketplace and continues to grow rapidly. Some countries lead. Others need to catch up. An efficient e-commerce marketplace requires information and communication technology infrastructure—including internet access, speed, and affordability—along with logistics, an effective legal and institutional framework, and social acceptance and awareness. This report reviews the opportunities and challenges in developing business-to-consumer e-commerce in the region. It also examines how Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies—blockchains, the internet of things, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and 5G wireless networks, among others—will transform the industry and unlock its dynamic potential. It also offers policy recommendations to help lower barriers to e-commerce development. About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to a large share of the world’s poor. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.

  • E-Commerce, Cyber, and Electronic Payment System Risks: Lessons from Paypal
    LESSONS FROM PAYPAL (DO NOT DELETE) 9/22/2016 4:08 PM E-COMMERCE, CYBER, AND ELECTRONIC PAYMENT SYSTEM RISKS: LESSONS FROM PAYPAL LAWRENCE J. TRAUTMAN ABSTRACT By now, almost without exception, every business has an internet presence, and is likely engaged in e-commerce. What are the major risks perceived by those engaged in e-commerce and electronic payment systems? What potential risks, if they become reality, may cause substantial increases in operating costs or threaten the very survival of the enterprise? This article utilizes the relevant annual report disclosures from eBay (parent of PayPal), along with other eBay and PayPal documents, as a potentially powerful teaching device. Most of the descriptive language to follow is excerpted directly from eBay’s regulatory filings. My additions include weaving these materials into a logical presentation and providing supplemental sources for those who desire a deeper look (usually in my footnotes) at any particular aspect. I’ve sought to present a roadmap with these materials that shows eBay’s struggle to optimize its business performance while navigating through a complicated maze of regulatory compliance concerns and issues involving governmental jurisdictions throughout the world. First, a brief look is provided at the SEC’s disclosure requirements. Second, a description of the eBay and PayPal history and business models is presented. Next, is a discussion of risk factors: credit cards; U.S. state money transmission laws; online and mobile growth; and reliance on internet access. International issues follow, with an examination of anti-money laundering, counter-terrorist, and other potential illegal activity laws. The author estimates that PayPal’s cost of accounting and legal fees and management time devoted to the discovery, examination and documentation of the perceived enterprise risk associated with e-commerce, cyber, information technology and electronic payment system risks may aggregate in the range of tens-of-millions of dollars a year.
