Trend Themes
1. Passport-activated Banking - The increasing use of passport-activated banking apps can create opportunities to facilitate cross-border transactions and provide greater access to financial services for people who lack a physical presence in other countries.
2. Mobile Deposit Insurance - Deploying deposit insurance on mobile banking platforms has the potential to attract new customers by providing extra security assurance and incentivizing users to open new accounts with mobile-only banks.
3. Fintech Expansion in Emerging Economies - Fintech companies that pursue expansion into emerging economies like India can tap into a large, largely underserved market and potentially disrupt traditional banking services through innovative, mobile-first solutions.
Industry Implications
1. Banking - Traditional banking institutions can partner with fintech providers on deploying innovative solutions to stay competitive against emerging entrants targeting new customer segments.
2. Insurance - Established insurance providers can explore mobile deposit insurance as a way to expand into new geographies and customer segments that are increasingly reliant on mobile banking services.
3. Education - Educational institutions can help promote greater financial literacy in emerging markets by integrating mobile banking and investment education into their curriculum, potentially creating a pipeline of future customers for fintech providers.
