RNCOS has recently added a new Market Research Report titled, “Global Credit Card Industry - Emerging Markets” to its report gallery. Our new research report, “Global Credit Card Industry - Emerging Markets”, states that with changing consumer spending patterns, the credit card market in emerging economies has expanded rapidly in recent years. For instance, between 2004 and 2007, the number of credit cards in Brazil and Mexico more than doubled, while the number of cards in circulation in Poland tripled.

Outstanding credit card debt in India tripled over the same period. In China, growth in the number of credit cards averaged just over 23% from 2004 to 2007, and then surged to nearly 93% in the first half of 2008.

We strongly believe that this growth trend will continue in near future as well, with a small deceleration in effect of global financial turmoil and credit squeeze. Bankers will also be a little more conscious while doing risk evaluation of credit card applicants. But the overall trend will remain positive.

The baseline for this optimistic future outlook is that governments in most of the emerging countries are encouraging credit cards usage to cut the operating cost and to avoid tax delinquencies. Consumers also prefer use of credit cards as they are safer to carry and provide credit facility as well. Beside this, there are many other benefits like reward points and discounts by merchants as well as bankers which lure customers to shop by credit cards.

This report provides extensive research and in-depth analysis on the emerging credit card markets. It will help clients to analyze the leading-edge opportunities critical to the success of emerging credit card markets. Detailed data and analysis will help the players to navigate through the evolving credit card markets in the world.

Our research provides forecast on

- Number of credit cards in China, 2008 & 2012
- Credit cards purchases in India, 2008-09 to 2011-12
- Credit cards spending in South Korea, 2008-2012

3. Philippine Banking Industry Outlook Positive Despite Recession
  The Philippine banking industry seems to be unaffected by the global financial crisis. And despite the liquidity crunch in various developed and emerging economies, the Philippine banking industry has been able to sustain the growth level.

According to a research analyst at RNCOS, “The banks in Philippines have benefitted from a series of reforms undertaken in past and intervention by the regulator to increase the capital base and to have better risk management strategies in place. The multipoint policy adopted by the industry during the last quarter of 2008 has resulted in minimum risk exposure to the banks in Philippines. Restricting dollar sales only for outward investment, enabling active lending between banks and low level of investments in foreign assets has resulted in positive outlook of the industry in current economic turbulence. Banks in Philippines have limited their investment in local blue chip companies because of the high yield from the Philippine Stock Exchange.”

Banks in Philippines are opting for high degree of penetration, mergers and acquisitions, and high credit growth rate at a time when banks in other developed and emerging economies are writing off assets base and slowing down credit disbursal rate. However, according to “Philippines Banking Sector Analysis”, a research report from RNCOS, the sector will manage to book a CAGR growth of 10% in its asset base through 2010.

“Philippines Banking Sector Analysis” contains comprehensive research and rational analysis on various segments, like assets size, income level and number of cardholders, in the Philippines banking industry.

5. M-Banking Expanding Indian Banks’ Operations in Remote Areas
  According to our new research report “Indian Banking Sector Forecast to 2012”, India’s demographic profile along with rising mobile subscriber base will make mobile transactions popular among bank customers in coming years. Majority of the Indian population is below 35 years of age and the most technology savvy among all age groups. This segment is expected to account for more than 50% of total mobile banking transactions, with continuous rise in years to come.

Mobile banking will enable banks to offer services to customers even in remote areas without having the branch network. Public sector banks are dominating the rural market, but the scenario is anticipated to change when the mobile based banking services would be launched at commercial scale.

Moreover, customers have been migrating from branch banking to the host of non-branch channels like ATMs, call centre and internet banking. With the launch of mobile banking, all Internet banking transactions can be performed on mobile phones. Customers can now transfer funds to bank accounts, pay their utility bills and do several other operations from their mobile phones.

Although the mobile banking market in India is in its nascent stage of development, there are ample growth opportunities due to large consumer base and tendency to adapt new technology services easily. It is expected that the mobile banking industry will see significant transformation once banks, cellular operators and payment service providers commercialize their services.

“Indian Banking Sector Forecast to 2012” provides comprehensive research and rational analysis on various segments, like assets size, income level and number of cardholders, in the Indian banking industry. It also studies the current performance and growth opportunities that help clients to understand various products available in the market and their future scope.
