HUGE UNTAPPED POTENTIAL AT THE ‘BOTTOM OF

THE PYRAMID


Note: MFI – Micro Finance Institutions; NGO – Non Governmental Organisation; SHG – Self Help Groups

Two-thirds of India’s population lives in rural areas where financial services have made few inroads so far. Rural India, however, has seen steady

rise in incomes creating an increasingly significant market for financial services.

There are several standalone networks of SHG, NGO’s and MFI’s in different parts of rural India. Cross-utilisation of these channels can facilitate

faster penetration of a wider suite of financial services in rural India.

Increasing use of technology to reach rural India is the paradigm-shifting enabler. Internet kiosk based channels are expected to become the

bridge that connects rural India to financial services.

Rural credit segment is a large market, which can be tapped by ensuring timely loans which are critical to

agricultural sector.

Self Help Groups and NGOs are useful vehicles to make inroads into rural India.

Credit

Safe investment options have a potential to tap into rural household savings.

Some private players are coming up with innovative products like 3rd party money market mutual funds to

cater to rural investment needs.

Investments

Agricultural, livestock and weather insurance are potentially large markets in rural India.

Harnessing existing networks of MFIs, NGOs can speed up the process.

Market size to reach US$ 350-400 billion by 2020.
