Sector Classification

Situate the investment opportunity within sustainability focused sector, subsector and industry classifications.
Sector

Financials

Development need
Since COVID-19, banks adopted a more conservative approach for lending to MSMEs, resulting in a decline in the number of MSME credit accounts (4.20%) with the sharpest decline in the number of Micro credit segment. (1) People in remote locations and those with low income (limited savings) mostly rely on informal sources for financial services. (2)

Policy
Financial Services Authority's (OJK) Structural Framework 2021-2025 focuses on development of financial services ecosystem by increasing the role of Financial services sector (FSS) in supporting priority economic sectors, MSMEs, job creation and regional development, including directing all Financial Service Institutions (FSI) to expand services to MSMEs (especially in remote areas). (3)

Gender inequalities and marginalization issues
Indonesia has >22 mn female entrepreneurs, and majority of them face significant difficulties in accessing financial services (particularly bank loans), which limits the expansion of their businesses. (4) 51.4% women (vs. 46.2% men) have bank accounts.

80% female labor force is employed in informal sectors and millions of women lack access to financial services to address their particular needs. (5) Limited access to capital makes people living in rural areas even more marginalized. (6)

Investment opportunities introduction
Indonesia is home to 20% of all fintech companies in Southeast Asia which are expected to generate USD 8.6 bn in revenue over the next 5 years (by 2026). (7) Access to e-money encourages urbanization by reducing transaction costs for remitting. 26% urban and 22% rural population uses digital financial services for online shopping (8).

Key bottlenecks introduction
Major issue tends to be readiness of players to comply with licensing requirements with new and constantly changing regulatory frameworks. Various business models of FinTech lending players result in differing capabilities, infrastructure setup, and needs. Lack of financial literacy has trapped many consumers into an ecosystem of illegal P2P lending. (9)

Sub Sector

Corporate and Retail Banking

Development need
Middle to low expenditure per capita constitute majority of Indonesia’s working age population, with most of them lacking access to formal credit. Middle to lower expenditure segments and MSMEs are largely underserved by financial institutions. Fintech lending can tap into this issue to improve access to credit. (10)

Policy
The FSS Master Plan (MPSJKI) addresess Short-Term FSS Policy Direction (2020-2021): FSS Support for the National Economic Recovery Program (PEN) and the 2021-2025 Structural Framework which focuses on three areas: (1) Strengthening Resilience and Competitiveness; (2) Financial Services Ecosystem Development; and (3) Digital Transformation Acceleration. (11)

Gender inequalities and marginalization issues
In 2016, 53% micro, 51% small and 34% medium enterprises were owned by women. 40% women compared to 28% men consider bank procedures to be complicated.

Women face constraints at the personal, household and social levels. Foremost, women feel handicapped by the pressure to balance their responsibilities at home and the need to focus on their business. Women generally devote a significant portion of their business income to household needs, which limits reinvestment in their business (12).

Based on data on the development of micro, small, medium and large enterprises by the Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Culture in Indonesia in the 2014-2018 period, 99.99% of the 64 mn business units in Indonesia are Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Around 60% of the number of MSMEs are managed by women.

Majority users of FinTech are urban households, while FinTech’s penetration to rural households is still low. Compared with conventional financial services, digital financial services are faster, more efficient, and typically cheaper in reaching lower-income households and MSMEs.

FinTech companies are arguably more flexible than conventional financial institutions in providing financial services to households with little or no access to conventional financial services (12).

Investment opportunities introduction
66% consumers (Vs. 24% before Covid-19) rely on e-commerce for non-food item purchases.(13) The Buy Now Pay Later payment adoption (used for e-commerce purchases) is expected to grow steadily, recording a CAGR of 29.2% during 2021-2028. BNPL Gross Merchandise Value is expected to increase from USD 889.7 mn in 2020 to reach USD 9.22 bn by 2028. (12)

Key bottlenecks introduction
Financial literacy is on the rise, but is not commensurate and may lead to demand side challenges in acceptance of financial products. OJK's regulatory sandbox may discourage innovation in FinTech. In 2019, financial inclusion index was 76.19% and financial literacy index was 38.03%. Sharia financial literacy index also up surged from 8.1% (2016) to 8.93% (2019). (14)

Market Risks & Scale Obstacles

Majority of the population continues to rely on traditional sources of financing (banks and informal channels including friends, family or informal lenders) for varied reasons such as limited financial awareness, inadequate collateral, lack of trust in alternative sources. (21)

Market - Volatile

Debt refinancing appears to be 1 of the top 3 loan purposes, indicating the potential for ‘over-leveraged’ debt behavior and there are is no formal centralized database that can help keep this in check. (10)

Digital divide is a challenge, wherein people prefer to rely on information from friends / family Vs. information from the internet. This can be detrimental, as people can be deceived by illegal fintech lending based on word-of-mouth information. (33)

Impact Case

Read about impact metrics and social and environmental risks of the investment opportunity.

Sustainable Development Need

Promote economic growth and productivity through improved access to the formal financial system and formal credit which can potentially facilitate investments in education and business opportunities. (24)

Achieve economic growth by utilising credit to boost spending and accelerate production capability. As of 2017, Indonesia had a low loan disbursement per GDP compared to other countries, indicating that its financing capacity is not yet fully utilised. (10)

Gender & Marginalisation

Provide fair borrowing opportunities without any gender based disparity. In terms of gender distribution, 47.2% of borrowers are women and 52.7% are men. Most borrowers are individuals or smaller MSMEs, with big companies comprising only 0.10%. (25)

Increase financial inclusion across Indonesia. Koinworks realizes the market potential beyond Java (70% portfolio), and has made concerted efforts to shift at least a third of its portfolio (30%) into underserved islands, such as Sumatra, Bali, Kalimantan and East Indonesia. (34)

Expected Development Outcome

Covid-19 has highlighted the need for promoting the growth of FinTech platforms offering digital lending programs to maintain and support the recovery of low-income households in Indonesia (15)

Offering convenient access to funds and improving credit card penetration rate, which is low (only 8 mn out of 270.6 mn population) due to banks' reluctance in issuing unsecured loans, especially to younger customers will help in improving the proportion of banked population. (17)

Ensure rapid growth of the digital economy by providing financial access through a wide range of innovative and interconnected financial service products, especially in digital marketplaces and peer-to-peer (P2P) lending. (25)

Gender & Marginalisation

Promote financial inclusion by mandating ease of access to formal financial services for every level of society (underserved, MSMEs, and women) by ensuring that credit is accessible for unbanked and underbanked individuals. (25, 24 and 6)

Increasing speed and transparency and reduce costs associated with providing access to financially underserved communities through the use of tech-enabled lending platforms. (25)

Encourage the presence of more female talent for careers in the fintech industry by collaborating with industry players and offering funding support for female entrepreneurs. 77% FinTech companies claim it is easier to find male talent than women talent. (23)

Directly impacted stakeholders

People

Easy access to affordable lending solutions enables the consumers to break down large purchases into affordable weekly or monthly payments, thus making goods more accessible and allowing a bigger audience to buy (thus increasing sales).

Gender inequality and/or marginalization

Unbanked and Underserved population benefits from the convenience and accessability of obtaining loans without having to worry about their lack of credit history or collateral. 0% EMI options enable individuals to retain their funds to earn bank-interest, instead of paying all at once.

Planet

Reduce environmental burden as companies can leverage technology to decentralize their systems and offer efficient solutions without setting up brick and mortar structures.

Corporates

Corporates benefit with increased sales induced by growing purchasing power (through easy financing solutions) of the population.

Public sector

Inclusive finance not only helps borrowers who are still underbanked, but also plays a role in sustainable local and national economic growth (34)

Indirectly impacted stakeholders

Gender inequality and/or marginalization

Underserved population benefits from increased purchasing power as they are able to purchase goods which would otherwise not be affordable.

Planet

Reduction in CO2 emissions because of reduced burden on transportation services for travelling to banks.

Corporates

Profitable companies can offer better returns to their investors and grow organically to offer more complex financial products with potentially higher returns.

Public sector

Ease the burden on traditional financial services institutions that, via their brick-and-mortar offices, try to meet the credit demand of millions of Indonesians. (25)

Outcome Risks

Threat to traditional banks as limited technological know-how and slow implementation / enforcement of digital actions would allow competitors to grow stronger. (26)

Potential cyber attack (system's vulnerability to customer data theft and abuse) can impact the economy adversely with leakage of private customer information and confidential financial data (6)

Most people who rely on FinTech platforms for borrowing are first-time borrowers with no credit history. Risk of non-performing assets (NPAs) is high with an absence of credit history. (37)

Risk of default (failure to repay) or over-indebtedness arising from debt refinancing may impact the efficiency of the system and result in a potential loss for investors or lenders. (6)

Gender inequality and/or marginalization risk: Spending on things which may not be necessities can result in additional financial burden on the population.

Impact Risks

Absence of accessible financing solutions can limit improvement in quality of life of the underserved / unbanked population, and also hinder economic growth.

FinTech solutions call for a reasonable degree of digital awareness and literacy, and may leave less digitally savvy groups out of the fold of such services, thereby limiting inclusiveness of population.

Capital markets do not provide sufficient funding, nor do they represent a competitive alternative to banks. Digital financing solutions can offer an efficient alternative. (38)

Agent networks of banks are difficult to access (travel costs and commuting time) for the population residing in remote areas. (8)

Gender inequality and/or marginalization risk: Lack of regulation and control may result in exploitation of underserved population.

Impact Classification

C—Contribute to Solutions
