Disruptive Technologies, Customer Value Chain Compression, and Strategic Partnering are Fueling Growth
Mobile financial services (MFS) allow customers to access financial services and make financial transactions through mobile applications (apps). The use of mobile apps is playing an important role in the adoption of MFS in the Asia-Pacific (APAC), especially in areas where the mobile penetration rate is high and the population is largely underbanked. MFS is designed to address the financial access gap by enabling direct interaction between financial service providers and customers, reducing the friction in the service delivery channel.
Innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics have automated processes, accelerating the development of mobile customer journeys. Omnichannel architecture helps providers enhance the flexibility of their infrastructure and offer customers 24/7 access to financial services. Customers can even sign up for multiple financial services through a single app, bringing cross-selling opportunities to providers.
