The coming five years have been poised to be positive for the remittance industry of the country. The market is facing an intensified competition and new players are entering the market every year. To curb the intensity of the competition, both banks and MTOs are focusing on mobile transfers through launching their wallets and applications.

The savings ratio is expected to remain the same, yet the GDP is expected to grow by 3%. Moreover, the increasing numbers of startups in Fintech industry are expected to push the cost of fund transfers down in the coming years. All this will be complimented by increased security checks and safety regulations, as have already been started by DBS bank. The major point of contact in the coming years is expected to be the online and mobile transactions leaving the branch pick-up option behind.
The market is being reshaped by both traditional and new types of payment service providers. Conspicuous amongst these are new non-bank competitors, the Fintech startups mobile money players, some of whom are already well established. For instance, InstaReM and FlexM are servicing a fast-growing number of customers across the country for transfers. The fast take-up of new technology shall enable payment services to be provided at a cheaper cot, yet being efficient and effective. In an industry traditionally served by banks, these new and innovative nonbank payment providers are entering the market and rapidly gaining ground and the share of these non-banking entities is expected to grow in the review period. This development is expected to accelerate the bank initiatives and efforts in positioning themselves to offer attractive, value added propositions to both individual and corporate customers in the money transfer market.
