Finance Sector Challenges

6

1.  The finance crisis in 2008 started a chain reaction that impacted regulation, credibility and business models of banks

2.  More regulation and requirements on capital have limited banks’ capability to lend to business customers

3.  Digital currencies and especially underlining technology, like blockchain, enables new ways to make transactions without payment processors and banks

4.  People and companies are more critical towards finance institutions and service costs, e.g. in fund raising, wealth management and asset management

›  Leads to try alternative providers

›  Crowdfunding and p2p lending have emerged

5.  Goldman Sachs has estimated that the alternative finance addressable market is $3.3 Trillion

6.  Average growth rate of the UK alternative Finance market is 159%

Companies need to engage emotionally with their customers

A robust social media strategy is quickly becoming table stakes for reaching target consumers

Collaboration

Grow Advisors material

Two categories of fintech and digital finance

Approach based on products

1. Digital transaction processing

•  Payments

•  Money transfer •  Process

transactions to 3rd parties

•  Success based on # of transactions

2. Digital finance services and instruments

•  Investing & lending

•  Instruments for alternative finace

•  Success based on long-term healty

profitability

The success of transactions and instruments are measured in very different way

How incumbents can operate in digital finance?

Form a “white label” partnership

Launch own digital finance platform

Collaborate as an investor or offer

finance instruments

Collaboration models Compete directly

Some collaboration examples

Blackrock purchased $320mio consumer debt

Santander Consumer agrees to buy 25% of

all loans issued

Estimated 80% of all loans purchased by

institutions

2/3rd of all loans purchased by HNWI, institutions, private

banks

€230 mio. agreement with Victory Park

capital to lend through platform + agreements with many institutions

Santander direct

borrowers who don’t meet traditional requirements

Four Forces Drive Disruption

New finance models and instruments

2. Distribution: Need for new scalable cost-effective

distribution channels

3. Instruments: New Alternative Finance instruments

1. Capital: Increased

requirements to have

capital for loans

4. Customers: Look for

competitive prices and better ROI

1. Better Capital Efficiency

20

Investors

•  Combining equity and lending enables, for example, to

1.  Leverage equity investments

2. Get collateral for loans

•  Investors can use platforms to attract more co-investors and syndicate investments

•  Participate in the securitization of p2p loans as an additional option to invest

Banks •  Banks have regulatory requirements (e.g. Basel II / III) to

have a certain capital ratio for their risk-weighted assets

•  Even well profitable loans can tie so much capital that capital requirements make them to have sub par ROI

•  Equity investors, other lenders, different lender seniority levels and use of equity or loan from p2p as a collateral helps manage the capital ratio

•  Possible to develop instruments (funded through platforms) that can offset loan liability or in cases work as a guarantee for loans

2. More Effective Distribution

21

Platform as a Customer Interface

•  Investors and lenders can operate in equity and lending platforms

•  Platforms take care of many needed processes like customer acquisition, origination, KYC, Due Diligence, collection

•  Typically possible to choose a risk level

•  Open API also enables to automate a part or all of this work

•  Requires trust in platforms, and agreements and T&C that are in line by all parties

Automated Allocation to Smaller Ticket Size •  Pension funds and other large LP’s cannot handle small

investments (e.g. less than $500M) in a cost effective way

•  Funds to make smaller investments have significant management fees

•  Technology enables the automation of smaller investments based on given criteria

•  Hybrid models combine automated processes and professional work

3. New Instruments for Investors

22

New Finance Instruments

•  Alternative Finance offers new attractive investment opportunities and its securitizations make the market more liquid

•  Instruments to invest and lend money in platforms

•  E.g. ‘p2p trust’ type instruments

•  Securitization of online and p2p loans

•  Risk management and guarantee instruments

•  Work needed to find optimal regulatory and instrument models for these instruments (e.g. Open-Ended, Closed-Ended, ETF, or Evergreen fund)

•  Crucial to have enough data from platforms and assets

Fund Simulators •  Technically implemented investment services that work like

funds

•  Investors can define their investment criteria, e.g.

•  Geographical, industry sector, and risk level

•  No costs from traditional management work

•  Data and analytics needed to enable these products

4. Customers Expect Better ROI and Prices

23

Enable Smaller Fees

•  Competition in fund and wealth management business is more and more about lower fees and more scalable models

•  More effective and automated customer acquisition, investment processes and more scalable investment models make it possible to cut fees

•  Data, Analytics and Artificial Intelligence offer new solutions to manage and optimize investments and instruments

•  APIs to cooperate with 3rd parties

Better ROI with Alternative Finance •  Alternative Finance, e.g. p2p loans, real estate and growth

capital, offers new high return opportunities to funds and portfolios

•  More uncorrelated assets and better diversification

•  Need a scalable and cost effective solutions to invest in different assets

•  APIs to invest in Alternative Finance platforms

■  Develop fast – test – improve 3. Accelerating innovation and competence development

■  Open interfaces are needed to be fast enough and utilize ‘external resources’
